A wise man once said People never earn the credit you let them take People will observe your efforts but never aid Then they will emerge whenever you celebrate People want returns on investments they never made Thousands of requests, you say yes and let them have it The first time you say no, it's like the yeses never happened People only love you if the yes is automatic Till asking you for cash is just a habit to an addict People help you fight only after you take the hits When your opponent quits then people put up their fists But when you take an L, their faces cease to exist They want you to share rewards but never to share the risk If you do succeed, even good friends flip Still there's nothing faker than a Hollywood friendship So watch out for the tongues that get high off of the glory And two-faced ones telling both sides of the story Wisdom from the elders, wisdom from the wise Wisdom that the fools will only despise Learn the lessons from the living and the dead Told, written, and read, a wise man once said Wisdom from the elders, wisdom from the wise Wisdom that the fools will only despise Learn the lessons from the living and the dead Told, written, and read, a wise woman once said Do not judge appearances upon a first encounter The one that takes you out could be the one you thought a coward And do not underestimate your haters and your doubters A fool can turn his ignorance into a superpower Fame is the biggest weakness in human nature Faces you know can easily hide a traitor Beauty has the best flavor, go and taste her Using that pretty face as a fundraiser But of course, if she's more for the streets If you're supporting her needs, you're the floor at her feet You're a doormat at least, you need more expertise What's the scariest mistake, mixing yours and her seeds What's a city where the famous and the gorgeous can meet That's unlimited revenue for divorce attorneys That's an orgasm feast, a child support masterpiece That's when your salary's a family court casualty According to the Wisdom from the elders, wisdom from the wise Wisdom that the fools will only despise Learn the lessons from the living and the dead Told, written, and read, a wise man once said Wisdom from the elders, wisdom from the wise Wisdom that the fools will only despise Learn the lessons from the living and the dead Told, written, and read, a wise woman once said One thing to never expect in business is compassion Verbal agreements can be nothing but a distraction There's no law enforcement for the law of attraction Either make a wish or make moves and make it happen You'll never win the game if you ever play yourself No one will pay you more than you ever pay yourself A savior could be scheming you, you better save yourself If you notice, it's the predators that never pray for help Without leverage, do not even interact Know your business just as well as you know how to write a track Masters, publishing, opposite sides attract If you never sell it, then you never have to buy it back With that said, this is my own work Every win, every loss falls on my shoulders Sell my rights, no, sir, I know my own worth One hundred percent copyright owner Wisdom from the elders, wisdom from the wise Wisdom that the fools will only despise Learn the lessons from the living and the dead Told, written, and read, a wise man once said Wisdom from the elders, wisdom from the wise Wisdom that the fools will only despise Learn the lessons from the living and the dead Told, written, and read, a wise woman once said A wise man once said A wise woman once said A wise person once said
