Minding My Business

[Verse 1]
The point of this song? See, I do what I feel
At 22, I'm like screw how you feel
More selective with the people I let stay around
I don't play around with none of y'all, got a problem with me, bruh, say it now
I keep it simple for the simple so you keep your health
You got me confused with a man who repeats himself
Come at the king, you best not miss
Come at my queen, you best not diss, get your own woman
Not a cheap one, one to hold you down, when the storm coming
Hard to come by but the wait's worth it
Interference with relationships got people murdered
I stick to my biz, I got greater worries
Such as keeping the refrigerator full
And the rhymes on point like a pencil in school
You want a verse but you wack? I ain't dealin' with you
And since you wasn't in the vid, I ain't chillin' with you, ha!

[Hook]
Up in the morning, at seven on the dot
Gettin' on the clock, working hard to raise the pot
I'm just minding my business; Berlin City representing
When the record's spinning, it's the end of the beginning
Cause I'm movin' up in the world
All that matters is the music and the love of my girl
You see I'm just minding my business; Berlin City representing
When the record's spinning - Yes! I do it for a living

[Verse 2]
No longer will I waste time with schemes of another person
Be straight with me or just disperse in the wind
Setbacks came from dependence, a brother got the urge to win
This ain't about the money, more about growth
More about hopes and dreams, more about
Going for what I need, better quality in life
And that means, visiting historic locations
Far places that I thought I wasn't gonna see in life
It means, being a better man for my woman
Less frowns, more smiles, keeping the biz runnin'
Less pork, more veggies, real talk
The unnecessary fat I take in is bad for my heart
All in all, it's 'bout staying healthy, doing my sports
No matter if I box, dance or hoop on courts
Stay away from courtrooms and who knows; I might move abroad soon
My last liberties I hold onto...

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
I'm aware of the drama, aware of the gossip
But so in my zone, I ain't got the mind to think about it
I ain't dealing with the rap scene, I'm absent
From all functions, maybe would attend if some cash was sent
But maybe not, cause then I would seem part of it
And seem associated to people I loathe
Since reputation is important, I ain't eatin' with foes
And my agenda isn't based on a weaker impulse
Such as gluttony and greed
Luckily, I rid myself of the demons that had me underachieving
And now, you can see a brother walking with his head up
Can't afford to let up, bumpin' "Mind Over Matter"
Tracy Marrow was the spark to my career as a rapper
Gotta thank the people that helped me to keep it together
When I was talking bout quittin', you was like "you bullshittin'!"
Half of my life I been spittin', now I spit for a living, so I'm...
