I done put so much work in this Still it's okay that they don't appreciate the value of my services That's what happens when you ain't in it for promotional purposes It's amazing Most of the love you show will never get reciprocated That's just how the game goes It's not that you running into a bunch of them who saying no It just ain't no Acknowledgment You only fit the esthetic when you're sharing one of their posts They won't Even tap the heart Such an important Organ They treat it like it's foreign Cupid shaking his head Lucky we don't need reassurance When we performing This shit so easy and they can't even keep up I ain't even fit in with my crew They were just the only ones who embraced me And ironically the only ones who challenged me I was working overtime cause we were so different I had to deal with the fact that it simply wasn't enough to just let the talent speak Been to shows Not to build Just to show that those other rappers were not for real Seen a lot of gas But they were popping still Had to salute them for that Not the skill That's why I was never tripping About never getting The recognition I had to check conditions Far as I could see Either their lenses were blurred and they needed fresh prescription Or they just ain't have objective vision How could I blame them For me to stay reluctant I could only admire that they were brave enough to face the judgment Confidence was so bittersweet I would hate to love it Cause it wasn't something that I was raised enough with Couldn't imagine just popping up to the game Without practicing and expect to have the answer Not the game I'm in the gym like I'm facing elimination They should expect me to have the candor to tell them we're not the same Earned every flower Every L was a lesson Writing helped with depression Ain't even know that I had it First album was supposed to be titled Therapy That's my Simpson bag Years later looking back at myself and reflecting Did I predict it or manifest it Or are they one in the same Is it just karma for everyone that I shamed Or am I just a product of the conversation of mental health Reaching the mainstream and this is just something to blame When I'm struggling It's days when getting out of bed just to be tough again Is suffering It's people going through it even worse And don't even know it And if they do they were taught that it would be weak to show it Especially men Cause what's happening In the masculine Chapter of the societal bible That's a sin I'd have to understand Morse code When I'm tapping in With my folk I'd accept an accident Stumbling into confession is healthier than quietly unraveling I don't wanna wake up to the news of another tragic end Dying from it Living through it It's a losing Battle either way People say If you give into to it That's the easy way And I would never But I get the rules in All of this People like to pick and choose and Ease away from the fight if they ain't got the leverage To guarantee the win and then exclude it Like it's never happened when they see an extreme case Self-righteous They disillusioned It's a privilege To know nothing bout it but add opinions to it This is venting music I don't expect to be supported by folk who like to pretend in music Ever since the beginning I been putting my life right in the music And I got the nice pen in music Ever since the beginning I been putting my life right in the music And I got the nice pen in music Brim
