Verse Tryin' my best to stay focused, for me and the fam I gotta hang on But it's hard to do when every move you made feel like your parades been rained on But mama told me son don't worry, or stress too much about problems Which is real advice cuz when it come to strife in this life u know everyone got em (damn) I don't wanna be no failure takin' up space or a waste of potential Ask anybody they'll tell ya, u can never erase what u been through It can rearrange one's mental, does it fuel ya fire do u lose it Success I heard is no accident, it only comes to those who choose it Been comin' out with that new sh**, in my opinion been slept on Haters gone talk but I'm used to this, it don't never stick, I'm like Teflon Everybody claim they the next on, waitin' on release like an ex con New in the game, u all cool and the gang Tryna build up a name and put the rest on Bridge But these n***as get green wit envy, when you good at something they not One minute they shine in my city, next thing you know they get shot These n***as really green wit envy, when you good at something they not One minute they shine in my city Next thing you know they get shot Chorus Who am I, well they call me A, one of these days I can say I'm the greatest Tell me that the flow is sick but that don't mean sh** if it ain't contagious Like to write what I feel, only that real when I fill in these pages I'm bringing all my insights from life and the lessons learned at all stages (2x) Verse sh** is all good til it go bad, made it too far can't go back Never trickin' off, pop no tags Maybe that's the reason these hoes mad Chasing after these redbones like Dwayne Wayne did Whitley A bunch of them hoes I did dead wrong but karma came and it hit me Tellin' lies when the only thing on my mind was under that skirt Let me take the time to apologize to any and all that I hurt So now I play for team single tryna find love but it's been a no show Since I became a Star like Ringo It's hard to trust people even ones that I know Now I understand how the man works Came a long way can't stop now Do the right things put fam first f** around with them get stomped out Everybody claim they the next on, waitin' on release like an ex con New in the game u all cool and the gang Tryna build up a name and put the rest on Bridge But these n***as get green wit envy, when you good at something they not One minute they shine in my city, next thing you know they get shot These n***as really green wit envy, when you good at something they not One minute they shine in my city Next thing you know they get shot Chorus Who am I, well they call me A, one of these days I can say I'm the greatest Tell me that the flow is sick but that don't mean sh** if it ain't contagious Like to write what I feel, only that real when I fill in these pages I'm bringing all my insights from life and the lessons learned at all stages (2x) Outro Focused on the wrong things, readjusted my view I can only worry bout me, so I can give a f** about you Chasing after these hoes and wasting my dough the things I won't do Cuz I can only worry bout me, so I can give a f** about you (2x)
