They used to laugh inside my face and go and call me funny Now they are jealous of my skills and they are tryna judge me I kept on working now I'm out here and I'm making money Ain't what I intended all I wanted was for them to love me How do I tell them when I rap it is so serious And when they laugh inside my face it makes me furious How do I let them know that they are so delirious They don't understand how hard I work yeah I put years in this You think you know me, no you don't You think you will, you really won't Yeah haters hate then they devote They call me trash then call me goat Their own opinion they don't know By random choice they seem to go Like Eine Meanie miney moe I guess I gotta hate this bro Do not treat me just like a clown Do not give me the run around Give me thumbs up or a thumbs down I want the truth I want it now I do not care what others said I want to hear it from your head Don't get caught up inside the trend I want to hear it from your end Yo it's time to go They think they know but they don't really know They don't know me they just know my flow Following me like their on tippy toes Thinking their hidden but guess what? I know. Hiding the fact that they don't wanna show They think I'm good, but won't say it till I blow Cuz they'll have everyone telling them so Woah They call me Johnny but my real name is just really John They think they know me but my whole life they got really wrong They like my music, yeah they like when I put out a song But all I really wanted was to be loved and feel I belong They used to laugh inside my face and go and call me funny Now they are jealous of my skills and they are tryna judge me I kept on working now I'm out here and I'm making money Ain't what I intended all I wanted was for them to love me They're here to see if I win or fall They don't care about the man at all Saying everything's unattainable They're waiting till I drop the ball So they can eat me up like a cannibal Like who are you? Are you Hannibal? Well I go to John Jay So at the end of the day You'll see me behind bars in two different ways I never once recieved a call Like John what's up how is it all Just "where's the song I'm waiting for?" All they wanna do is ask for more When views are up they all adore But when they're down who's at my door? Whether I'm at the top or on the on floor Who's really with me? I ain't too sure Cuz it ain't about the music It's about the man that used it Everybody thinks they knew this But they really acting foolish Don't you think that you can do this Thought we already been through this Don't you go forgetting who's this Or you're gonna really lose it Too fast for you? Are you caught up? That was already clear enough I'll say again so you pick up I'll say it slow so listen up If you don't respect the man then you don't deserve his stuff And If you say this is what makes me, please don't tell yourself that bluff Yeah, This doesn't mean I will be done I won't stop till I'm number one But when the glasses come off who have I really become, huh? They say they know me but they only know my life online They never heard me speak but they know every single rhyme They love or hate me it's so random like they roll a die Got the double O I ain't no spy, but got a Double life They used to laugh inside my face and go and call me funny Now they are jealous of my skills and they are tryna judge me I kept on working now I'm out here and I'm making money Ain't what I intended all I wanted was for them to love me Thinking they know me and they can all spit it Telling the world that they coulda did it You don't know me and guess what you didn't You only hear from me when I permit it That is the truth and they don't admit it All of these eyes they all see me different They take the truth and they try to spin it They have an image of me and I fit it Rapper or man I don't know which one is it? But when I do both they surely forbid it This is my life and you do not live it You're behind glass to see my exhibit You have your own and opinions you give it Love's all I wanted so please can you bring it So please take a second or even a minute To figure out whether or not you are with it Hate or love these people don't even know what they're giving They're in the public's eye their real opinion's so deceiving It's not just me, just take a look we are all double living Let us find ourselves and do not judge it will be so fulfilling They used to laugh inside my face and go and call me funny Now they are jealous of my skills and they are tryna judge me I kept on working now I'm out here and I'm making money Ain't what I intended all I wanted was for them to love me
