Got A Second?


Got a second
Got a second to listen?
are you too far, are you distant
are you busy, are you missing
are you trapped in a cage up in prison
ay yo I let em know
that I would never go
CAUSE THIS MUSIC IS ALL THAT I'LL EVER KNOW
the weak worries, actions get stuck
the sleek hurries to the top and corrupts
but like hoes that would blow me you don’t know me so whut
Im just another stranger so you just don’t give a fuck
MAKE A MINUTE TO A DAY THEN I KICK IT LIKE ITS LATE
if I make it to the top all you gonna do is HATE
do you know what is to be me
you don’t give a fuck till you see me up in TV
SO YOU HATE ME CAUSE IM REAL BUT YOU'LL LIKE ME IF I LIE
can you listen what I feel
I struggle like no other, DO IT FOR MY MOTHER
DO IT FOR MY SISTERS DO IT FOR MY BROTHER
my pops isn’t around too busy with his lover
nigga used us then he threw us like some rubbers
stripping us down for everything we had
and still trying to take the little that we have
aint saying it to brag, aint saying it to sadden
we all players to life like controllers into madden
IS IT PAIN
IS IT PAIN THAT MAKES A MAN?
I PROMISE MA, ONE DAY YOU'LL UNDERSTAND
I’ll make sure I’ll make the world mine
but it takes PATIENCE and it takes TIME
so for all of those who that wanna be haters
hate me know and don’t hate me later
im out, im heading for the winning
dont front... you were with me in the beginning
establish your position DONT YOU EVER CHANGE IT LATER


GOT A SECOND?
TILL LATER.
