So concerned about your image
It's game time, this ain't no scrimmage
Life costs a buck, let me get the digits
Something better
Yeah, you got me wishing
Best believe I'll never fold
Lately I been up and on a roll
Never heard a single word I spoke
Did you think you're all woke?
But you never (listen!)
Open perspective only when your heart elects it
Don't mean too much when there is no exit
Fucked it all up, how you learned your lesson
And I promise y'all I'd never switch it
Fuck spite, all love
Yeah, that is my mission
But to think I ever trusted you
The selfish places that you lead me to
Had me broken, beaten black and blue
In the end I wish I listened to my friends
When they said (watch out!)
Way out there and think you're haunting me
While I remain unbothered, diamonds on my teeth
Think you're so hot but you're just blowing smoke
Never heard a single word I spoke
Did you think you're all woke?
But you never (listen!)
Open perspective only when your heart elects it
Don't mean too much when there is no exit
Fucked it all up, how you learned your lesson
And I promise y'all I'd never switch it
Fuck spite, all love
Yeah, that is my mission
Whole damn time, nose buried in your phone, yeah
Tryna cast a line but I think my lure is sinking, yeah
Paid my dues now I'm out
Don't think I'm feeling it
Best believe I heard you out
Best believe you full of shit
Got a new dime, not some waste of time
And she even roll my trees while I'm writing lines
Yeah, hold me to the words I'm slinging
Didn't think you ever got my warning
(Watch out!)
Better watch out for me
I am what you dream about when you're asleep
Slow down
I don't give a fuck what you believe
It's the point you're missing
Think you're all woke but you never listen
Open perspective only when your heart elects it
Don't mean too much when there is no exit
Fucked it all up, how you learned your lesson
And I promise y'all I'd never switch it
Fuck spite, all love
Yeah, that is my mission
