The Hatchet

HOOK:
I thought we buried the hatchet, but I see the axe and I notice it wasn’t in the ground
I had to let go of grudges for all of that hate on my heart had em holding me down
I had to get rid of ego inside of me, I ain’t put him in a hole in the ground

VERSE 1:
I wanna grow to be proud of the man I’ve become
And know that my family feel it
Momma just put up her house, and slept on the couch, cuz she couldn’t stand to be in it
Step-dad up and dipped, with some other bitch, and said he don’t love her no more
Told her I got her and don’t evеn trip
But if I catch him out in public
I might slap the fuck out that bitch
But for now we levеl way up
Grandma got her prayed up
Lawyer got her paid up
No more tripping off a break-up
Time to get our weight up
I don’t like to wait up
I ain’t tryna take up
No more time to make up
Any more excuses
Gotta chunk the deuces
Middle finger, motherfucker, see you later
I know that everybody gotta sleep in the bed that they made
For him it’s a grave
The life that I’m building for me and family now at this stage
All came from playing on stage
I know I’m blessed
Walking round town with an S on my chest
Know that my girl take a shit on my ex
I dodged a bullet but not overlooking the fact that I truly do wish her the best
But I know that she doesn’t wish me the best, hmmm

HOOK:

I had to let go of grudges for all of that hate on my heart had em holding me down
I had to get rid of ego inside of me, I ain’t put him in a hole in the ground

VERSE 2:
Nothing means more to me now, than holding it down for all of my people around
We been on the straight and narrow
But if anybody touching my dinero
Or if anybody wasn’t clear about it from the jump
Then I’ll shoot it straight like an arrow
You coming at any person in my inner circle
Then I’m going to war with a smile
I’m feeling reckless
My inhibitions got a death wish
Now all that my opps are left with is a hand in a death grip
Holding the logo of Lexus
Conversations with myself
I know my inner demons feeling present
I thought we let ‘em go for the investment
I guess they’re coming back with a vengeance

HOOK:

I had to get rid of ego inside of me, I ain’t put him in a hole in the ground
I wanna grow to be proud of the man I’ve become
And know that my family sound
They’re safe and they’re sound

VERSE 3:
But I started feeling different
In an instant
Inhibitions
Cuz my life’s in mint condition
What’s the price of this intention
Dissonance inside my intuition
Listening to everybody’s woes around me
While I’m sipping, kicking it inside my home
While mom’s at home and down and out
And drowning out her inner sickness
Isn’t this a bit pretentious
For me to be
Giving tips and getting rich off penmanship and flipping shit
In different ways
I celebrate and dwell on days that I was in the same predicament
Cuz I thought we buried the hatchet
But I had to take out an axe and get rid of all of the rot in my family tree for our benefit
