asher roth - all add up lyrics

[verse 1]
i thought we was done, for real, it was over with
the setting of the sun, maybe i’m too old for this
recording, touring, shows, photographs are showing it
game has sucked my soul, might be time to abort the miss’
um, nah, granted i’ve been fortunate
been around, been up and down like sort of some contortionist
of course if when you start it, it’s important that you finish it
times [?] cathartic, as an artist it gets interesting
hard to not doubt everything you thought about
might never pan out the way you thought it might
so i saw a mic and i was like “well, might be down tomorrow night
but for now i’d rather drown my sorrows and be somber like…”

[chorus]
everything in your past, no, it don’t matter
you’s a professional, not some old rapper
got a code, gotta live by the [?]
let it go, gotta grow
don’t you know that it all add up?
don’t you know that it all add up?
don’t you know that it…

[verse 2]
’cause the truth was i didn’t give two f+cks
the groupies, the crew love, or trying to get new buzz
the interviews, the “who’s? what’s cool? we should do something”
envious of everyone who’s racking up a number one
dumb, rapping for the accolades
don’t you know that passion isn’t stacking up the memories
the xxl, you was on the front page
the msg, you was on that summer stage
that was dope, all the european shows
doing front flips with mac, in norway with steve aok’
mos def with magic, playing magic and madden, man
these become the moments and the only thing that matters
man, you know this
[chorus]
everything in your past, no, it don’t matter
you’s a professional, not some old rapper
got a code, gotta live by the [?]
let it go, gotta grow
don’t you know that it all add up?
don’t you know that it all add up?
don’t you know that it…

[verse 3]
stay focused, i know that it’s a challenge
but if you can reap your talent and then try to keep a balance
or maybe you can galvanize the youth out of their silence
and they can be like you and sing a tune on jimmy fallon
there’s value in everything you say and what you do
so if you wasn’t you, would you wanna hang with you?
do you speak the truth? give respect when it’s due?
showing love to all the elder ones who became before you
my position in this thing, that’s a given
i try to make a living while keeping the children driven
in each and every decision
forget

who you isn’t man
