Alright I'm dealin' with some shit homie, in the back of my head An' some shit homie, but I just rap it instead. See I got Wolverine in me But the world's throwin' stones at me Like they all gotta wit' me. Got a child's mother, an' I hate her to But that's my child's mother, so my mate to the death. It's wild how I love her, for puttin' lil' me And me and her could beef forever, she gon be there. Then some other niggas, I judged their character wrong But some other niggas, now let's get back to the song. I got a drug problem, I ain't tendin' to Because I got problems An' my solution is to problems. But if goes wrong with that Then back to PCP, an' so long with rap See I'm depressed lately, but understands That I'm lately, I'm sorta feelin' repressed lately. But y'all been an' seein' me less lately Like, has anyone noticed the lately ? Look deep nigga, I seem stressed lately? Seemed disturbed, regrets lately? Got a company - I'm signed to But they in my company, when all I need is some company. When I start feelin' like everybody's done me I'm try'na see what want wit' me. Then the mistress - yeah, the girl from Ten Minutes it's Now I'm needin' ten minutes her. I can't get it, but I want'chawl ta' know That I'll get into it, but save that for The Growth. Then, their's rap beef, but I'm so wit' me only rap beef, I don't need sec-ur-ity! Wanna get at me, go to war wit' me Thats just one for me. Check the shit - I got a whole hood, that don't this But it's not the whole hood depreciates me What'chu you gun' tell me, it's the streets that made me? An' I won't let the belly of the degrade me An' then, rap critics, they say all I make is 'dance music' But to almost anything you dance, stupid! They ain't the single, so they ain't cop the album Wouldn't a chance to it, not a second glance to it. They say, 'he wines too much, too bitter' They it, 'complainin', I call it, 'explainin' How normal could get caught-up in the game an'.. Lose they mind, an' call it, 'entertainment'. Some shit wit' me, but dude's been 'dat But I'm a lot, an' I ain't use to do that. Then this rap ain't payin' the bills, mo' money, mo' problems Or no money, mo' problems. All when you play at these stakes That's how it feels to have a on a famous face. Then, the album's 'Cause they say, 'he a single at the moment' But what 'he' is a single moment! Then I'm in the he say, she say That's in my mind on replay, day. Then, the bullshit that she say, 'he's gay' 'Cause she wouldn't like to think he ain't like her. Jus' she was throwin' it at me, an' I ain't touch 'er She'll say anything from, I ain't wanna fuck 'er Naw... I don't good, so I don't wanna go to a club Don't wanna go to a lounge, I jus' lounge! In the sweats that I had on for days Same T I had on for a week, I got on it speaks... I got on, it reeks No shape-up, chillin', 'cause that's how I'm feelin'. An' one day at a time, it's God I'm try'na see straight, but the fog buildin'. Pulse starts racin', the startin' to hate me But I gotta be a King, their's Wolves try'na play me! Hoodie when it's hot, like it's Winter Rap star, eat and sleep for An' it's hard try'na keep in ya; So I write it all down, so one day maybe life is all sweet I'll remember. Then, it's probation - I know we all go it We it, 'probation', but there's no "pro" to it Yea, my soul's achin', a few peers know Funny about the case is - it's a few years old. Had some goin' on wit' my - OH!!, that felt good, but it's bad So I'm here like, "what the bitch had?" not rap - it's real, look scrappy it's true Go on, poppin', do we look happy to you?! Now, if it goes to the wire, got the of a fighter and sloppy, or damaged like Ali. Up-late talkin' to the on the website That's the only thing send yo' man off to bed right! Fuck the World, fuck my and my girl! Well, maybe not mom, jus' lemme' calm. too won't last, this too shall pass At least that's what I say y'all, that's what I for' An' I'm the thing that's standin' in my way y'all But I be with me, it's no escape y'all... I guess depression just stepped in, an' took-over like it's known ta' do. Guess it said, 'Hey Joe, I'm goin' home Turn your off, I needa' be alone wit'chu I needa' be in the zone 'Cause I'm the only thing you prone to, Look, I own you, nigga!! Been wit'chu since 10, startin' to confuse me 'Cause it's so long, an' you still try'na lose me. Like, how could you show me cruelty? When everybody their back on you, Joe it's you an' me. Joe, you don't want me to see you Then why you always come get me, how we Tell me! I know you for me deep in your heart; Doctors, meetings, pills keep us apart. But, now you got a an' you wanna get rid of me But.. we're roommates, I'm in head, Joe you live with me.' So I write for the fans, naw', I write to my man In hopes that he'll just an' understand. Like, like... leave the kid in peace! Let me smoke one cig in peace Just leave for a second, man it's too long, an' I can't troop it As as you around, I can't make that 'dance music'.
