LYRICS
I got way more important things to be doing than be fucking with you
It’s empty rhetoric
I hear a lot of nothing from you
A lot of bums is with you
Don’t blame me
I tried to put you on game
You’d rather blow off steam
Whatever
Moving on from that
I never let it hold me back
Moving passed
All the bullshit
‘Cause it never lasts
Never ask
Never take it from their stash
‘Cause every time they help you out
Trust me, there’s gon’ be a catch
Yuh
And I ain’t trying ‘a get involved with all the
Toxic energy
That vibe ain’t no friend to me
Love comes and goes
Yet, relationships ain’t dead to me
Selective of the type of people I be keeping next to me
Next to me
Keep it a hunnit
Like a centipede
The best of me
I’m giving
I’m moving based on feeling
Actions is very telling
Passionate when you yelling
I got so much to give
But I can’t seem overzealous, no
My fault
Sometimes I be over thinking shit
Trying ‘a reach a level of something that’s so much bigger than
Me, they called me crazy
Constantly trying ‘a play me
Then acting like they’re day ones
And I ain’t even famous
Not yet
I got my vision
Now, I’m set
Doing it for my family
Like building upon a nest
Never been corrupted by money, power, and sex
I wanna put my people on
It’s not just about the checks
And the ones that judge the loudest
They ain’t never really bout it
Selling out behind closed doors
‘Cause they the real cowards
Yea, we see you
Who the fuck you thought that you was fooling
We see right through the bullshit
Don’t ever think we stupid
Never caught up in appearance
‘Cause there’s always that one
Selling out their own people
To only benefit some
Displaying self-hatred
Like modern-day Uncle Toms
So just ‘cause we look the same
Don’t mean you down for the cause
