Smakd Boi - They Tell Me lyrics
They tell me They tell me But I tell myself So as I They We gifted I speak the truth They tell me no They always on my back to go back to school Think putting down my master plan is cool I don't want to be you Playing by the rules Like I give two Or got something to prove I'd rather work hard and chase my dreams Than to pay out the ass to read at l tri c If that's you then do the dead But don't dare diss me for perusing my dreams Ima have to cool you down just wait for their heads to steam Everybody see me shining like some high beams My souls bursting at the seams Our futures bleak so we play a beat Empty my soul and pouring out my heart I've had the key to remain sane from the start They tell me Pick up the pace cause the race wont change I aim to join this crazy game Cause the drive in my veins is driving me insane They tell me I'll never be more than a drop out Never make it further than I am right now But I tell myself I'm a renegade so I'm a work to change it It's about winning not being famous So as I hit this They flip sh*t We gifted and lifted I speak the truth god as my witness They tell me no but I never listen They tell me to get a better job Why the hell you think I use this pen to jot down all my thoughts cause y'all be broke if I'm on top Ha Stop if you thinking that you work harder I'm in my prime like wayne on the carter I'm on a mission Get y'all to listen Tell them my story no contradiction I got a sickness Cant stop spitting That's my infliction That's my vision I see it clearly H.D. my mind is like a television No decision choice was made for me they say it's destiny I don't belive in that But I belive some folks can't even rap So I put my name on the line For the sake of the rhyme Put my pen in my hand In the place of a nine that's how I'ma fight back Ima show you how it feel when a dark knight snap And I never unmask I'm on the attack For them wack ass rappers Y'all just disaster Y'all claiming real But y'all just actors Plastic cast people that work hard we Call them masters Y'all ain't pros never said one thing original Do I sound confident You don't even know I don't belive in myself I belive in a flow cause I know it's what's gunna get me far Even if we fall back let's reach for the stars Because in the worse case we back where we are And the best we sitting with a plat living large They tell me Pick up the pace cause the race wont change I aim to join this crazy game Cause the drive in my veins is driving me insane They tell me I'll never be more than a drop out Never make it further than I am right now But I tell myself I'm a renegade so I'm a work to change it It's about winning not being famous So as I hit this They flip sh*t We gifted and lifted I speak the truth god as my witness They tell me no but I never listen So as I hit this they flip sh*t We gifted and lifted I speak the truth god as my witness They tell me no but I never listen We gifted They tell me no
