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)
