(Verse 1)
She said she loves me but she don't want a kid like me she needs me but she don't wanna mess around and she knows I don't blame her at all but I gotta do this for me....
Uh just another dreamer the difference is I won't stop until I get it she been there for every step wonders why I'm not committed all that I can say is I been grinding and timing isn't everything but everything takes timing she just wanna talk about all that we have I'm common I just wanna talk to my brothers about this mountain that we climbing this shit is gettin real I can no longer pretend first I couldn't see the beginning now I can't see the end
(Chorus)
Don't hold me to closely
You knew me don't know me least that's what you told me again
You said you loved the old me but things change you became lonely I'm sorry I'm only a man
I need that mulla champaign world tour to that campaign that crew I came up with to make sure I can't change give back to my people give back to my fam give back to my studio and give back to my fans amen amen 2:30 am you sleeping on the youngin I be sleepin when I'm dead if I don't sleep when I'm 100 I won't sleep when I'm ahead my competition in the mirror I compete until I'm dead
(Verse 2)
Hold on
Hold owowon where did all the time go?
I know
I knowowow I said I'd be there for you
Lately I been on my owwwn
You deserve better
Than a kid like me
I-I-I can't stop the pain
I can't be your everything
My dudes they depend on me to get em' things imma do it
Yea I'm sorry didn't mean to put you through it
I still feel the same but everything around is movin the rumors spinning the ground is shaking the rumors spreading the conversation is money makin it's taking so long fake friends they don't have the patience to wait and they gone this that shit to bring em back I just strike and move along
(Chorus)
Don't hold me to closely
You knew me don't know me least that's what you told me again
You said you loved the old me but things change you became lonely I'm sorry I'm only a man
I need that mulla champaign world tour to that campaign that crew I came up with to make sure I can't change give back to my people give back to my fam give back to my studio and give back to my fans amen amen 2:30 am you sleeping on the youngin I be sleepin when I'm dead if I don't sleep when I'm 100 I won't sleep when I'm ahead my competition in the mirror I compete until I'm dead
(Verse 3)
Quote me I won't let nothing slow me
I think I cared to much and so it's better that I'm lonely
Some people they provoke me 2 years later they promote since '08 I did it my way end no way and nobody owe me but they holler and they add another spit tied they know I got that flame they put me on to show because either I got that but baby either way they sweating we gotta wait and see all I know is that they've threatened and all of what they heard is what I give away for free
Oh my right you get like that drop one verse and you quit like that least 2 years behind these old heads but I'm still ownin verses and talkin shit like that bottom line I'm doin me bottom line they know bottom line I'm doing they get it where I'm going
I need that mulla champaign world tour to that campaign that crew I came up with to make sure I can't change give back to my people give back to my fam give back to my studio and give back to my fans amen amen 2:30 am you sleeping on the youngin I be sleepin when I'm dead if I don't sleep when I'm 100 I won't sleep when I'm ahead my competition in the mirror I compete until I'm dead
