[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
Uh, uh, uh
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
Look, I heard they wanna report on where I been at
To keep it simple, I done been fourthed and I done been back
And I done bent backwards for people who simply was actin'
Like they cared about nigga till I seen it was cap
I feel like all my life I been one o' the fanciest clowns
Remember all the times niggas left me stranded, to drown
I consider too many niggas as family
Now it's too many squares in my circle
Niggas can't be my route
So I'm standin' around thinkin' maybe I'm the issue
Maybe I'm thе reason solutions are hard to get to
Makin' gеneral statements, knowin' who they gon' stick to
Hoping the shoe fits when I never tried to fit shoes
All o' that bullshit is for the birds and the treetops
I'm tryna spread my wings while stayin' grounded like peacocks
And shit don't change until you detox
And time gon' tell if you pushed the right buttons like a G-SHOCK
[Chorus]
My Reebok's is red, my New Balance's blue
And shit don't always be like that, but sometimes it do
And even when you think you're stronger than Gorilla Glue
If it come to you too easy then it's too good to be true
I said my Reebok's is red, my New Balance's blue
And shit don't always be like that, but sometimes it do
And even when you think you're stronger than Gorilla Glue
You can't always focus on what other people do to you
'Cause everytime you point a finger, it's fingers pointin' at you
I'm lookin' in the mirror (Mirror)
And I really don't like what I see
I'm lookin' in the mirror (Mirror)
But I don't know who's starin' right back at me
'Cause I'm standin' face-to-face with my flaws
You sad, you mad, my bad, it's my fault
I apologize for all that I've caused
But you can't have love, get back the time lost
[Verse 2]
Uh, look, niggas be tryna cheat life, thinkin' that they slick and shit
Thinkin' they gon' miss the consequences when they hit
They gon' think they hit a lick on life, or life gon' hit a sicka lick
And bring they ass back full circle, it's all cyclic
What goes around goes around some mo', then come back to bite
You might not get yo' issue when you livin'
But that afterlife gon' be some' crazy
You really reap what you sow
Niggas plant seeds of distruction
Then hate to see when they grow
That's why I keep my distance
You callin' me out, then you gon' meet resistance
Niggas insisted that I sit and fix my image
But shit, we neva gon' reach the truth, we got conflicted interests
I'm sensin' consistent thoughts that it's my fault, and I be trippin'
So this my sorry for 2004 and every year that followed
My gut feelin' shoulda been full o' pride that I swallowed
It's really up to you if you love me or love me not
Just had to speak my piece before I peace out, peace out
[Chorus]
My Reebok's is red, my New Balance's blue
And shit don't always be like that, but sometimes it do
And even when you think you're stronger than Gorilla Glue
If it come to you too easy then it's too good to be true
I said my Reebok's is red, my New Balance's blue
And shit don't always be like that, but sometimes it do
And even when you think you're stronger than Gorilla Glue
You can't always focus on what other people do to you
'Cause everytime you point a finger, it's fingers pointin' at you
I'm lookin' in the mirror (Mirror)
And I really don't like what I see
I'm lookin' in the mirror (Mirror)
But I don't know who's starin' right back at me
'Cause I'm standin' face-to-face with my flaws
You sad, you mad, my bad, it's my fault
I apologize for all that I've caused
But you can't have love, get back the time lost
