44 Bars-Logic[美]
If you deal with war backwards stay far
We're dealing with truths and rights
Come some more into my sight
Yeah in London talkin' to Rhetorik 'bout
my life and shit
I thought the album was finished
but I keep writing shit
It's kind of funny how life changed
and rearranged
No matter what happens everything
ain't gon' be the same
The incredible album
what an incredible outcome
I grip the mic and then talk to the people
like I'm Malcolm
I used to think the fame
and money was the motivation
Until I toured the world
and met the people face to face and
Understood that the power
was harnessed in that basement
It ain't about the money and notoriety
It's about the people
and making a difference in society
But don't get it twisted this life
I'm living is like a movie
The godfather the Goodfella wielding an uzi
One with the people if the people
is wondering who's he
Same level the same rebel that never settled
Pullin' strings like Geppeto
who overcame the ghetto
And I know you wrote me
and I still ain't answered
Cause shit is different now it's forced upon me
Different stances
I used to spend all my time conversing with you
But now I write this song to let you know
I'm hurting with you
Shit is too big but let's be honest man
It's kinda bittersweet besides
the shows and meet
And greets y'all only see me on the street
And even then that shit is rareI
just don't go outside
Cause honestly I don't fuck with
this world I'd rather hide
That misconception cause I rap
I must be filled with pride
Shit I ain't perfect
if you heard different then someone lied
People in my ear telling me talk that shit
Actions speak louder than words
I'd rather walk that shit
Since the first album
I'm one of the highest earners on the label
Within six months I put
the second one on they table
I've played sold out shows in parts
of the world I can't pronounce
Release the tickets watch them disappear
when we announce
Fuck all that murderous syllable shit right now
Let me just bounce
The mood around me is people
smokin' that by the ounce
Leave Friday for the show
and come back Monday with a hundred grand
Don't fuck with checks so when I bounce
I prefer cash in hand
You know my first week
looking crazy due to high demand
Cause people don't buy music in
this day and age
They buy the brand
There's ups and downs don't get me wrong
But back when I ain't have shit
Felt like I would've sold my soul
to make it with this rap shit
Thank god he never
let Lucifer close enough to ask
Let me attain it by workin' hard
and busting my ass
Achieved a lot in life
but what's a lot with more to gain
At least I don't drink to avoid the hurt
we call that champagne
Come some more into my sight
