[Verse 1: Lute]
I'm not an introvert, I really just don't fu*k with ni**as
So to myself nowadays, it's really hard to read intentions
Funny how people who act distant say you actin' different
Trust me, if I don't fu*k with you, I keep it consistent, ah
Life's a challenge, so for balance had to right some wrongs
If it don't bring me peace, then please don't call my phone
Watch your tone, ni**as want so much, I wish I had a clone
Feelin' like Tyrese, what more you want from me?
"I just want my baby"
Lifestyle drive me crazy, who the fu*k gon' save me?
ni**as tryna play me
Contemplating daily if I should blow this b*tch up
Kick a door, then load this b*tch up, hold this b*tch up
I'm Pac, it's Bishop, you timid as fu*k, ni**as switch up
Every time a ni**a see a ni**a close to the bread
I'm close to the edge, try a ni**a
I got ni**as that'll come for your head
While my daughter sleep in comfort instead
Try a ni**a, I got ni**as that'll come for your head
[Chorus: DEVN]
Way too much goin' on, "Do Not Disturb" on my phone
Where I lay my head don't feel like home
And ni**as wonder why I be in my zone
Way too much goin' on, "Do Not Disturb" on my phone
Where I lay my head don't feel like home
And ni**as wonder why I be in my zone
Lay my head down and I pray to the Lord
Wanna be by myself
Leave me, I'll be good all alone
All good by myself, yeah
[Verse 2: Lute]
People switch up quick, that's what you find out fast
So ironic that you'll be the one to find out last
They throw stones at your character, but be a house of glass
We in this b*tch until I fu*king crash and if it's out of gas
And even then we push this b*tch to make it last, sh*t
All my life I've been pushing just to make it past sh*t
Sippin' fortys from a paper bag, sh*t
I paid my dues, who gon' pay it back?
The day I signed, I always play it back
'Cause all those nights I challenged God like "ni**a where you at?"
Yet still I pray my only peace of Heaven was the hope inside
Held back my tears, yet half the sh*t I couldn't cope inside
Never thought that my life and dreams would ever coincide
'Cause I remember nights I asked myself like "Who the fu*k am I?"
Living legend, now I'm that fu*king guy, you wonder why
'Cause fake it until you make it was always a fu*king lie
Back against the wall, my only flaw was if I never tried
Back against the wall, my only flaw was if I never tried
