Best Me

Sylvan LaCue

7

Apologies in advance

Jealousy ensues but I choose to understand

I sip slow think slower

Cause people love to judge, when they barely even know ya

I′mma say that again, I sip slow think slower

Because people love to judge, even when they barely even know ya

When I was 7 used to rock soldiers

Hotboys had it poppa from the Nolia

I need a project chick from the corner, cousin had a friend she was like 10

Even then I used to buy her blow pops from the corner

Valentine cards, milk money by the quarter

Fast forward, now it's dumb girls Henny by the 5th

20 pump 6 condoms and recorders

Fucking outta spite kinda sorta, got engaged now I′m thinkin' 'bout a daughter

Spend a lotta time even though I can′t afford her, please keep it coming with the brown water

Please (oooh) back when I had plans of being HOV, wanted floor change for the quarter-waters

When I was naive to these things, I really wanna follow what my heart shares

Money ain′t a thing, till it's not there

And bitches ain′t shit till you need a queen, and niggas all the same till you meet a king

You know what you need when you dead broke

You know what you want when you see the dreams

All I wanna do is be the best me

All I wanna do is be the best me

All I wanna do is be the best me

All I wanna do is be the best me, best me possibly

Upset drunk on a late night, 2 shots out from a Drake life

Nigga I remember those days when I used to bump, Day 'N′ Nite

Scott said I was on my own, since then I been on my own

Nah nigga

Nah nigga

I ain't never had a mothafuckin′ handout, a bunch of mistakes in my past tryna stick to a plan route

But that's life my nigga, sometimes shit just don't pan out

Lately I′ve been tryna bite my tongue, dawg I′ve been in a fight so long, so long, so long, so long, so long with myself

Mirror, mirror on the wall why is it always an act to attack on myself?

I could use a little slack, for the wealth

But I'm too afraid to ask for the help

Still attached to the past, and it′s felt like way too strong I don't ever wanna wait to long

But I know if I hold on, know you′ve grown, go and get yo dough baby

Hold on know you wrong, just don't lose your soul baby

Hold on don′t you know, love won't ever fall baby

Killing my, killing my, killing myself bet I could use some sound maybe

All I wanna do is be the best me

All I wanna do is be the best me

All I wanna do is be the best me

All I wanna do is be the best me, best me possibly

Step up in this bitch like, (woo!) look at what the cat dragged in

Used to call my crushes on my mommas house phone, 13 and youngin' thought I had it mapped back then

I′mma be rich as fuck, let me bring the racks back in

Had to keep me motivated in a city full of traitors, drug dealers, blood killers

Keep it old fashioned, (two choices) I′mma be my own captain

Robert Frost Theory, nigga never had Siri

Thank God for the vision that was brought back then

No new phone, I'm just done with all the acts my friend

You ain′t adding to my life, then you subtractin'

You ain′t gotta hit my jack or put the buzz back in

Nigga hold the phone, caught up in the late night

Can't stay for the day ma, had to catch a red eye have a safe flight

20/20 tunnel vision through the hate my, intuition got me feeling like Draymond

Circumstances I been slippin′ over fakeness

No patience, but I think I think to much (still)

I think I lack confidence (still)

I think I want prominence, dominance good logic & common sense

But that starts with me

All I wanna do is be the best me

All I wanna do is be the best me

All I wanna do is be the best me

All I wanna do is be the best me, best me possibly
