No practice
I don′t really need any practice (shh, shh, shh)
Look, I'm refocused
Gotta stay clear of distractions (woo)
You don′t know work (no, no)
You don't really know my worth (uh)
Know how to hold my ground (yeah)
If worse should ever come to worst
Do not disturb, I'm zoning
(Do not disturb, I′m zoning)
All my strengths I know them
All my flaws I own them
Before you start speaking down
(Before you start speaking down)
It all comes back around (shh, shh)
What goes up must come down (shh, shh, shh)
Was never with the practicing
Never was here, still it feels like I′m back again
Way too lucid to relapse again
And no words put together are an accident
Don't deal in truces, move like in movies
"From Here To Eternity" like a 50′s crooner
Move through crowds kissing teeth and scratching necks
Cause like the truth, I'm hard to accept
Yeah, dealing with some struggles
I can′t really show (shh, shh, shh)
If you see me cornered up
It's really just for show (hol′ up, hol' up)
I've been through worse before
It′s nothing I don′t know (Please)
It's nothing I don′t know
Yeah (Alright, alright)
No practice
I don't really need any practice (shh, shh, shh)
Look, I′m refocused
Gotta stay clear of distractions (woo)
You don't know work (no, no)
You don′t really know my worth (uh)
Know how to hold my ground (yeah)
If worse should ever come to worst
Do not disturb, I'm zoning
(Do not disturb, I'm zoning)
All my strengths I know them
All my flaws I own them
Before you start speaking down
(Before you start speaking down)
It all comes back around (shh, shh)
What goes up must come down (shh, shh, shh)
What goes up must come down
Yeah
Pardon my ways
Lessons to learn before coming of age
Never let you compromise my soul
Can′t let it slide, that′s just something I won't do
Yeah, pardon my fashion
It′s in my blood, do it all with a passion
Rarely speak but it's few things I don′t know
Forgive and forget, that's just something I won′t do
And I really can't help it
Please don't approach me with foul intentions
Since forever been building this tension up
Really don′t know what might tick me off
And it′s never enough
I knew treason way before I knew love
I don't expect loyalty, so don′t expect trust
No handouts, even when I was stuck
So if I lose my senses
Know that it probably wasn't senseless
No stranger to this, I′ve been paying my dues
But peace of mind can't be paid in full
Could never get to me, was taught not to feel but think
I always play it off like I′m not worried 'bout a thing
Convinced they're out to get me, that′s just how I was raised
I′ll take what God will give me, both the pleasure and the pain
(Pleasure and the pain)
Both the pleasure and the pain
(Pleasure and the pain)
Both the pleasure and the pain
(Pleasure and the pain)
(Pleasure and the pain)
