[Verse 1]
|
Last thing I'm tryna be is the good guy now
|
I ain't never gave a fuck, why should I now
|
Like the World's interrupting my song, with an interlude
|
can't you'll see I'm busy trying to balance out my chemical
|
finishing up, what you ain't even begin to do
|
when your backs against the ropes it's either him or you
|
ya'll ain't so important that my words are meant for you
|
when did everybody become so sensual
|
caught up in the he say, she say
|
blog sites, him and her, broke up
|
World star, Nah right
|
dumb fans, they believe, everything that y'all write
|
found out, friends fake, couldn't even facade right
|
pressures on, wont fail
|
nigga got too much to prove
|
would have been, lost it, but I got too much to lose
|
say what you want about Joe but I stood my ground
|
bitch, I get it up myself you just put it down
|
they say I put my whole on display, to my dismay
|
stop it, you carry-in on without logic
|
let me tell you this about Joe
|
I only say you what I want you to hear
|
you only see what I want to show
|
crushing up the percepts
|
chasing the high, sadly
|
I couldn't make this shit up if I tried
|
the forecast shows a downpour
|
y'all just made God cry, praying for my downfall
|
|
This the shit I'm talking bout right here, let me tell you niggas something
|
You can be anything in this World that you want, except for my downfall.
|

[Verse 2]
|
I'm a victim of society
|
circumstance or just feelings
|
was a nigga victimized or just willing
|
no blinds, no bags, just dealing
|
no foundation or floor plan, just building
|
check it, nights bright but the day's dark
|
covered in tattoo's, but hate art
|
these egg shell's I walk on are razor sharp
|
staring at the finish line, looking for a way to start
|
I've been called everything, an extremist
|
is that a bad thing or what they really mean is
|
anything a nigga do, a nigga mean it
|
and I won't let a person place a thing come between it
|
an opportunist is how they paint me
|
but if the nigga only knock once can you blame me
|
still I feel like my problems are great
|
shit if I don't ever solve em I'm straight
|
on the bright side, God chose me to put a lot on my plate
|
so I figured I wouldn't be bothered by the weight
|
I'm trying to change the pattern but it's on loop
|
even an outcast in my own group
|
what's it mean when everybody standing next to you
|
expects of you everything that comes with a spectacle
|
if everywhere I go I just leave behind residue
|
tell me, trust me, I won't think nothing less of you
|
|
[Chorus]
|
I'm sorry I ain't around more
|
come up with me or stay on the ground floor
|
I don't need shelter from the downpour
|
Y'all could be whatever you want, just not my downfall
|
they tryna make me slow, tryna take me, NO!
|
can't be my downfall
|
they tryna knock my grind
|
I won't stop, I'm fine
|
Can't be my downfall
|
|
[Verse 3]
|
No moment of clarity
|
the next fight showing is a rarity
|
severity of me against my growing popularity
|
rappers won't rap, I'm forced to believe they scared of me
|
but can no longer use the escape goat they not aware of me
|
so y'all can go and throw your little pot shots
|
some dudes dissed me and temporarily got hot
|
I'm getting my head right recollected
|
Y'all looking for some website resurrection
|
being that I got too much to lose
|
or maybe a slight chance that a nigga guilty
|
of all that I'm accused
|
no longer amused
|
affected my loved ones, now
|
they starting to bruise
|
and I don't want no parts of that abuse
|
wouldn't wish it upon my worst foe a day in my shoes
|
that'll just eliminate any excuse
|
and why entertain em
|
old me would' a lost my sense's
|
y'all just helping the new me regain em
|
been punched in the face,
|
it was either feed my family
|
or hunt with a .38
|
and I ain't want brunch to wait
|
I've outgrown hip hop
|
turned into a day care
|
so next time so shit is on my mind, it'll stay there
|
I'm staring at the man in the mirror
|
but it ain't helping see the man any clearer
|
so I get MIA from around y'all
|
| till God stops answering these praye |
