It's been a year since I stepped on the scene
I done met a lot of people and I learned a few things
People tryna act like brothers, boy you ain't on my team
How you acting like know me if you call me Sacheem
Nigga Please
I got my mind on bigger things in life
If I tell you how to say it, boy you better say it right
I'm tell ya how it is, I ain't tryna be polite
Correct me if I'm wrong but if I'm wrong then I'm right
Every song that I've sung, every bar that i write
Are simply sentences that help me understand my life
My brother this is all factual
Straight thoughts
Life manual
Work hard and do shit you can't handle
Uh, you mishandled for counting me out
I been counting all my blessings
Manifesting my route
I keep checking my surroundings, keeping check of my doubt
But everybody keep checking me out
Well I guess thats how it be like
I don't want the glitz or the glam
If I'm never with the fam
That don't feel right
They gotta understand
I'm executin' plans
I'm just tryna get the team right
Now, nigga thats your mans
Acting like a fan
Tell my why it be like that?
Well I guess thats how it be like
I knew this back in grade 12
People telling me poetry and music will never pay well
But homie now i've paved a way, thru my day to day so
It's safe to say my critics never age well
It pays well when you do right
Smoke weed, stay home
Fuck drugs, you alright
Trust in yourself
Trust no one else
Feel free, put the love in ya self
Your energy is but a chain reaction
Change your thought watch the change will happen
Your life will be like u can't imagine
If u never try, you'll never know
Set it free and just let it flow
Well I guess thats how it be like
I don't want the glitz or the glam
If I'm never with the fam
That don't feel right
They gotta understand
I'm executin' plans
I'm just tryna get the team right
Now, nigga thats your mans
Acting like a fan
Tell my why it be like that?
Well I guess thats how it be like
Now everything that I project is just my own reflection
Sometimes I feel my overthinking is my only pressure
A lot of time, a lot of heart a lot of love invested
But I swear this anxiety just got it's own direction
But it's authentic so I know I got to let it shine
And this pen too fire so I got to let it rhyme
Let it simmer down
Expensive dinners now
I never thought of living life the way I'm living now
These lyrics getting slicker and I'm moving past the drama
It's hard to be apart of all this that and the third
Save that for the birds and I save that for my word
Huh, I got it written on me
The whole weight of the world just sitting on me
They not quitting on me
This shit is skin deep
I'm chasing after 3 M's like it's 10ft
While, tryna balance spirit, trust me that ain't for the weak
People know but never practise what they preach
They told me no and I went after it
Steady tryna master this
Fuck a siverline or survival
I'm out here riding till the day I die
And if it happens today, at least they know that I tried
At least the people saw me represent, everywhere I went
How you gonna make a change when you hardly making sense
Only lines upon a page, when a brother need to vent
Ain't no space for a brother in a time like this
No way
Well I guess thats how it be like
I don't want the glitz or the glam
If I'm never with the fam
That don't feel right
They gotta understand
I'm executin' plans
I'm just tryna get the team right
Now, nigga thats your mans
Acting like a fan
Tell my why it be like that?
Well I guess thats how it be like
