[Verse 1: C-Ray]
No secret, I keep it real as shiver me timbers
Liquor swimming pools
Dipping it like I'm a fish with flippers
Make me bend the rules
Alcoholism exhibit symptoms
At 10 and 2
Trynna stay steady, but steady drifting
Penny pinching, but still find a way to get faded
Till I pull up at the pad thinking "how the fuck did I make it?"
Only thing I'm really hating is how I feel in the a.m
But quick to spend that revenue
Never knew how to say "when"
And the nigga feel like Mr. Incredible when the shots hit
I will sip a fifth and mix it with edibles till I got sick
Swinging like a pendulum, rendering me unconscious
Hanging out with whoever, but never was in the cockpit
Blacked out
Triple no chaser, I take the fast route
Blast off till last call
Then we last out
Fighting with the homies, don't even know what we mad bout
Went from jumping parties to parties who getting dragged out (dragged out)
It's been a while since the days I would go to get trashed
Steady scheming on them hoes I was hoping to smash
Ones who never try today to get over the past
The ones who tend to run away when they know it could last
But I know better, I let em go in a flash
And with no regard, my heart has been broken in half
See through the lying while they knock on my door with a mask
On the bible I am not who you know from the past
Shit I just do it like Nike or dope in the bag
The price is right you niggas ripe for your toe to get tagged
I'm never befriended by someone I'm prone to surpass
They tell me keep it real but never like when I show you the facts
And the place I'm living life I can hold in my hands
You could've been the G.O.A.T. now you just a ghost at a glance
With opportunities in focus I go for the chance
No more feeling like I'm chosen, I am supposed to advance
A nigga dope, I play the notes like I'm cutting the key
Then we can up the dose and get stuck in a dream
Always see through the frontin', I know there's nothing for free
Always been who I wanted, not who they want me to be
Now every time I drop an album I'm upping the fee
And take the music out of town for a couple of weeks
I know a lot of y'all are hurting and come for relief
Cause if you dig below the surface there's something to see
I question if I got enough for another release, I miss the rumors in the industry I don't wanna believe
Make no mistake nothing replacing my love for the beats
The bond is strong you'll never break it or come in between
And stay repping for the sick while I duck the disease
Do what the fuck we want, I know my brothers agree
More than worth it, it's my purpose to come and compete
To keep yo spot up on the turf, gotta suffer and bleed
And you haven't lived a life till they're screaming your name
Fully believing in the light that you bring to the game
And everything is on the line with your feet at the flame
In pursuit of greatness, got no time to achieve it in vain
And make a circle for protection then go and get rough
This for every time you tried and they told you "give up"
A birds eye on my perspective from burning the bud
Some of the most valuable lessons I learned em in blood
A nigga beaten by the pounder, worth my weight in gold
It still would've been the same if I'd a stayed unknown
Could never slip away, they put the shit I say in stone
As I take these hours out my day to make your favorite songs
They seek to find me and try to purpose my power
It's heavy on me
I'm only tryna purchase some flower
I learned to know my worth and how not to work with you cowards
I'm Gods wrath
You just a rat the serpent devoured
