You Decide

[Chorus:]
You decide, you decide right now
You decide, you decide right now
You decide, you decide right now

You decide, you decide right now
You decide, you decide right now
You decide, you decide right now

[First Verse:]
Making a name for myself with some help
From the books on the shelf
It’s a Catch-22, Give ‘Em Hell
Catch another fool
Talkin’ shit ‘bout the crew
No, you gotta choose now
Let ‘em loose or be yourself

I can see it in your eyes in the conversation
No patience, seeming a little blatant
How many lines you gotta spit to get the compensation?
Why you wanna ask me if I thought I saw you in a feature film?

Can’t make your decisions
Bright-made decisions to end your life
Fresh with it on a mission, right?
I’m really trying to get this tonight
And do something wrong, ‘cause I’ll travel South
No answer, I questioned how
Ancestors are less than proud?
If so, I’ll detest them now
And tell them what I can accomplish
Know the look, you astonished and I barely started

Take a little but I give a little somethin’
Back to it like I made it out of nothin’
Bad music ain’t the same, sayin’ one thing
‘cause everybody sayin’ they be eatin’
And they hungry for somethin’
I’m feastin’ on meals that they paid for
And they think I’m fake like a dummy?
I think it’s funny
How I get up on my grind
Like I’m bored, and with time
I get smarter with money

In my head, in my head, instrumental
No time for your fucked-up arpeggios
Who will make it? I can’t take it
I’m tryna save it, I’m tryna save it
I’m runnin’ races - fast

Know it’s bad when I can’t think of verses
Know it’s bad when it’s fucked-up after rehearsal
Know it’s bad when we argue about shit that ain’t certain
Yet you want to change, well is it worth a little pain?
You decide

[Chorus:]
You decide, you decide right now
You decide, you decide right now
You decide, you decide right now

You decide, you decide right now
You decide, you decide right now
You decide, you decide right now

[Second Verse:]
That’s black on the market, red on the carpet
Dead when they mess with the artists and star shit
Heartless
Heard the 808s in the projects
Creatin’ all the concepts, feelin’ like an object
Singin’ all the songs, stringin’ me along
Leavin’ it alone, breathin’ ‘til you’re gone
Made another choice, played another pawn
Meet me in the dust, stay until the dawn

I’m a Contra, listen, contradict addiction
Winnin’ by decision, no innings but the ninth cloud
Not enough strife for the pride, you decide
Whether I should oblige all the lies? You can die
Pink skies, motherfucker, dark nights, and I’m shining so bright
‘til the wrongs turn right, shed light on the cause-and-effect
All the pauses, it ends when the song is recorded

And I’m just doing me
Young dream with a beat
Young lean on that whip
Lookin’ real real cool
Got a brand-new hit
Gonna get this shit
On a whole new sound
In a whole new ground
And I’m making these rounds
Standing on a new platform
Stand up, understand what I stand for
Understand, not a grand that I ask for
I’m a man, I’m advanced, shit I’m bearfore
Give it time, do it right, when you plan for
You just ruined my life with your plans though
How could you stop with it when you just promised it?
I’m just an optimist, you’re such a pessimist
I was a narcissist, you lost all interest
In making my confidence Boost, like a mobile phone

“Fucking hate you,” text you sent me
Let’s be honest, done with venting
Said that you care but that shit was a fallacy
You can be simple, I’m Complex like magazines
Practiced at modesty, look at the prophecy
You could be leaving behind
Shit’s so hard to find
I really know that I was out of line
But you could save me so much time
If you made up your mind I know it

[Chorus:]
You decide, you decide right now
You decide, you decide right now
You decide, you decide right now (right now, right now, oh)

You decide, you decide right now
You decide, you decide right now (you decide right now)
You decide, you decide right now (oh, you decide, you decide, right now)
