We spent more time together, but it was never enough
I never tried to…

Museo del Barrio, and the Metropolitan too
Got to…

I tried to speak, but she wouldn't stop until I left sight
I felt like a moth who got himself too close to the light
Except I…

…and they bit it, always trying to copy
But when they tried to use her vocab, they sounded sloppy
She had a style, all her own, respectful and pure
I…

We spent more time together but it was never enough
I never tried to sneak a touch, or even cop a feel
I…

Got to the point when I…

…achieve
So all you gotta do is dream
I got the pressure on my back but I can hold it
'Cause I been workin' hard in preparation for this…
The thrown is for the takin'
So watch me renovate-in this game
I sit down wit my crown and contemplate my reign
My only hope when I'm dead…
…and gone
Will the world remember my name
Will my music live long
My picture hang in the hall of fame
Then I can't complain
They tried to tell me…

…feel
They never knew of how the G came about
Surviving years of drought
Doubters spoke the foul to funnel me down
But I came up
Lifted above the plugs they tried to…
…couldn't contemplate the ways
They tried to say I would never see the day
Hard to fathom distractions to have you
Pass on dreams to…
…of mind was the balance in time
I learned to balance my dream with my job
Until my dream became my job
All praise due
This is how I do
When thinking how to…

…know? What did you care?
Turning a blind eye to the lies just to keep it all together
But sometimes when I'm alone like this I wonder…
…? What did you care?
Surface agreements, statements of fact, trying to prove we can do it
But sometimes when I'm alone like this I…
…alone like this I wonder how much it's just institution
What did you know? What did you care?
What did you know? What did you care…
…contemplate the debatable intervention
Turn the table and provoke unrests, brains squinted
Smack out the wooden hammer to…
…a moment
No matter how many word I spit, but this politics smells really stink
You could be anything, you can do…
…about Batman vs Superman
Like fight tight but just make this country worse and so I don't think it'll be helped cause no one tried to…

Yo, listen up, I wanna say some things
About the days of ancient Danish kings
One of the first was a foundling
Who flourished…
…for relief
If only they had Jesus!
If only they knew what we know now
How Jesus comes to your aid when he's needed!
Forgive me…
…rather just leave it
If you really wanna know how it ends
Well then I guess you'd better just read it!
That's right
Go read…

…fly like the eagles, fly beyond the eagles, fly above the eagles to see how the world really is
[Hook]
Contemplate how we're gonna…
…make it through the night
I'm weak and I ain't gotta fake it in my life
Oh, Lord, You know we need You
Since you, gave me power…
…unbelievable
I got the juice when I come to this
I got the power like I'm Superman
Energy from the sun, I'm King Kong, you a son to…

…with thievery for my niggahz sanity had to be planned for me to be a muthafucking casualty Sad to see my life summed up where I didn't fail
And how I…
…from tripping
Bruh!
[Hook]
[Verse 3: Reese]
My life's a movie and I know just how to play my role
Rolling up on the scene to…
…see just how the game is told
The OG's showed me, now I only wanna make this dough
Watch this paper stack and they act like this…

…got a man, but he ain't gon' mind if I take you out
(Of course he gon' mind)
Let me take you to lunch, I'll have you back before he…
…be lonely?
Ain't checkin' for these hoochies that be on me
‘Cause they phony
But you was different, I got no need to be suspicious
‘Cause I can…
…old half a man, ya know what I'm sayin'?
I ain't tryin' to put you in a position
Where you gotta give up your lifestyle…

But you was different -- I got no need to be suspicious
Cause I can tell -- my life with you would…

Cause if he touch ya, I got some drama for that busta
Don't wanna rush ya -- but make your mind…
…know what I'm sayin'?
I ain't tryin' to put you in a position
Where you gotta give up your lifestyle for everything
You need…

…here reminiscin' and I hope you listenin'
In the position to pressure and offer competition
Me and you was meant to be my destiny…
…is problems with your man and me
What can I do? Don't wanna lose you to this sucker
‘Cause if he touch ya, I got some drama for that busta
Don't…

But you was different, I got no need to be suspicious
‘Cause I can tell, my life with you would be delicious
The way you lick your lips and shake your…

…[Verse 1]:
Liar, liar, I confess my sins
Don't know how I ended up in this position again
If God could only see the bad b*tches I…
…shoot they shot
N before I run outta pot, I gotta finish this verse
The devil still in my bed, I had to finish her first
N…
…I could heal myself, n I ain't talkin bout a pill
My symbolism is archaic, n most ain't got the balls to say it for real
I let you…
