Know your lane, hold it down Either be fake or keep it real This is art, so let me paint Yeah, let me grow, leave me be Lead by example or be the example Get all you can handle or be a handful, ayy We all got a role (What's yours?) We all got a chance (A chance) This is what we do (We do) This is where we stand (We stand) Some do it for money (That's guap) Some because they can (They can) But show up or be shown out (Shown out) You either blow up or get shot down (Shot down) I'm gon' leave it (I'm gon' leave it) A-S I-T I-S (Leave it!) I'm gon' leave it (I'm gon' leave it) A-S I-T I-S (Leave it, ayy!) I'm gon' leave it (I'm gon' leave it) A-S I-T I-S (Leave it!) I'm gon' leave it (I'm gon' leave it) A-S I-T I-S (Leave it, just leave it!) Keep it how it is Critique, but don't mistreat them 'cause they kids Tweak the little things So, teach the fundamentals Go against the grain, end up as the sieve As you age, it drains, you're in disbelief If you stay the same, what would you achieve? Look how far you've come, you're the one to beat Once you jump the gun, nothing's guaranteed Some ask and don't receive You doin' stuff that don't make you at whole (At whole) Won't burnt all ya bridges that come with a toll Stirrin' up a theory that you're insecure (Insecure) Tryna please everybody, but it doesn't work I got people tryna tug on the cape, uh (Yeah) These followers are only givin' me praise, uh (Yeah) Artist are bein' forced on display (Display) What's the point of bein' a master, if you still a slave? (Slave) You're measured by ya talent Not the numbers bein' counted Or the spot that some'll challenge 'Long as you can keep ya balance I stay among the masses You can watch me work my magic Ain't no atlas, but I'm mapped inside a state that you can't fathom On a level I won't settle for, sever from the ever norm Tend to gain momentum I prevent those who misuse the forum From the get-go There were ghettos using ethos, building stores For the record, I make records, recording what most ignore Reapin' without a reward Tied up scores, I adjourn I'm just tryna underscore I'm the calm before the, uh I'm the calm before the storm At the end of it all I got this lane nobody can jaywalk to get across However this ends, you gotta hold yours down People leave behind a trail of what they've gone through For us to use as stepping stones towards our accolades They die, but their music lives on Into the fray, watchin' where my feet tread Takes a deep breath They told me that I shouldn't stay, as a precaution Word is seamless, you're like wheat bread What these peeps have is a variety of options You haven't tried, so you can't knock it Might not get it It's the art of business Aware of my surroundings, don't consider givin' in to the audience I ain't here to tell a joke, but to point one out, a few This is what I do, I'm here to join a track or two I let 'em win 'til the air is thin I'm starin' at a desert drier than it's ever been Stage is set Now it's 'bout makin' a dent Home is where the heart is at That is how we connect, and I'm gone (Whoa) I could have faded away in a heartbeat At the rate mine was headed Not a single good deed was on the record My breath was taken away (Taken away) No one at my bedside while I had fear on my face (Fear on my face) Had visits from people who were nothing but strangers (Strangers) Way over the limit, I escaped my own containment (Containment) Then time elapsed by And bedlam creeped in I let you have at me, this how it ends, as it is Was it worth it? I get it, you wanted You needed a change in your life and you did just that But at what cost? The person I once knew is still in there somewhere You haven't fell that far from grace But you're teetering over the edge Where is your heart at right now? That's the real question First, heal yourself You're in critical condition One thing's for sure: it can't end like this
