Night ride, sunroof open hoping they bite the bait Thinking 'bout some shit that transpired just the other day Lost one of my homies think my other homie did it So what good is a code if it's unwritten I ain't into introducing people it's a conflict of interest Old soul so my confidence vintage You wasn't shooting in the gym with me, but you came in time for the scrimmage You ain't even want to sign the petition They put my jersey in the rafters Not bad for a bastard Not bad for another slave captured Good money, not bad for a lame Not bad when you had a dollar to your name It's a nonstop grind, I'm here for it Even though the people closest to me still ignore it Focus on the love, nevermind who ain't rocking Because we both know you gon' show up when I'm popping They was lacing the pills and I was selling them still It's supply and demand but what I did wasn't trill Ain't gon' beat myself up I'd rather grow as a man Life is only a chance, just control what you can Not bad for a cornball Not bad for a lost cause Oh he got a little fame? Not bad for a failure Not bad when you're fake and never answer your cellular Pick up the phone I know we ain't getting along Don't want to look up and you put my name in a song This is what I do, how I get my point across How I get my feelings out, fuck it I don't wanna talk Fuck off, yeah I ain't trying to hear it I've been guarding my spirit See the pen bleed when I'm writing my lyrics Smear the blood on the pad no cycle appearing Who want static with the right interference? They put my jersey in the rafters Not bad for a bastard Not bad for another slave captured Good money, not bad for a lame Not bad when you had a dollar to your name I cut off the social media, they asked what's wrong with me? What's wrong is our mentality, I'd much rather be busy All that gossiping was never my speed Got to draw the line between our wants and our needs Take a break from the world, try to focus on me Build my credit and my faith, being all I can be Couldn't deal with denial, thought I would go to the league But you can weather the storm without a fucking degree
