lyrics
Higher expectations now the buzz slowly growin/ so I try to play it shy on the sly but I be knowin/ so it only right I feel a lil more confident/ and the circle tighter, cautious who I conference with/ cause every hand I shake come with a new face/ and every new ball park that I'm in got a few snakes/ my bloodstream already loaded with anti Venom/ so all the underhanded shit shows me you can't be winnin/ I still feel like nigga dozed on the first tape/ but the best raw footage comes from the first take/ these box spring beats gimme some to freak on/ (what that mean?) Mattress removed there's nothin to sleep on/ learned you can't carry the whole hood put yourself first/ its not turnin ur back, I callin knowin yourself worth/ I kno home can be difficult to part with/ wanna own land, don't wanna die in an apartment/ they say ur a product of your environment, what it switched and the environments a product of me?/ a gorgeous house beautiful wife and phenomenal V/ but with the good you gotta wonder what the problem would be/ gave you the first one free, let um pay for the second rock/ now this the re up, second high straight up out the pot.
*come get while its hot.* ya kno? Yea
Even though I'm smoother than kool whip/ I no longer seem to be cool with anyone I went to school with/ if not for facebook, wouldn't know the faces/small convo wall posts happy birthday on they pages/ outside the internet, haven’t seen them all in ages/ but feelin like your the one will have you caught up in the matrix/so I'm steady tryna network and build up my net worth/ Bluetooth been pair, just forgot to connect first/ for every hood bar, I'm writtin me an execs verse/but I'm no expert, I just kno how the checks work/ it clear to see what people are about/ 10 new friends before the money even cleared in my account/ I keep a safe distance from those with shady intentions/ its not to be rude, please understand my position/ bloggers or the dj didn't pay me attention/ I refuse to suck dick to get a favorable mention/ to say I feel entitled is excessive/ you refuse to compliment the work at least acknowledge my work ethic./ so that was for the skeptic.
They say put your best foot forward, well how dumb that looks/ while u off balance still searchin for your other foot/ride or die, life or death, gotta be ready to choose/ now there's a lotta hate, dudes bein petty for juelz/ I'm just gettn known, face better for news/ but when the dice thrown gota b ready to lose/ willin to jeopardize everything that matter/ great risk, great reward, but they don't talk about the latter/ my whole lifestyle changed, the money scent lingers/ eating in restaurants where they don't even speak English/hard decisions like a coupe or bent/ even my closet got the new car scent/told niggas if all u got is clothes, u aint getin cash yet/holla at me when u own real-estate and assets /im still middle class, but wrap it up is how I was taught/ so I get to invest the money u payin in child support/ my lifes a movie, motion picture in this bitch/ I already know my role, yall just sticking to the script.
