Logic

I get to thinking that I’m just another nigga rapping
And jaw jacking, take a look see
Every child on that blacktop thinks he’s heading to the league
And every collegiate student major crosses major artery
And off to Paris, where he’ll become William Bates
And not desire tour dates, but who doesn’t
Every stranger I come upon either does it
Or has a rapping ass cousin
These rapping, tapping, coons come a dozen, a dozen
And they equate they all tight
When truthfully speaking man, they alright
People ask, «how do you know what you spit is tight»
Cuz I’m the bend that they respectively shake palms with
And I’m the man they writing to, to share songs with
That’s how I know
Therefore I grow, into an independent form
Denounce diplomas and dorms
Promote my decorum
Create an illusion, that they need you more than you do them
While you all made and shopped demos
I concocted LP’s to sell shit
Might as well, create a fan base and gather tiny chips
With your larger than partial time slave wages
So to not starve I stay paid
Man, ask Flossy Jay how we keep the shit moving man
Point out the man that said you can’t have your cake and eat it too
Who?
Homeboy, cake is edible
Understand this and we can undermine the streets incredible
Point out the man that said you can’t have your cake and eat it too
Who?
Homeboy, cake is edible
Understand this and we can undermine the streets incredible
On the highway of life, i’m in the fast lane with my wife
With my foot to the floo', ain’t no where to go
I gave the old heave ho' to all the bullshit and dreams
I’m one of the only niggas that, is what he seems
Doing what the fuck I wanna do, how I wanna do it
Found my place in the world and then I stuck true to it
Lived a lot of pointless years on this planet
Had to peep the overtones to completely understand it
But now that I do, I make the bitch revolve around me
Stop seeking the lighter route and then that bitch found me
And you can down me, but fuck it money is the key
Just not the only door, my future is cure
And I’m happy, so you can roll your eyes or you can dap me
Cuz I don’t give a fuck, your whole existence sucks
You struggling fucked in the game by the government
Conforming to the norm and you smile like you loving it
I answer to one thing, the all seeing, all knowing
You serving the anti-christ, in the office building hoin'
You ain’t knowin'?
I done made my own twist and legal or illegal my shit is my shit
You ain’t knowin'?
I done made my own twist and legal or illegal my shit is my shit
Point out the man that said you can’t have your cake and eat it too
Who?
Homeboy, cake is edible
Understand this and we can undermine the streets incredible
Point out the man that said you can’t have your cake and eat it too
Who?
Homeboy, cake is edible
Understand this and we can undermine the streets incredible
See pops put a foot to my ass
Said, «become a man, shape destiny with your own hands'
It’s not like I didn’t know
But lacking that cushion I must put everything I’ve got into fruition
So we zip our traps and be about it
In addition take kilometers to the inches were allotted
Understand I’m from the epicenter of pretty boys
Spoiled rotten, Riot gear and floss the city toys
The silver spoons you gotta spit out
And turn your back
Fuck a handout, is how I act
Fuck mingling, fuck networking, fuck connects and fuck Hollywood on a whole
Saddle and a coattail is a quick way to free fall to hell
Fools first words be, «oh, been in the studio with such and such and whoopty
whoop and snoop and them»
But where you stand, when they like them
And you was the only third string
And you don’t even mean a thing
But us when tinsel town come a-knocking
We’re gonna bust a gut on the inside
Take a bite out this cake and then we ride
It’s like that
I found the beauty in this earth
God bless the day he gave me birth
I live my life for what it’s worth
Gonna always keep me first
When I die in the end you see
Don’t cry just know I did my thing
Nice run, I had my fun
God promised me eternity I still ain’t done
I said, I found the beauty in this earth
God blessed the day he gave me birth
I lived my life for what it’s worth
Gonna always keep me first
When I die in the end you see
Don’t cry just know I did my thing
Nice run, I had my fun
God promised me eternity I still ain’t done
