Loading...

in the name of allah, the beneficent, the merciful
i’m just trynna be purposeful
memorized your verses too

maybe just a verse or two
maybe one. oh what? nothin
i was just asking to bless
all of my supporters really

everyone in the world
with good intentions by your definition
um…please help me to focus on my mission

um…thank y’all, that’s all, and amen
a lot of people had a ball, but i did not
do not, can not wait till i’m done with college

every days a struggle every days a puddle
every nights a well
every week’s a creek
every month’s a pond
every years a drought you see we wonder where it’s gone
promptly after which we make a promise that we keep
promptly after which we party on and party long
promptly after which somebody murdered in the street
depending where you be

every decade is a slave in a noose over old man river… mississippi
every second i’m rapping i lose someone that’s wit me
every second i’m living i lose someone that’s living
every day i wake up and they already gone
i been round here 20 years that’s already long

hoping that i finish, or i finish when i’m hoping, or i’m close
cuz when you think they bout to toast you
then they prolly right behind thee

they gonn catcher in the rye me
took it to the pastor asked him “why me?” – he ain’t know
he prolly did – he prolly lying – he ain’t slow
told em take it to the bridge, but we ain’t go

imma keep on rapping right through every single hook
put a little chorus at the end of the track
catch me in the study reading every single book
ask me why i did it – well i did it cuz i’m black

trynna break the mold here
imma go where no one wanna go here
on my own, never on my lonely
tried to date a couple girls that still don’t really know me

i was talking this into success way before i had connects or any monies
you can ask my homies
way before i was poppin i was popular low-key
every university they know me, or know someone that know me

or know someone that owe me
a lot of people owe me but i’m never bout the re up and i never will be
had to face the fact that some of yall will never feel me
no matter how many raps or books or plays
cosigns scores or encores on stage

no, i can’t explain how it feels successful
because im not successful. i’ll never be successful
even when i’m successful that is only in the finite
and i’m only approaching the success in the infinite game

that’s the trick to the game – its how you strive
not how you arrive, or contemplate a procedure, execute, and derive
wash up, dress up, then glance at my schedule
start handing out fives

just to see my people when they get a little glory
just to give em dap
just to spread the love

thugs’ demeanor dissolve to a godly smile
inside everybody is a child…

this is how i feel when i wake
this is how i feel when i wake
this is how i feel when i wake up

ain’t got no friends
ain’t got no ends
ain’t got no happy days
ain’t got long to live

i ain’t got long to live
i ain’t got long to live
oh, but i got what i got

and i got love
they can’t take it from me
i got love
can’t take it from me

ain’t got love to live
i ain’t got to live
i got songs to give
