Separate myself from the crowd
Separate myself from the clout
I didn't wait, I dealt with it now
Energy kept safe, held it down
I had help, I help with it now
Can you smell what hell brewing now?
Check yourself, don't sell ruin how
Can you cope?
You fell for the clowns
I had been marginalized
Lost enterprise
Got separated for most of the time
And now I'm trying, you pierce me with eyes
Your soul is dying, you must realize
To keep from lying, you must drop your guise
The tables are turning and tides shifting
Your clique full of bums, and some guys fibbing
Try to manage my goals, so if God wills it
I might just make it home with a smile
Ain't heard from my friends in a while
Shits getting muddy as I'm growing older
Can't find my composure, I'm stuck in a vial
Pour out my soul combination of vowels
Secretive knowledge, I can't tell you how
As long as you try, you goin' make it
Go on keep on trying 'till you reach the undertaker
No impatience on God
Blood, sweat and tears
You know I paid for it
200 years
You know I'll pay for it
Tussle with fear
You know I pay for it
Once you take a step back
You might finally see what you made for it
Blood, sweat and tears
You know I paid for it
200 years
You know I'll pay for it
Tussle with fear
You know I pay for it
Once you take a step back
You might finally see what you made for it
It was all about grind and hustle
Training mind and muscle
Tryna make life easy
I sideline the fuss
Take my mind off bucks
Place my mind on us
'Cos if we all growing that's glorious
I was stuck in the house just like cory was
'Till my mom said no more, then I hit the bus
Then, I went to my homies to catch a buzz
Then, I ended up stuck just the both of us
Tryna make my ends meet up like tinder
Spitting that heat turn the studio to cinder
I been down
Got discovered without no auditions
Reminiscing the days I enjoyed the flipping
Whenever your girl come over make sure I tip her
Shit
Slow down boy
Till the day when I run the whole town boy
But for now, guess I gotta hold down boy
Blood, sweat and tears
You know I paid for it
200 years
You know I'll pay for it
Tussle with fear
You know I pay for it
Once you take a step back
You might finally see what you made for it
Blood, sweat and tears
You know I paid for it
200 years
You know I'll pay for it
Tussle with fear
You know I pay for it
Once you take a step back
You might finally see what you made for it
