Myself
Lute Lyrics

I'm not an introvert, I really just don't fuck with niggas
I don't shy away from socializing, I'm just selective of who I spend my time with.

So to myself nowadays, it's really hard to read intentions
I find it difficult to trust people's motives and decipher their true intentions.

Funny how people who act distant say you actin' different
It's ironic how people who distance themselves suddenly claim that I've changed.

Trust me, if I don't fuck with you, I keep it consistent, uh
Believe me, if I don't have a good relationship with you, I maintain that same level of distance over time.

Life's a challenge, so for balance had to right some wrongs
Life is full of difficulties, so I've had to correct my past mistakes to maintain balance.

If it didn't bring me peace, then please don't call my phone
If a situation doesn't bring me calmness, I don't want to be bothered with calls related to it.

Watch your tone, niggas want so much, I wish I had a clone
Be mindful of how you speak, people always have high expectations and I wish I had someone to help me handle all of them.

Feelin' like Tyrese, what more you want from me?
I feel overwhelmed like the musician Tyrese, questioning what else people want from me.

I just want my baby
All I want is to be able to provide for my child.

Lifestyle drive me crazy, who the fuck gon' save me?
My way of life is causing me to go insane, and I feel like no one can help me escape it.

Niggas tryna play me
People are attempting to deceive or manipulate me.

Contemplating daily if I should blow this bitch up
Every day I consider whether I should take drastic measures to change my situation.

Kick a door, then load this bitch up, hold this bitch up
I'm willing to resort to violence to save myself from my struggles.

I'm Pac, it's Bishop, you timid as fuck, niggas switch up
I'm aggressive like Tupac and those around me are passive like Bishop, and it annoys me when people change their attitude.

Every time a nigga see a nigga close to the bread
When someone sees another person getting rich or becoming successful,

I'm close to the edge, try a nigga
I'm at my limit and someone challenging me could push me over the edge.

I got niggas that'll come for your head
I have people on my side who will defend me by any means necessary.

While my daughter sleep in comfort instead
While my child sleeps peacefully, I have to worry about the dangers of the world.

Way too much goin' on, "Do Not Disturb" on my phone
I have a lot to deal with, so I'm putting my phone on silent to avoid distractions.

Where I lay my head don't feel like home
I don't feel comfortable or at ease in the place I call home.

And niggas wonder why I be in my zone
I'm always in my own world, and people question why I isolate myself.

Lay my head down and I pray to the Lord
I pray to God, seeking guidance and support.

Wanna be by myself
I prefer to be alone and deal with my problems independently.

Leave me, I'll be good all alone
If people would just let me be, I have faith in my ability to overcome my struggles on my own.

People switch up quick, that's what you find out fast
People change their allegiance suddenly, and it becomes apparent quickly.

So ironic that you'll be the one to find out last
It's ironic that the person who trusts someone the most will be the last to discover their true motives.

They throw stones at your character, but be a house of glass
People make criticisms of others' personalities while having their own weaknesses and imperfections.

We in this bitch until I fucking crash and if it's out of gas
I'll stay in my situation until it becomes unbearable or untenable.

And even then we push this bitch to make it last, shit
Despite the circumstances, I try to hold on and maintain my current state for as long as possible.

All my life I've been pushing just to make it past shit
Throughout my entire existence, I've had to work hard to overcome challenges and obstacles.

Sippin' 40s from a paper bag, shit
I've experienced difficult times, like drinking alcohol out of a paper bag to cope.

I paid my dues, who gon' pay it back?
I've made sacrifices and suffered to get where I am, but no one is willing to do the same for me.

The day I signed, I always play it back
Every day I reflect on the day I signed a record deal and wonder if it was worth it.

'Cause all those nights I challenged God like, "Nigga where you at?"
During difficult times, I've questioned and challenged the existence of God and why he doesn't intervene.

Yet still I pray my only peace of Heaven was the hope inside
Despite my doubts, I remain faithful and find solace in the belief that there's a better place after death.

Held back my tears, yet half the shit I couldn't cope inside
I put on a brave face, but sometimes it's challenging to handle everything internally.

Never thought that my life and dreams would ever coincide
It's hard to believe that my life has aligned with my aspirations and goals.

'Cause I remember nights I asked myself like, "Who the fuck am I?"
I used to question my identity and purpose in life.

Living legend, now I'm that fucking guy, you wonder why
I've achieved success and become a legend, leaving others wondering how I did it.

'Cause fake it until you make it was always a fucking lie
The idea that pretending and acting confident leads to success is false, and I had to work hard to get where I am.

Back against the wall, my only flaw is if I never tried
When I'm backed into a corner and face failure, my only weakness is if I didn't even attempt to succeed.

Back against the wall, my only flaw is if I never tried
When I'm backed into a corner and face failure, my only weakness is if I didn't even attempt to succeed.
