Never Basic

[Chorus]
I don’t need a friend
I’m hard to impress
They don’t understand I do this shit forever
People just pretend, ain’t nobody left, because they don’t understand I do this shit forever
I don’t need a friend
I’m hard to impress
They don’t understand I do this shit forever
People just pretend, ain’t nobody left, because they don’t understand I do this shit forever

[Verse 1]
I take no calls when I’m fucked up
But they got bags full of Dutch guts
Ashed to blunt in a one cup
O’s backed up like your son’s lunch
Every hour I’m a day older
Money issues like hangovers
Might black out on the bank on her
No extra life or it’s game over
My whole life I’ve been prayed over
Drunk or high
I can’t stay sober
Treat everything like a chess move
Got a studio floor as a guest room
Rolling a blunt on the way
Put it in the oven to bake, that’s investment
Green leaf, no French dressing
I schooled niggas, no quick guesses
Combos are not expected
Your 9 to 5 is not interesting
This real shit, not kid tested
Life’s a bitch, and I chin-checked it
That’s domestic abuse
Ain’t no arrest in the booth
I kept the pursuit
So why I tell them I am the only one left in the group

[Verse 2]
Don’t see defeat as an option
Money’s hard to keep in the pocket
My 9 to 5 gave me steady pay
But got stuck and I needed to blossom
Nigga’s believing the gossip
They don’t see me in the process of
Making moves paying dues, switching crews
The shit ain’t too easy to digest
Relationships get toxic
Girls make comments through text message and
Add stress and it’s all takin out of context
My mother said “Godbless”
My family think I’m godless
But thanks for the blessings
I think I needed some direction

[Chorus]
I don’t need a friend
I’m hard to impress
They don’t understand I do this shit forever
People just pretend, ain’t nobody left, because they don’t understand I do this shit forever
I don’t need a friend
I’m hard to impress
They don’t understand I do this shit forever
People just pretend, ain’t nobody left, because they don’t understand I do this shit forever

I don’t need a friend
I’m hard to impress
They don’t understand I do this shit forever
People just pretend, ain’t nobody left, because they don’t understand I do this shit forever
I don’t need a friend
I’m hard to impress
They don’t understand I do this shit forever
People just pretend, ain’t nobody left, because they don’t understand I do this shit forever
