Feels somethin' like

[x3:]
I solemnly swear
What I perform in the booth
All of it is truth

Goes somethin like this

[Verse 1:]
Uh, to whoever it may concern
If you listenin', I'm lookin' for a place to turn
See it seems like, this is all I want out of life
But it's the other way around, I wanna do right
But it's moreso a question of responsibilities
So the lights stay on, but my conscience is killin' me
Gettin' my Mariano on, pitcher perfect
Still inside, I fear the Lord like "is it worth it?"
Huh, at first I say "no"
But when I open my closet, it makes say so - f___ it
And this is hustler haven, see I'm not alone
Cause he would say that I got faith, or I got a home
So I ask God if he still love us
I don't always wanna be this drug dealin' ma'f___er but
I was playin' on, with opposite plans
And I ain't even have the decency to wash my hands

[Chorus:]
So he spoke through the clouds like

[Sample:]
Boy, stop foolin yourself
Boy, stop

I said nevermind the mistakes, and he said

[Sample:]
Boy, stop foolin yourself
Boy, stop

I said I'm tryin' to get through them gates, and he said

[Sample:]
Boy, stop foolin yourself
Boy, stop

I said I'm tryin' to switch my ways, and he said

[Sample:]
Boy, stop foolin yourself
Boy, stop

[Verse 2:]
Searchin' for a way out of the bottom
Without shootin' the 3, or tryin' to serve product
I'm really just tryin' ta defy the odds
A 9 to 5 is callin' me, but I'm tryin' ta dodge
I really wanna do the school thing
The so called not cool thing
Cause I'm gettin' tired of movin' things
So maybe Howard or Morehouse or Clark-Atlanta
But all of my friends peddle crack and spark hammers
I told em we could still be hood and do somethin' more
wit our lives
And they all look surprised like
"Wasn't you the same ma'f___er?"
"That showed us how to cook up and cut the b___er?"
I said "yeah but I guess I sort of had an epiphany"
"I'm tryin' to take this ride, and ya'll don't wanna
trip wit me?"
Got into NC Central and I was glad
I ripped my acceptance letter in half

[Chorus:]
Cause my dudes kept tellin' me

[Sample:]
Boy, stop foolin yourself
Boy, stop

Tried to change my grind and they replied

[Sample:]
Boy, stop foolin yourself
Boy, stop

I said "you changed wit time," and they was dyin' like

[Sample:]
Boy, stop foolin yourself
Boy, stop

So I changed my mind, and stayed outside like

[Sample:]
Boy, stop foolin yourself
Boy, stop

[Bridge:]
They say you are what you are, and you been what you been
Played the corner so long, I blend with the wind
Mind over matter
Money from the grind is a factor
Tryin' to get it wit mines gon' matter
You are what you are, and you been what you been
Played the corner so long, I blend with the wind
Mind over matter
Money from the grind is a factor
Tryin' to get it wit mines gon' matter

[Chorus:]
Cause everything else is really like

[Sample:]
Boy, stop foolin yourself
Boy, stop

I'm playin' tug 'o war wit myself like

[Sample:]
Boy, stop foolin yourself
Boy, stop

Cause if I try to call for some help it's like

[Sample:]
Boy, stop foolin yourself
Boy, stop

Scared to go to the Lord for help like

[Sample:]
Boy, stop foolin yourself
Boy, stop

So I just say f___ it

[x3:]
I solemnly swear
What I perform in the booth
All of it is truth

Goes somethin' like
