If all else fails, I'll get back to what I know

Rachet for my foes, watching for it fallin take a stab at it was snow

Long john jacket for the cold

Some habits are hard to outgrow

I work so hard you think the studio's my lodge inn

If all else fails

I don't have a doubt that I'd be back in that studio apartment

Getting it in, closet size living room, and the kitchen's my den

Playing lotto hoping numbers will save the day

Back to price checking, back to layaways

Since I ain't never hit nothing like a bad fadeaway

Back to the corner, takin a bag of haze to face

Basic flow, when I tried to get my cake to grow

I hit the pawn shop and turn into Trader Joe

Shiesty kid, yack ya jewels while they glistenin

Snatch the hearing aid from a senior, while they're listening

If all else fails, don't know where I'd be

Scratch that, probably at home, nowhere to be

Or probably fuckin a broad that, I treat like a floor mat

Ugly enough to cover her face when the ?

And that's a step down from my New York rat

They ride it like a horse's back, with the horseback

But it won't fail so if you try to rob the kid

Banana clips by the bed will put a stop to it

Nevermind that, first you gotta beat the guard

I can change the channel on my tv and see my yard

If it all failed, I'm ready for the sham

Forging fake checks screamin "Catch Me If You Can"

If all else fails, I'd be out pullin Jerz capers

Knowing me I'd be best friends with my worst haters

I'd be dustin off the AR or be behind state bars

For jackin a bait car

If all failed, I'd be back in them block cyphers

Just to show these local niggas I'm a lot nicer

Cause the less you succeed the more you loved for it

While the more you achieve the more you snubbed for it

If all else failed and my pockets were empty

Everything I despised I'd probably envy

Ignorant shit rappers floss that offends me

Cause I wouldn't be able to attain it, it would tempt me

Frontin' in my mans Maserati

I might bag something with a modest body, from a college party

Next morning hung over so she don't remember

I'd deck my whole crib out from Rent-A-Center

If all else failed and I didn't get a break yet

I'd get unemployment while collecting a paycheck

Would it mean I wasn't build for the bright lights

Say goodbye to front row seats and fight night

If it all failed I'd have a pretty common future

From a Chart House nigga to a ramen noodler

Would my girl say you no longer attract me

Pack up all her shit and head south with an athlete

My name would hold no wait so I'd lose the perks

OD on Oxycontin, abuse the percs

I'd be a felon getting my scriptures tatted on

First 48 star getting ratted on

If all else fails I wouldn't take precaution

New hoopty every month would be my way of flossin

And the crib would be an all night party

With 6 baby moms that I Jet on like Lombardi

Fantasizing the girls I coulda dated

Pull the burner ? on the ones that coulda made it

I'd be the only one that cared

Am I just reciting my fears as they appear

Shouldn't even put the idea in the air

Cause it's not possible, let's make that clear BABY!
