greyhound - wise man lyrics

[intro:]
yeah, man, sometimes you just gotta hold your own, you know? (alright)
look, yeah, i’ve been taught an important lesson
and now i’m gonna share it with you (sometimes you just gotta be able to take in the knowledge)
listen, listen, look, look, look, look!

[hook:] x4
a wise man told me this, n-body owes me sh-t
and i’ve been growing since

[verse 1:]
if i wanna be successful
i gotta be ready for the mental commitment
just get up and get it
the pessimist in em, is gone
he’s entered remission
no more playing professional victim
get that sh-t out my head, it’s a sickness
cause with that mentality i’ll never be winnin’
n-body owes me sh-t, a wise man told me this
and i been growing since
stick out my hand, n-body’s holding it
but that don’t mean i’m full of hopelessness
i choose not to abdicate responsibility
even though i’d have to say it’s a common remedy
i might wanna take a nap today, but i refuse to
cause today i do choose happiness
no more average, i’ll make sacrifices
i have to like this, if i plan on a career
sincere, and i may be full of fear
but i take the steps regardless
cause i got the knowledge
i know what i want and desire
gotta start fanning that spark of that fire
my confidence higher than it was before
i left my past behind now i’m opening these other doors
check it, i used to scream and i’d shout for the easy way out
wishing for sh-t as i’d sleep on the couch
wasn’t leaving the house, i was staying inside
d-mn what a pathetic way of life
but i’ve come back with
a new mentality adapted
time to put my heart in it
dictionaries and thesauruses, my resources
of course it is

[hook:] x4
a wise man told me this, n-body owes me sh-t
and i’ve been growing since

[verse 2:]
i work hard, yeah i stay exhausted
and i’ve learned how to take my losses
embrace the process, gotta love the grind
i wake up, i ain’t hitting snooze one time
my life was at a low, but i turned it around on the dime
what i’ve found is just fine
cause i didn’t expect it, responsibility neglected
the way i turned my life around, boy it’s really impressive
i was playing around with the weed and the yay
i was getting high and these people would say
“boy, look out cause them drugs gonna get you”
i dropped out of school in less than a semester
i got my sh-t together, at least some what
and now i’ll never be a runner up to you dumb f-cks
dump trucks how i’m throwing out my old habits
i take action, and motherf-cker witness me create havoc
yeah i’ve broken cycles, no more idle
time on my hands, that’s what i wrote these lines for
boy, i got my own vibrato
perfect my craft, now i’m reading and studying
material to achieve cause i’m gonna win
put my demons to sleep yeah i conjure them
completely unique when i’m funneling
rhymes through various channels, barely can handle
f-ck it i’m supposed to set an example
on how to grow
take in knowledge like water to a flower though
gotta get back to your roots for your foundation
information is ground breaking, i’m feeling profound lately
i sound amazing, but once i was h-t with the venom
but then i started living right, just cause i took in the wisdom

[hook:] x4
a wise man told me this, n-body owes me sh-t
and i’ve been growing since
