Something You’re Not

What you doing little nigga get yo head in them books
You bout to walk inside world that's built off money and crooks
It's not a bad dream though
Just got learn how to speak
Or everybody that's around you gonna think that your weak
I don't mean physically
That's mostly used for the bums
The ones
That have no since of achievement
And bump their gums

It's their decision
So why should you go follow their game?
It's probably because they offered you some money and gains

Like pussy and power
Nothing like some sin for the flower
The only shift you evеr had
Was watching yo niggas back
To make sure
That ain't other rival camе to attack
It's sad man

Ya'll steady living in fear
Too worried bout an image that could bring yo people tears
That's why they tell you that's its all about the legend you bring
It's doesn't matter if it's shameful or you take one who breathes
Cause when you die everybody's gon remember your name

I say
Why why why
Why you gotta be
Something you're not (x2)

You'll take a bullet for them niggas
Who make up a father figure
Put work in and do the most
Replace you when you're a ghost
No mourning for little grunts
In the winter time Mommas cold
Cause instead of betting on failing
You steady betting your soul
You're life
A sacrificial thing just for greed
I know the pain of watching mom work 60 hours a week
I could say I never went and risked my life for the cheese
But I'd be lying
I really should've kept being meek
Cause the pain I would have caused
Would be more than the flaws
Of a system that has made us into scoundrels and dogs
The clause
A pause
We are just some pieces
A pawn
I kinda like it here
But really I can't wait to meet God
