Intro:
Ahm
This probably one of the greatest piece I've ever made
In my opinion
Obliterated by two of the greatest artist of all time
Also in my opinion
And so, one of
The best female lyricists of the 21st century
If I do say so myself and I do
Do it move the same consistency
Lady
[Verse 1]
They couldn’t handle us so never did they count me in
My guidance counselors did everything but counseling
Counselor:
(Like giving your demographic in the house you're in, you're living in an attic probably sleeping on the couch and um.)
Listen Mr. I don’t need your pity
I'm just a sister tryna leave the city
I see you tryna stop the leader when you see it's plenty, it's easier to buy the block than have the people leave it with me
Don't wanna hear it it's a wreck now
And my yearbook was a letdown
Cause' the girl who got C's is in tech now. And Most likely to succeed does meth now
So I don’t gotta stress how I’m better than best
And you don't gotta ask if I’m better than yes
Yes I'm better it's ever then, everything I am prevalent, heaven-scent I am better than everything that you ever been
I can't settle til’ my time is up
And the pressure made a diamond cut
It's just hard for me to trust you I don't got enough. It's something bout' a nigga hustle make him fine as fuck
Sign em' up
Yeah, it's something bout' a nigga that hustle hard that me be like- oh my- oh my god who's that
[Break]
[Verse 2]
Half empty of half full, you have a glass if it'd been me I'd have two
See now you have one empty a glass full, then you take the fucking empty to see What to add new to it
What to do to it
Turn the glass to a picture with some juice in it like Jesus in a crucifix
Water into wine wit' it
Take your time wit' it
Ever that or the blind leading the blind wit it
Non-timid
Not for the weak the black in the streets
It's non-gimmick, this is not for the tweets
This not for the blocks, in real life you not what you are
But count of what you got nigga not what you are
I don't care how you used to be
How you used to move
Whatchu' used to see
Whatchu' to do
Listen usually you living what you used of knew
Now write the fucking eulogy then get the shit a funeral
[Outro]
Uh huh
Stop living in the past motherfucker
Talking bout' how you used to do this, how you landed that. What you got know?
You still got that. I know you went away with 10
Yeah I know they had you back then
They gotchu' know?
Alright then
Let the past stay in the past
If I do say so myself and I do
[Laughing]
Yeah
