Je score:
Feels somethin' like [x3:] I solemnly swear What I perform in the booth All of it is truth Goes somethin like this [Verse 1:] Uh, to whoever it may concern If you listenin', I'm lookin' for a place to turn See it seems like, this is all I want out of life But it's the other way around, I wanna do right But it's moreso a question of responsibilities So the lights stay on, but my conscience is killin' me Gettin' my Mariano on, pitcher perfect Still inside, I fear the Lord like "is it worth it?" Huh, at first I say "no" But when I open my closet, it makes say so - fuck it And this is hustler haven, see I'm not alone Cause he would say that I got faith, or I got a home So I ask God if he still love us I don't always wanna be this drug dealin' ma'fucker but I was playin' on, with opposite plans And I ain't even have the decency to wash my hands [Chorus:] So he spoke through the clouds like [Sample:] Boy, stop foolin yourself Boy, stop I said nevermind the mistakes, and he said [Sample:] Boy, stop foolin yourself Boy, stop I said I'm tryin' to get through them gates, and he said [Sample:] Boy, stop foolin yourself Boy, stop I said I'm tryin' to switch my ways, and he said [Sample:] Boy, stop foolin yourself Boy, stop [Verse 2:] Searchin' for a way out of the bottom Without shootin' the 3, or tryin' to serve product I'm really just tryin' ta defy the odds A 9 to 5 is callin' me, but I'm tryin' ta dodge I really wanna do the school thing The so called not cool thing Cause I'm gettin' tired of movin' things So maybe Howard or Morehouse or Clark-Atlanta But all of my friends peddle crack and spark hammers I told em we could still be hood and do somethin' more wit our lives And they all look surprised like "Wasn't you the same ma'fucker?" "That showed us how to cook up and cut the butter?" I said "yeah but I guess I sort of had an epiphany" "I'm tryin' to take this ride, and ya'll don't wanna trip wit me?" Got into NC Central and I was glad I ripped my acceptance letter in half [Chorus:] Cause my dudes kept tellin' me [Sample:] Boy, stop foolin yourself Boy, stop Tried to change my grind and they replied [Sample:] Boy, stop foolin yourself Boy, stop I said "you changed wit time," and they was dyin' like [Sample:] Boy, stop foolin yourself Boy, stop So I changed my mind, and stayed outside like [Sample:] Boy, stop foolin yourself Boy, stop [Bridge:] They say you are what you are, and you been what you been Played the corner so long, I blend with the wind Mind over matter Money from the grind is a factor Tryin' to get it wit mines gon' matter You are what you are, and you been what you been Played the corner so long, I blend with the wind Mind over matter Money from the grind is a factor Tryin' to get it wit mines gon' matter [Chorus:] Cause everything else is really like [Sample:] Boy, stop foolin yourself Boy, stop I'm playin' tug 'o war wit myself like [Sample:] Boy, stop foolin yourself Boy, stop Cause if I try to call for some help it's like [Sample:] Boy, stop foolin yourself Boy, stop Scared to go to the Lord for help like [Sample:] Boy, stop foolin yourself Boy, stop So I just say fuck it [x3:] I solemnly swear What I perform in the booth All of it is truth Goes somethin' like
