Made Of Stone

(album: The Revolution - 2022)

I said a prayer to the man
I did the work with my hands, yeah
I never care what they said
I ain't pay the rent with their respect, yeah
I ride with my family and friends, yeah
The Honda turned into a Benz, yeah
Ain't signing no deal with them
It's independent till I'm dead, yeah
The world is too crazy
I'm copping a crib in the middle of nowhere
You get hit with a shot from like 400 feet
If you're dumb enough to try and go there
Spending a grip on my privacy
Hang Over Gang down to die with me
Take a mil' out my PayPal and give it to homie
To find you if you trying to hide from me
Stop playing, I'm the best out
No rooms for the Billboard plaques get the guest house
Bet it all on me, till the checks bounce
Middle finger in the air and my head down
I see, I see, I see, I see life like it's the 90's
Got the baddest attitude future still so shiny
Before the hope was gone, Gameboy, playing Pokemon
In my folks garage me and the bros home alone and we smoking lots
Treated every single dollar like it's gold or something

Poof, life changed, ears, neck, wrist like the ice-age, I'm paid
The only thing different is we hit him with the blicky
If he tripping, we ain't stick him with the knife blade

It might not be a fairy-tale, but it ain't a horror story
We're all gonna' fail, we all gotta say we're sorry
I wandered off the trail, tried to find the places for me
And yeah I got it all, but it ain't what I asked for
And I ain't made of stone, but I'm going cold, nah, nah
It ain't like before we were young and bold, nah, nah
Moved away from home, made it on our own, yeah, yeah
Now we got it all but it ain't what we asked for

I made a choice and I moved
No one believed till I blew up
Now I'm the boy in the booth
Forgive me if I'm in a mood, yeah
Rappers all claim that they shoot
Cause nobody cares what the truth was
Say I'm offensive for views
But they just upset that they views suck
Hey, I got the power of God
The lowercase 't' in my name is a cross
Get hit with a round and outline 'em with chalk
We're jumping the lines like it's hop-scotch
Four years till the biggest independent
Never needed record labels, never took a single penny
I'll be happy rolling solo, like I don't know how to end it
And I don't know where I'm headed but's it's lit, lit, lit, lit
Same kid sold his bike for weed
Same kid popped pills every night for weeks
Same kid hated on they didn't like my jeans
Same kid way back, that's the kid in me
Uh, bump 'Pac, No Doubt, Offspring, old rock, Kanye
Slim Shade, Lil' Wayne taught me to get paid and I did, did, did, did
Still dream like I'm sixteen
I don't care about the money or a big screen
I still do it cause I love it and I'll shoot them if they're coming
Cause ain't nobody stopping this except me

Poof, life changed, ears, neck, wrist like the ice-age, I'm paid
The only thing different is we hit him with the blicky
If he tripping, I ain't stick him with the knife blade

It might not be a fairy-tale, but it ain't a horror story
We're all gonna' fail, we all gotta say we're sorry
I wandered off the trail, tried to find the places for me
And yeah I got it all, but it ain't what I asked for
And I ain't made of stone, but I'm going cold, nah, nah
It ain't like before we were young and bold, nah, nah
Moved away from home, made it on our own, yeah, yeah
Now we got it all but it ain't what we asked for
