On My Toes

[Intro]
Uh, Breakaway on the beat
I'm talking about the highs, talking about the lows
Ya gotta stay up on your toes
Bravo!

[Verse 1]
Trust no man, cause most men waiting to see you fall
Elated to see you crumble, I see the blood on the wall
They claiming they your dawg, but underneath it all
They wanna see you crawl on your paws
And I'm so appalled, I can't bear it
Cause these cats will put you in your casket if you're napping
So never get caught on that Craftmatic mattress
Or be prepared to pull that knife from where your back is
You gotta stay up like tree tops, or stay on your toes like ballerinas
Cause people can deceive ya
Cause once your successful
Everybody has a lending hand and they can help you
Knowing that they'll go behind your back like a belt do
They bring the heat until they melt you
I'll trust these people when hell's cool, uh
So don't fall victim to the scheme
I'll never let 'em get me, I know the difference between...

[Hook x2]
The highs, the lows
The friends, the foes
The queens, the hoes
You gotta stay up on your toes, you never know

[Verse 2]
Trust no girl, cause most girls will claim they you're their whole world
And then they drive you nuts, no squirrel
They losing shine like an old pearl, but you're thinking they the one
You give 'em all your love but dirty bitches drag you through the mud
They used to be your sun and shed light through your darkness
'Til they got that letter scarlet for their harshness
So pump brakes or park it, hold emotions behind a dark tint
Or be prepared to pull that knife from where your heart is
She used to be my ride or die, now I'm getting car sick
So be cautious cause these girls can be heartless
And leave marks and, treat you like see-saws
Make you feel tall then leave you where your feet are
You wanna buy a ring cause you're thinking she's your queen
But the girl of your dreams is usually make believe, uh
So don't fall victim to the scheme
I'll never let her get me, I know the difference between...

[Hook x2]

[Bridge]
They say life is but a dream, and things ain't what they seem
And people highest up got the lowest self esteem
And cash rules everything, better get the cream
But people tend to envy as soon as you get the green
Said life is but a dream
And things ain't what they seem
But it don't matter to me
Cause I know the difference in between...

[Hook x2]
