Lyrics

Why didn't you quit
Just being real with you Fred like
I wasn't raised like that
Like I can lose everything bruh
And Ima still scrap
Like that's just how I was raised that's how my mother raised me
I'm very comfortable in opposition
I'm very comfortable in adversity
I'm very comfortable when I don't have all the resources
I'm very comfortable when I lose things because that was my life
Like, I was raised a certain way to do the right thing in spite of
My whole life I never had everything I felt I needed
I always felt like I was going against the odds, my whole life and so… I'm comfortable There
Yea… I was down to my last dime
Looked at my son like I swear this'll be the last time
Same time I said the same thing last time
Seen a lotta pain through these bad times
I played the game learned to mask mine
Still kept it solid like a cast iron while I'm chasing dollars in my past time
But meantime I'm still stuck in that machine grind like no sleep no time for your dreams I'm
On my pivot making every move count now
Long ways from putting them Wavs on my SoundCloud
Now I'm chilling by the waves blowing it down finna take my girl to pound town
Said you barely catch me, pop fly
But I might slide by the home base
To tell the homies that I love em I'm just living in my own space with kids I spit out no Longer have my own face
And they looking at me like I'm wearing a long cape
Super Dad… that's my nickname
If you always with the shit you a shit stain
Like tell me why you ain't legit **** been pai
Spent 10K on a bitch, when the 5th came still ain't have your rent paid
That shit fake
**** rather get a big chain than get cake
**** rather have a big name than big bank
I just look at them in disdain
Plus they slick gay
Super freaky ass **** baby Rick James
Talking bout you buy this and bi that
Few lines of that soft and you bout that
Fuck around with that dog plus you buy cat
These **** whack someone get em a Tierra… I mean Tiara
I spent most of my 20s healing scars
Shout out Demi got me feeling like a God
But really my biggest problem is consistency Ink
Mmm... yea… one of my biggest challenges, was just asking for help
So when we tell a cat, alright man you gotta be dedicated
Right… do what you gotta do
Handle your business a certain way
Cats got all type of responses right
Until something real happens
Like a real situation
To it don't matter how much money you got
It don't matter what type of car you got
It don't matter, square footage of your house
Like a real deal situation
Don't none of that other stuff matter… right
But, the work that you put in every single day
The mindset that you cultivate every single day
The spirit that you cultivate every single day
The work ethic, the dedication and commitment
That's you
That's your essence, that's who you are
