00:00I've been through fire, yeah, so many times
00:10Bears on the track
00:12I've waited in darkness for all of my lives
00:20Now I wanna be free
00:25I just wanna be free, I just wanna be free
00:31I just wanna be free, I just wanna be free
00:41Winning is problematic
00:43People like you more when you working towards something not where you have it
00:46Way less support from my peers in recent years as I get established
00:50Unforgiving times, what fuck did I manage?
00:53Why is my struggle different than others?
00:55Only child is taking care of his mother, his health worse as the bills double
00:59It's not respectable all of a sudden, I don't get a pat on the back for the comer
01:03What do you see when you see me?
01:05When did all the things I mean from the bottom of my heart start to lose meaning?
01:10Maybe I shared with too many people back then and used to just feel like our secret
01:14Back when I was writing, I'd think about how they'd receive it
01:17I'd be trying to manifest the things I needed
01:19And look now, I mean it's hard to believe it even for me
01:22But you're mindful of it all when you're mindful of it all
01:25How'd it go from not wanting me at all to wanting to see me lose it all?
01:29Things get dark when my ointment starts glowing, I'm overcome with emotions
01:33Words I can't access when I'm stone sober
01:35Jealous once, still envying, niggas turn King Cobra
01:38I could only speak what I know of
01:40Man, we wrote the book on calculated thinking and I see Hanukkah drinking
01:45In rival neighborhoods linking and putting your trust in someone with the risk of financially sinking
01:50All you did was write the book on garbage-ass rollies, ego stroking, picture posted
01:56Claiming that you do it for motivational purposes only, but you just had to show me
02:01See, I know cause I study you closely
02:04I know it's a malign, I know there's people standing for nothing and getting tired
02:08I finally got the fame and fortune that I prayed for
02:11Who would've thought I would've emerged from all that gun smoke?
02:13Just for all the teenagers that want a gun tow
02:16Cause they cheaper in the hood than in the gun store
02:18You gon' lose a lot of your friends and that's what hurt the most
02:21You can't do nothing but reminisce about y'all cracking jokes
02:24You feeling like nobody love you, I know how that go
02:26You gotta love yourself, lil' nigga, that's gon' help you glow
02:29I know it might sound lame, but just stay in school
02:32They got a place that they put people who don't follow rules
02:34You probably got your mama scared, don't wanna watch the news
02:37Ready to risk your life and freedom for a pair of shoes
02:40Yeah, you say you love your switch, but they don't love you back
02:42You can hug that block all night, it ain't gon' hug you back
02:45Some of your friends gon' reincarnate and come back as rats
02:48And after y'all count the light, they ain't gon' give your mama jack
02:50Now your brother kids asking where they daddy at
02:53So you gotta lie and tell him he just took a nap
02:56You done fell out in the street, so now you trying to rap
02:58But that ain't really working for you, so it's back to track
