Out On Luck

[Intro]
Yeah
Uh, because I'm out on luck
You got me in a pocket with this one
Uh, Ferris
Yo

[Verse]
I see this shit clear as day (Clear as day)
Every time I drop, got these men afraid (Afraid)
Many claim that they'll reign on that center stage (They do)
I was made from a slave, now I pick my weight up (Real life)
They'll radicate the mind
They taught what they need for them to dine (Facts)
My conscious came quick, or maybe nick of time (Maybe)
I sanitate the grind with these proverbs
Work ethic absurd
In a room full of voices, observe
Try not to say a word
A dummy once told me what not to do, so in theory
A valuable lesson learned ain't all buffoonery spoken
Try to remain focused (Remain locked in)
Niggas bogus, never showed me my work
I told momma that I stole from her purse (Her purse)
Usually around the 1st, that's when the stamps came (Food stamps)
Kept hopin' she didn't noticed, and every time she noticed (Fuck)
My brother had a job, so I was on the only culprit (Yah)
After she bust my ass, I know them tears was flowin' (They was flowin')
Down her face, yet and still I'm growin'
To the man that she expect (Love you, momma)
I guess I got the message (Call you tomorrow)
Now all these life lessons what I'm left with (It's what I'm left with)
When I come from my heart, that be my best shit (That be my best shit)
Had to learn to move slow, give it time to grow
Recognize friend or foe (Even though)

[Chorus]
Got a couple close friends that I don't trust
Really wanna take a chance, but I'm out on luck
They don't got what you need, shit, well, how 'bout us?
Ayy, well, how 'bout us?
Got a couple close friends that I don't trust
Really wanna take a chance, but I'm out on luck
They don't got what you need, shit, well, how 'bout us?
Ayy, well, how 'bout us?
