Never Been
(专辑: The Incredible True Story - 2015)
C-Sick I've been working like I've never been I
struggle every day but I
just can't let the
devil in And if I
knew back then what I
know right now What I
know right now I'd be better than I've ever been, better than I've ever been You ever wonder what it all really means? Heart full of dreams? I
know I'ma do it, go get it by any means Serving food for the
thought like it's rock to the
fiends I
said this shit for years boy, this life ain't what it seems Saying that you can't just solidifies you never will Said you would, said you could, but you ain't got the
skill You gotta climb the
highest mountain to master the
hill You gotta climb over your ego to master your will Gave up on your dreams for a
suit and a
pension God damn, I
hope you're here for the
intervention You say you would if you had the
money Don't make me mention It don't cost nothing but time for you to pay attention Now don't get me wrong I
know there's people out there hating on ya And it feel like your self-esteem is breaking on ya All they ever seem to do is hate when you speak They spend seven days preying on the
weak I
know the
world sleeping on ya like a
sedative Talk all you want about me homie, I'ma let it live Hater this, hater that, say I
sound repetitive Hating in your blood, you was born to be negative Never been I
struggle every day but I
just can't let the
devil in And if I
knew back then what I
know right now What I
know right now I'd be better than I've ever been, better than I've ever been This is dedicated to everyone that never made it And the
people that persevered even though they was hated They had a
dream and a
vision that they follow like a
religion But on the
real, the
road to success is prone to collision And every now and then something happens that's unexpected Like that newborn in your life 'cause you was fucking unprotected And I
swear nobody perfect, hell, I
know I
ain't Yeah I
know this verse is heaven sent but I'm far from a
saint Live a
life with no complaints, tryna do just what I
can Learn from my father's mistakes and become a
better man Now plant a
seed and watch 'em grow, teach 'em everything I
know Show him how to fight his battles and always go toe to toe And this I
know 'cause I
been high, low, right, wrong But I
had to do it all just so I
could write this song I
spit knowledge like the
listener is my only son And grip the
mic like I'm at war and it's my only gun Sometimes this journey to the
top can be a
lonely one Yeah, and this victory lap a
lonely run While my hometown screaming you the
chosen one Telling myself, don't choke, don't be the
frozen one I've been working like I've never been I
struggle every day but I
just can't let the
devil in And if I
knew back then what I
know right now What I
know right now I'd be better than I've ever been, better than I've ever been I've been working like I've never been I
struggle every day but I
just can't let the
devil in And if I
knew back then what I
know right now What I
know right now I'd be better than I've ever been, better than I've ever been I've been working like I've never been I
struggle every day but I
just can't let the
devil in And if I
knew back then what I
know right now I'd be better than I've ever been, better than I've ever been Um, you like that take? I
like it Yeah, should I
make it more surreal though, or I
think it's good, hey Bobby run it!
