Mistake

[Pre-Hook]
They look at me, they don't see nothing
Once I get this cash they gon' come around
All by myself, I don't need nothing
So if you ain't with me go ahead and doubt

[Verse 1]
I done reached the point where I’m like motherfuck everyone
I'ma do this shit by myself
Got no other route I go and sit by myself
Smoke an eighth of loud and drink a fifth by myself
Prolly think I do it to get bitches and wealth
Yeah, I'm hoping that my music get me richer than hell
But if I don't let this out I feel I'm risking my health
If I couldn't write this down might end up killing myself
They don't wanna hear that tho (no they don't)
Ya’ll just want your entertainment
Play it cool like Andy Kaufman
Never come out of character and collect your payment
Fuck corporate America
Ha, there go another placement
Only writing cheer me up but only write well when I'm down
So I'm starting to think my happiness beyond attainment
Down to my last strand of saneness
I been pushed to the motherfucking brink
And they talk and they talk and they talk
But I don't really give a damn what these motherfuckers think
Rip another joint and pour a drink
Getting paid would be icing on the cake
But I prolly be wouldn't be here if I didn't have this
So if I never make it it still ain't a mistake

That's a mistake
That's a mistake
That's a mistake
And I don't do it
That's a mistake ('stake)
That's a mistake ('stake)
That's a mistake ('stake)
Don't do it

[Verse 2]
Self sabotage my own shit oh so often
I feel these last 12 months I been sleep walkin'
I’m trapped inside my mind it like a coffin
This dark place that I constantly get lost in
I’m turnin', I’m tossin', I never get no sleep
I’m burnin', I’m tossin', back liquor with my weed
My stress so high been in and out the ER
Look in the mirror and I don't even see Marc
They told me I should keep my lips taped
I would prolly sell more take it straight to the bank
I said oh hell no that's a fucking mistake
I’ll a roll a whole elbow take that shit to the face
And they say its not my place, to talk in this case
But in my city they got tanks, tear gas in your face
Police turned the streets into a militant base
And they won't hesitate to shoot the wrong color or race
And this murderer, the government pays
And Mike Brown just the latest public face
From the top down yup they're corrupt in their ways
But we’re terrified to have a discussion on race
And all the bullshit they shove in our face
To distract us outright, I'm fucking amazed
We’re too stuck in our place, to be outraged at these crimes
As they flush the Bill of Rights one page at a time
