Look... Its been some long days followed by some short nights, These days are just some short rounds in a long fight, There's been mad short comings - come complete with long suffering, Some **** rips and a spliff got my brain buffering, I refuse to stand in place - Imma forever have past due posture fees, I guess all my earnings come at the end - like an apostrophe. See I'm trying to turn all my "soon"s into "finally's, Despite Mfs speaking spitefully privately, I'm trying to be an icon - Loved and hated like Guy Fieri, I'm a Ferrari, but I been gassing me with the wrong oil, I wanted to blow, but the fire was too loo for my water to boil, I wanted to grow, but I was kicking it in the wrong soil, I was too busy confusing movement with motion, I was stepping out of line, parading feelings as emotions, I was cashing in, mistaking value with pricing, I was crapping out, was venting with my vices, I been salivating for my salvation, I been gravitating towards gratitude, and delayed gratification, I been avoiding altercations, and elevating towards elation, Cause listen.. I been off my mission, I been consistently inconsistent, I been reminiscing, Been making **** the opposite of simplistic, I been in-opportunistic, I been devastated and dilapidated, I been a lil faded and I been feeling ill-fated, I been a victim of ill-will and I'm feelin irritated, I been reaching to be featured, I been over dozing. I been living for the moment. Been under pressure and my fears be over-reaching, **** be unprecedented, I be leaning towards impeachment. It might not change **** but it sure does help to talk about it, All them nights I sat up in my bed and thought bout it, Ring around the Rhonda Rousey to all them bouts i fought bout it, I'm Jerry Rice but lousy, to all the flack i caught bout it, Frequent failure miles for all the flack I caught bout it, They telling me I'm Black then why i feel Golden? They telling me its cap - is that why i feel goated? Hardly ever pressed - is that why i never folded? Wake me from this nap- its time i smelled the Folgers. I wanna be filled the same way that i be pourin'.. Rich spirit with the survival skills of a poor man, I been getting grilled and knocked the **** out like George Foreman, And It gotta be skills the way that i be poor man, I'm in the business of building, ****** keep ******* up my floor plans, Can't let **** pass me by or am i destined to be a doorman? I'm at the right address but its safe to say I'm on the far side, I need to see the real , not just mirages and facades..
