[Intro]
Yea yea yea
(Labb Labb Labb)
Finally at the end man
I just wanna say thank you
I'm not gon do no long talking like I did on The Greay(t) Area
Y'know, I just wanna say thank y'all for listening
I'm making this tape in my room and to know that you out here listening to it now is fucking crazy like
It's ill
This last joint, it's not really centered on anything
Just enjoy it for what it is
[Verse 1]
I'm at the age where you watch your peers give up their dreams
They say we're young but we're so old that's how it seems
I thought i'd make it with that first tape four years ago
I'm sitting in the same spot as I write this flow
I never move
Let thеm tell it I got the juice
Thеy embellish my small pursuit 'cause this never seemed possible
And I get it I'm logical but let's make one thing clear
I asked myself so many times did you just waste four years
Yea
X my brother back home from cap and gowning
He plotting on taking over I see it the shit's astounding
He told me we'll do it better 'cause we're college educated
But he don't know that with college I'm hesitating
Does that make me less than if I don't get that paper
I'm on a flight instead of class like Imma get this paper
Conversations about life got me wishing I took a class
'Cause my story sounds bummy I'm embarrass to say I rap
Bitch I'm on my fourth tape with this same ol story
Watch some people give on me that's gon make my glory
Bittersweet I celebrate while holding back some bitter tweets
I must remember count your cheddar and let the fickle flee
Fans so eager they might ask about my fifth tape
If this don't work I might be done with these mixtapes
Ok that sounds extreme but how long do you chase a dream
Could be a perseverance model or a coulda been theme
You just a coulda been thing
Truthfully I'm in the worst position
'Cause I got some fans but no love from the music business
So to them it probably seems like I am less than
I never see you on blogs I guess you not the best then
I still dwell upon the show with twenty in Poland
Accessing my reaction's part of the process of growing
So caught on more people would've made it better
I never realized somebody told me
You made a fan forever
{Hook]
He said you made a forever
But how long's forever
I shoulda asked him
Aye
How long's forever
[Verse 2]
Managers offer all the manager talk
I might not answer my phone and let these managers walk
To new niggas gotta question why you 'round here
Play the fam to get a band that's not how we get down here
My apologies to Matt I know I did you wrong
In the moment business moves I guess I shoulda called
I hate the fact you had to find that shit on gram pages
Glad that shit is good we planned on tearing down stages
I send my praises all my brothers keep me motivated
In times that I be blind they tell me that they see my greatness
Dual addresses if I had to bet the house on us
I keeping mine plus another once the money up
Remember back in 08 was copping mixtapes
Me and X cartoon tees with spray paint
Get to school the next day like did you listen to it
I wonder if some kids react like that when I drop music
The other day I met my wifey's husband that was something
I can't even be mad don't got the time for loving
I know I'll settle down first I'm stacking that is after
Feeling like my lady might love just because I'm a rapper
My problem is I expect everyone to grow
Wish I could see you next season but you just playing your role
And I get it now
They might not be around
Some people stay a pawn
That's how Kroox broke it down
My trust is broken now
Unless you stay the closest
Just 'cause they been around
You cannot say you know em
Not with the Hocus Pocus
Cats talk but they be bogus
Witches they come with potion
Sail em across the ocean
Yea
I see my frustrations lead to excellence
So I make peace in the struggle 'cause the journey's heaven sent
Send my peace to my people who journey in other place
Rest in peace Chris Morris, Ms. Les and Chay
Your name gon live forever
[Outro]
Aye man I just wanna say thank y'all for listening forreal
Finally wrapping this tape up
I just want everybody out here listening to know
Make that peace in your struggle man
Find the peace
It allows you to be happy
Understand this is all apart of your journey
And that shit needs to happen in order for you to get to where you need to be, feel me
So find that peace in your struggle
And ultimately you'll make the peace with your journey
It's the hardest shit to do but
Once you more conscious of that shit
Shit is a lil easier
Thank y'all forreal man
