OG told me keep my head up, don’t let it tilt (stay strong)
Said I made it out them trenches where them boys get killed (no cap)
Life feel like a movie, but this sh*t ain’t filmed (nah)
So I peep how n*ggas move, I know these smiles fake (I know)
I don’t want none of these h*es, they come flawed (they do)
Love switch quick when they see you involved (facts)
Had to cut some n*ggas off, they was too soft (had to)
Talked loyalty but never played they part (nah)
Seen my family start changin’, sh*t hurt different (hurt)
Same ones say they love me, movin’ real distant (why?)
Mouth say one thing, actions show resentment (I see it)
That fake love hit harder when it’s close-knit (on God)
I was chasin’ love in the wrong environments (wrong places)
Saw the foulest sh*t done by the prettiest (that’s crazy)
But I ain’t mad at ‘em, we all tryna survive (I get it)
Ain’t no handbook for this life (nah)
This money route get ugly when you in it (it do)
They don’t tell you bout the nights you feel finished (exhausted)
Staring at the ceiling, thinkin’ ‘bout a million (yeah)
Plotting every move ‘cause pressure make you brilliant (real sh*t)
They say nothin’ more dangerous than a man on a mission (facts)
Especially when he broke and got mouths in the kitchen (listen)
Light bill due, kids hungry, stomach twistin’ (stress)
That’ll turn a calm soul into a menace (it will)
This everyday pain when you come from the bottom (everyday)
Don’t ask for no help, ain’t nobody got you (nobody)
Gotta solve it yourself, learn to move in silence (quiet)
They only clap for you when you make it out it (truth)
