Tony Robbins Pocketbook
(专辑: The Iliad Is Dead And The Odyssey Is Over - 2019)
(How many bars I
got? Right here? Hahaha) 9th Wonder showed me proof that God is real No joke, when he spoke a
nigga got the
chills When it's real, it's real, it ain't hard to feel The
only way to build, still sharp as steel The
Iliad is dead, The
Odyssey is over Found God within me, started searching for Jehovah What you searching for? Where you focus at? If it's happiness, no one can give you that It flows from within, it knows all your sins You can never win being envious of other men Covetousness is such a
sin Wanting what other people have has become a
trend But don't bow down to the
dollar bill, y'all Commercial consumerism is tryna kill y'all I'm tryna heal y'all and still make a
living Be conscious of what you getting for what you giving We got to a
point now, where Artists will devalue, and what you're spending is time with the
artist, and that's the
most valuable commodity of all So what are you getting in exchange for your time? Do you feel encouraged? Do you feel uplifted? Do you feel comforted? Do you feel nourished by the
time you're giving to the
artist that you've listened to? I
can't sleep when a
Tarantino flick's on I
can't eat with a
new pair of kicks on Spilling Polynesian sauce on my Off-Whites Always go with your gut when it's not right Let your intuition put you in position Even when you don't, say you understand the
mission Competition's for the
jocks and the
meatheads Not me, I
just do it for the
street cred For the
heads that love to rock the
real shit For the
ones who ain't scared to bleed and feel shit I
kill myself right before I
hit the
bed to sleep So every day I'm resurrected as a
better me Never be afraid to grow just a
little Never be afraid to hurt and let it show a
little When you allow someone else to help You give them the
chance to try to heal themself Sometimes you're not able to ask for help from 'Cause of pride or your ego, whatever And that's cool, but you're also denying someone else the
opportunity to help themselves And, it's kinda like the
whole Paid Dues thing with me, like People think I
started for money or I
think the
kids that I
put on owe me something, but that's not the
case No one looked out for me when I
started out on the
west coast So I
built that platform to elevate those coming from un-under me And I
never expected anything in return because it was helping heal the
hate and resentment I
had towards the
dudes who never put me on But I
ended up booking them, too, with the
younger acts, and it was just good for the
culture and good for my f
my pocketbook But mostly just good for my soul
