Tellin' me the things you that heard about
Nothin' good comes when you searchin' for the wrong things
Somethin' feels off when I come around
Askin' me questions like, 'what do I believe in?'
'You,' everyone used to say 'til the church lets out
That goes for you too
Everything ain't perfect but I do it for

Who is you to judge me?
Check us drinkin, stumblin' out the club, me, her and her girlfriend
Ain't nobody perfect but the Lord
You always quick to point out all my flaws when [?]
Here's a message little girls, little boy
You could be the dirtiest muh'fucker in the world but have morals
Don't nobody give you nothin' 'less you work for it
Ladies get an education, you ain't gotta twerk for it
You know the Lord send you a sign, don't ignore it
And that's whether you study from the Bible the Quran or the Torah editorial
We original, indigenous, a god among men
It's two things to judge you, your body and your sin
Gotta claim it just like these so-called conservatives
Finally get to arrest some homosexuals then go home and play with lil' kids
Shit, I promise all the shit that I'd ever did was to move (?)
Out the hood and keep me from trappin' [?]
And my testimony my testament
All the bullshit that I seen happen in life turned me into a pessimist
I'm cynical, yeah
I learned life is all about principle
You so judgemental 'cause you miserable
And my inner peace ain't expendable

Tellin' me the things you that heard about
Nothin' good comes when you searchin' for the wrong things
Somethin' feels off when I come around
Askin' me questions like, 'what do I believe in?'
'You,' everyone used to say 'til the church lets out
That goes for you too
Everything ain't perfect but I do it for

I ain't never seen nobody end up in the right place worried about the wrong things
So in translation, better do your own thang
See, some of my partners trap and some of 'em gang bang
Some of 'em snort powder, just barely maintain
No fuckin' with the Cali, got [?]
Came home with a diploma, got a job makin' pennies
Homie like me who ain't finished high school, dropped out and went to prison
Still ended up runnin' multi-million dollar business
Bad if I tell you shit I knew about
You can tell the difference between me reflectin' and me tryna glorify
Come overtime, this shit be borderline outta line
And you just wanna monetize, only focus on the bottom line
When it deeper than that
We here to analyze life and hope the people connect
We not just out here sellin' reefer, find the cheaper connect
Just waitin' to get some expensive shit that a G could respect
For real

Tellin' me the things you that heard about
Nothin' good comes when you searchin' for the wrong things
Somethin' feels off when I come around
Askin' me questions like, 'what do I believe in?'
'You,' everyone used to say 'til the church lets out
That goes for you too
Everything ain't perfect but I do it for

Yeah, you see the shit they missin' today is the G-code
You know, what we did, man, we did out of a lack of options, you know?
But we stuck to a code
You win, you lose, but you abide by the code
You dig what I'm sayin'?
