For the Life of Me

[Intro]
Okay
This beat sounds like victory, G
Makes me feel like we already made it and shit
Look

[Chorus]
But you don't want that
You don't want that
You don't want that
Do you? Do you?
No, you don't want that
You don't want that
I can't see for the life of me
Why?

[Verse 1]
They wanna hate when I’m down and
When I’m up, try to give a shake or a pound
Them silly fucks
This feeling is building up, I will destruct
They either hating or complaining we don’t chill enough
Huh, I know I owe y’all everything
But I’m doing me and can’t hold off everything
Yeah, and now them phone calls never ring
But when I’m gone, at least I told y’all everything
A million customers served
I’m like Wayne with a cup full of syrup
I leave nothing reserved
I pour it all out, bitches I ain’t scare of nothing
Treating rap like a whore house, if you listen you can hear me coming
They got their ear to the street
So if you cheering for me
Then hold this moment close, tear on the cheek
They so emotional, now I’m getting envious stares
They know when I’m supposed to flow, I’m a breath of fresh air

[Chorus]
You don't want that
You don't want that
You don't want that
Do you? Do you?
No, you don't want that
You don't want that
I can't see for the life of me
Why?
You don't want that (Nah)
But now I know that (Yeah)
I'm in my zone with my 'dro and my cognac (Huh)
I'm tryna hold back (Why?)
'Cause 'm my own man
And I can't see for the life of me
Why?

[Verse 2]
They so bitter and cold like freezing rain
In need of change without a toll bridge on the road
Either way, we're so different, it shows
I am me and you are you, and no, there's no switching the roles
See, nobody owe them, their old sensitive ass
Like nobody owes me, I know better than that
You a cold piece, well fuck the police
We slaughter pigs, even if there's no beef, we still gon' eat
Mo-B told me, "We know you're dope at making tracks
It's overrated, let's see you go and make some scratch"
I don't know the way to act 'cause I don't play cards
I pull 'em and I don't need a poker face for that
Oh my, I am so sincere
Once the flow gets heard, then you’ll know why I wrote this verse
On short notice, I foreclose it
If cars reflect personalities, I'm proudly a Ford Focus

[Chorus]
You don't want that
You don't want that
You don't want that
Do you? Do you?
No, you don't want that
You don't want that
I can't see for the life of me
Why?
You don't want that (Nah)
But now I know that (Yeah)
I'm in my zone with my 'dro and my cognac (Huh)
I'm tryna hold back (Why?)
'Cause 'm my own man
And I can't see for the life of me
Why?

[Verse 3]
Why the money so thin when the buzz is so strong?
No hustle, no win
Older cats in my city see a youngin' go in
Then switch up from vets to some grumpy old men
I don't care about 'em, I air 'em out if it came to it
I'd rather live in the here and now 'cause I ain't foolish
Guess my relevance had planted a seed
Plus, I'm cut from the executive branch of the tree
That's why
That's why they angry and they can't smile
Should've seen it coming, being an underdog made me who I am now
They can't imagine me losing again
I tell 'em chill, I do the battle thing to lure 'em in
But still

[Chorus]
You don't want that
You don't want that
You don't want that
Do you? Do you?
No, you don't want that
You don't want that
I can't see for the life of me
Why?
You don't want that (Nah)
But now I know that (Yeah)
I'm in my zone with my 'dro and my cognac (Huh)
I'm tryna hold back (Why?)
'Cause 'm my own man
And I can't see for the life of me
Why?

[Outro]
