You should know the name We don't flow the same We don't roll the same Smoking this Lois Lane In this open lane Life's a poker game Never goes the same And it's short like a choker chain No one to blame Gotta handle that That's a how a man reacts to maintain sanity Women living in vanity fair Perfect is a fantasy She's scared to live alone Never planned for B You understanding me? I'm standing in the open Watch shadows throw shade trying focus on a face Shit is hopeless Now I face forward Onward and upward No more turns, I learned Don't be concerned you ain't heard from me I'm converting currencies Off thoughts I had currently Don't worry about me I'll be fine In the shadows I shine for the time being In the shadows I shine for the time being I talked people off the edge while I stood adjacent Only thing that keeps me sane is love & patience Lost an angel and I can't blame Satan What I'm supposed to say? He was on my shoulder coaching plays My faith took a vacation It's leaving Never stress a mess it's temporary Still gotta clean it If I say it I mean it I seen some shit That I forever carry Don't ever compare me to them No contest Long step from my square to yours That's progress We can't share the floor You going on next so What you staring for? Get busy Your bitch can't get with me I'm picky No mix drinks Straight no chaser There ain't no flavor in a hater mouth But shit stinks There's no way around it Blessings getting counted Surround by smoke Mirrors show you who the clown is
