Alright I'm dealin' with shit homie, it's in the back of my head An' it's some shit homie, but I rap it instead. See I got Wolverine in me But the world's throwin' stones at me they all gotta bone wit' me. Got a mother, an' I hate her to death But that's my mother, so that's my mate to the death. wild how I love her, for puttin' lil' me here And me and her beef forever, she gon still be there. Then there's some other niggas, I judged character wrong But they some niggas, now let's get back to the song. I got a drug problem, that I tendin' to Because I got problems An' my is to stuff problems. But if suttin' goes wrong with Then it's to PCP, an' so long with rap See I'm depressed lately, but understands That I'm depressed lately, I'm sorta feelin' lately. But y'all been hearin' an' seein' me lately Like, has anyone the regress lately ? Look nigga, don't I seem stressed lately? Seemed disturbed, lotta' regrets Got a - that I'm signed to But they ain't in my company, when all I is some company. When I start feelin' like done wit' me I'm see what everybody want wit' me. the mistress - yeah, the girl from Ten Minutes it's her; Now I'm needin' ten from her. I can't get it, but I want'chawl ta' know That I'll get into it, but I'll save for The Growth. Then, rap beef, but I'm so secure wit' me It's only rap beef, I don't sec-ur-ity! get at me, wanna go to war wit' me Thats one phonecall for me. the shit - I got a whole hood, that don't appreciate this But it's not the whole hood that me What'chu you gun' tell me, when it's the streets made me? An' I won't let the belly of the degrade me An' then, there's rap critics, they say all I make is 'dance But to almost you could dance, stupid! They ain't like the single, so they ain't cop the Wouldn't give a chance to it, not a glance to it. say, 'he wines too much, he's too bitter' They call it, 'complainin', I it, 'explainin' How niggas could get caught-up in the game an'.. Lose mind, an' y'all call it, 'entertainment'. Some shit wit' me, but dude's been knew But I'm a lot, an' I ain't use to do that. Then this rap ain't the bills, it's mo' money, mo' problems Or no money, mo' problems. All when you play at these stakes That's how it feels to have a warrant on a face. Then, the pushed-back; 'Cause they say, 'he needs a at the moment' But what 'he' is a single moment! I'm involved 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 like to think that he ain't like her. 'cause 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 wanna lounge! In the same sweats I had on for days T I had on for a week, what I got on it speaks... What I got on, it 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 Bulls startin' to me But I gotta be a King, 'cause their's Wolves try'na me! Hoodie when it's hot, like it's freezin' Rap star, eat and for dinner An' it's hard try'na this in ya; So I write it all down, so one day maybe when 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 achin', only a few peers know Funny thing about the case is - it's a few old. Had shit goin' on wit' my - OH!!, that felt good, but it's bad So I'm sittin' here like, "what the had?" It's not rap - it's real, look it's true Go on, poppin', do we look happy to you?! Now, if it goes to the wire, got the soul of a Bruised-up and sloppy, or damaged Ali. Up-late talkin' to the fans on the the only thing that send yo' man off to bed right! Fuck the World, fuck my and my girl! Well, maybe not mom, lemme' remain calm. This too won't last, this too pass At least that's what I say y'all, that's I pray for' An' I'm the only thing that's in my way y'all But I be with me, it's no escape y'all... I guess depression just in, an' took-over shit like it's known ta' do. it said, 'Hey Joe, I'm goin' home wit'chu Turn your phone off, I needa' be wit'chu I be in the zone wit'chu 'Cause I'm the only thing you prone to, Look, I own you, nigga!! Been wit'chu since 10, but'chu to confuse me 'Cause been so long, an' you still try'na lose me. Like, how could you show me cruelty? When everybody turns back on you, Joe it's you an' me.
