I could be so poetic
I could be so pathetic
I could be so epic
I could be so melodic
I could be so poetic

I know some people I could lean on
They respect me cause I'm stand up
Never been able to stand still
Separate me from those who stand stuck
I was tossed in a stand off
I chose to stand tall
Just know principles what you stand on
Face adversity, you stand alone
Weren't trying to be a tough nigga stand in
I was trying to be the last man standing
Just be sure the things that you stand for
Align with the people that you stand with
It's enough to make your hair stand on end
Don't ask me why I'm standoffish
Stand up stepped up and sat down
I stepped up, stood tall to stand trial
Β
Don't tell me GOD can't go against all odds
I'm living proof
Everything started in the basement
Finally made it to the roof
Probably why bishop wanna kill me
He know that I got the juice
But I'm still with the steel
Catch me in the mix,
Have the 38 singing on cue
I don't look and see the same you no more
Starting to feel like we ain't crew no more
I don't even see the same me no more
You can love me or hate me, either or
Either or
Either or
You can love me or hate me
Either or

Welcome to the world
Selfish gemini
All ideas
selfless like the sky
Thereβs a way to this divide
In the way this mind is disguised
Take a look twice
Watch this other side
Some memories hide
While the others ride
But its all there
There some care
Care does here
Here is that tear
Tear can compare
Compare another dare
Dare that a soul
Soul without fear
Resides here
Yo I feed while im bleeding
Not always receiving
Communicating what I believe in
And I know its me
And I know its me
And I know its me
Its just me
Well its Me
Well Its Me
Well Its Me
I guess we gonβ talk about you
Should we just talk about you
