You should take a page from how your mother did it

On her own and try to forget him

Try to forget him

You should take a page from how your mother did it

On her own and try to forget him

Try to forget him

You can′t start taking everything you think you deserve

Don't get me wrong, you′re learning it all the hard way

I said before, whips & chains, my fam said "rep the Kente

Karate Kick the demons, careless what sensai

My hard work gives my body beatings in my corner

But I know I'll be next to granny later, to join her

Questing for the holy grail, at the street it crosses

Tryna get wins with an Excalibur to cut losses

But hey, no matter the season, some'll never love you

Not a robbery for niggas roll up and mug you

Or pull you card and still bluff you

But It doesn′t matter, my hands move, until their drive is down that carpal tunnel

Now, I coulda exit, but I could be wrong

This road leads with potential power, and I could be strong

So I try to keep my stressors, as microscopic as ever

As I sip away my patience with Vodka and Dr. Pepper

Blood of a slave, heart of a king, embodiment of legends

Gunning to victory, with the speed of bullets, escaping Smith & Wessons

Won′t get by if your eyes ain't dry

Take a try. Take a try. You won′t even think about it, but you...

Won't get by if your eyes ain′t dry

Take a try. Take a try. You won't even think about it, but you...

I just wanted to be dope, if I had to sell it then so be it

Until an OG told me, "Do what makes you special!", I aint really see it

Pray for rain for the dirt we did today

Get serious or a high top fade cause we don′t Kid N Play

Buried my pops recently, that was hard as fuck

And if he had his way, he'd want me to pick myself up

We was back to back, I wish I could bring you back to life

Cool in my afterlife if I'm reading these chapters right

Work so hard your signature becomes an autograph

You Will Farrell, I′m a pharoah, all my art is facts

Be yourself, everybody in the hood aint got heat

You a civilian, a median strip, you not street

Flawless victory we keeping that same energy

The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy

Won′t get by if your eyes ain't dry

Take a try. Take a try. You won′t even think about it, but you...

Won't get by if your eyes ain′t dry

Take a try. Take a try. You won't even think about it, but you...

Won′t get by if your eyes ain't dry

Take a try. Take a try. You won't even think about it, but you...

Won′t get by if your eyes ain′t dry

Take a try. Take a try. You won't even think about it, but you...
