Back on my badness, and it's workin' non -stop from the summer to the winter time

Tryin' not to trip now that I can see the finish line

I never really thought of what I'd do when I wake up in time

And now I'm sayin' this little light of mine, I'ma let it shine

Even when it's gettin' windy in the night And though it get chilly, yo, I know the Holy

Ghost is rollin' with me Even when I'm in the venue and the people rollin'

Nicki finna blow, gettin' gassed up Look at all these people with their hands up

Look at all these people quotin' stanzas Old heads always told me fame was a cancer

But who we tryin' to get it?

We ain't eatin' if we don't Yeah, the game don't change

Needin' nothin' but just the flow for a minute

So we tryin' to build a boat Yeah, the game will trick you harder

You might end up in the moat if you ain't get right

Check this out Homie, let me ask you, what you do for?

What you winnin' for?

Retention?

Or you winnin' for the fans?

Won't you tell me?

What you stand for?

It's like every single day I meet somebody And they always say they're rappin' as they

Call it

They ain't bout their hard work They ain't makin' an investment

So they quit if they ain't ballin' They ain't in it, though

What you know about the cost?

What you know about relationships lost, huh?

What you know about bein' broke?

What you know about performin' after people see your show, huh?

Everybody tryin' to fly, but they never stop to think about the way they gon' land

Gotta keep a strong foundation in the industry A vibrant swimmin' in this quicksand

Let me tell you about

Take me back to a time in my life when it was all simple

Just my homies and my girl and the people that were part of my team

Tryin' to be a lion in the dark, but it's hard when this world's so simple

Now we crackin' on the pressure, tryin' to run up on them in the big league

In it, what you doin'?

Homie, what you say, boy?

In it, what you doin'?

Homie, what you say, boy?

In it, what you doin'?

Homie, what you say, boy?

In it, what you doin'?

Now we crackin' on the pressure, tryin' to run up on them in the big league

What you know about it?

All these people around me and they claimin' that they bad at it

Got a couple day ones stayin' real and I don't doubt it

But to me, I really see my circle gettin' off the curve

I don't know about them all, I don't really trust it

You gon' help me out from when I fall

Got a couple numbers I don't pick the phone up when I call

Isn't simple, really, if I think I'm callin' it

Yeah, ooh, don't talk

Way too many thoughts I should be keepin' to myself

I got a ego issue that I think is plumbin' off the shelf

And I should take it to the Lord, but I just deal with it myself

It ain't workin'

Now my show last week, I saw a bad shit twerkin'

Tryin' to keep my heart guarded, but after I started talkin'

All my values and my conscience went to walkin'

Now when I go holla, hey, man, what you doin'?

What's your name, where you come from?

I'd like to take you outside, maybe take you on a ride

Yeah, maybe we could do somethin'

She said she liked the show and she liked the way I spit it

And she really did the flow and she listened to the lyrics

And she said she got a question, said, I'd really like to hear it

And she asked me if I felt like I'm this man named Jesus

Ah, yeah, all that, yeah, I'd like to be the one to fill you in

Maybe later on tonight, we could talk about it more

When we're talkin' about my grip

Yeah, I'm on worse behavior

Hittin' out the name of my risen savior

And I know that he'd forgive me, but honestly, man

This game is gettin' to me on a real, though

Take me back to a time in my life when it was all simple

Just my homies and my girl and the people that were part of my team

Tryin' to be a lion in the dark, but it's hard when this world's so simple

Now we crackin' on the pressure, tryin' to run up on him in the bed

Nay, in it, what you doin'?

Homie, what you say, boy?

Nay, in it, what you doin'?

Homie, what you say, boy?

Nay, in it, what you doin'?

Homie, what you say, boy?

Nay, in it, what you doin'?

Now we crackin' on the pressure, tryin' to run up on him in the bed, Nick
