Evolution
Mirror Monk Lyrics

I always kept it true
I have always stayed genuine and truthful in all my actions.

Look what they do to me
Observe how others treat me because of my honesty.

What you do if you was me?
If you were in my position, how would you react?

This money and this fame shit
The wealth and popularity that comes with success.

Man that's new to me
These aspects of life are unfamiliar to me.

It's hard to tell the truth
Speaking honestly is a difficult task.

Just from what you see
Judging solely based on appearances.

They don't know about the stress
Others are unaware of the pressure and anxiety I face.

On a nigga mind
Emotional burden affecting one's thoughts.

They could never touch the pain that I feel
No one can truly understand the suffering I endure.

That's why I do what I want
This is why I act according to my own desires.

I'm not containing my real
I refuse to suppress my true self.

When I come thru and I stunt
When I show up and impress.

I'm just displaying my skills
I am showcasing my talents.

I would listen to what you say
I might consider your advice.

If it was paying my bills
Only if it was financially beneficial to me.

But it's not, so just stop
Since it does not help me financially, there's no need to continue.

With the bicker, and the talk
All the pointless arguments and chatter.

Who he is?, What he was?
Questions about my identity and past.

What he did and what he got?
Concerns about my actions and achievements.

Who his bitch is?
Speculation about my partner.

We See all deem pictures
We witness all of these assumptions.

Why you acting different?
Why are you behaving in this manner now?

I'm tryna get richer
I am focused on increasing my financial wealth.

I hustled hard and graduate from the streets
I worked intensely and successfully transitioned from a difficult background.

I made my money
I have earned my wealth.

Now they hating on me
Now others are envious of my success.

Why they hating on me?
What is the reason for their jealousy and animosity towards me?

Came into this game
Entered this industry.

Never did I think that anything was gonna change
I did not anticipate the alterations that success would bring.

Niggas fallin out
People are turning against each other.

And bitches all about the fame
Some individuals are only interested in popularity.

Yeah a nigga ballin
I am successful and thriving.

But i'm calling out the pain
I am acknowledging the hardship that accompanies my success.

Yeah I ain't the same
I have changed due to my experiences.

Like I worked my ass off
I put in a significant amount of effort.

So I could stay the same
My hard work was intended to preserve my authenticity.

Cuz i'm real
Because I am genuine.

They probably fake
They are likely insincere.

So you know we can't relate
Our perspectives and values are incompatible.

Understand niggas gon hate
Accept that others will feel animosity towards you.

You gotta charge it to the game
You have to accept this as part of the industry.

Came up wit a plan
Developed a strategy.

And then I executed
Put that plan into action.

Cuz nobody give a damn
Because no one else really cared.

When you making excuses
When you are trying to justify your actions.

Everybody got a path
Everyone has a unique journey.

And it's yo choice to chose it
It is up to you to decide your own path.

Every one ain't got a mind
Not everyone has a strong mindset.

Just stay strong
Remain resilient despite challenges.

And don't lose it
Do not let go of your determination.

I'm all about the cream
I am focused on financial success.

The shit you see on Toaster Struddles
The type of wealth displayed in media.

Running to the path of Success
Pursuing a successful career.

You lazy, go take a U-ber
If you are lazy, find an alternative way to succeed.

And hell no I ain't rich
I am not wealthy at the moment.

But i'm soon to be
I am on track to become successful.

And you could hate me now
Some may resent me at this moment.

That shit ain't new to me
I am accustomed to facing criticism.

Cuz i'm busy doing me
Because I am focused on my own journey.

What you want me to do?
What do you expect me to act?

Want me to lose focus on me?
Do you want me to lose sight of my goals?

And put focus on you
Instead, prioritize your desires over mine?

I could never be a hater
I cannot bring myself to envy others.

I ain't dumb enough
I am not foolish to betray my values.

I'm just tryna touch mo' papah
I am striving to earn more money.

I ain't thumb enough
I do not have enough funds at the moment.

Wit a little bit of grind
With some hard work and dedication.

And a little bit of time
And some patience and effort.

I could fly and touch the sky, yeah
I can achieve great heights with determination.

Stay up on ya shit
Remain focused on your goals.

That's whats gon' get ya snake friends hurt
Maintaining your diligence will reveal disloyal friends.

Wanna make enemies?
Do you want to create conflicts?

Make some friends first
Build genuine relationships before causing animosities.
