Let’s take this from a different perspective
Cuz you never truly know

Uh
I tend to focus on myself cuz that’s all that keeps me well
Society ain’t care for you unless you faulting wealth
And school would rather see me in the street or in the cell
So I dropped out but never truly fell
I’m trying to prevail but I ain’t got room to grow man
Cuz I been through more stamps than a postman
Two jobs since seventeen and I’m still broke
Damned while I stay afloat
Hand ties and still I’m forced to find a way to cope
Fast forward a few years
In my youth still but ain’t no youth here
Only a sinner from a swimmer with sunken dreams
He’s bitter, society flipped him the finger
Said “Try your luck with this trigger, you’ll figure it out”
Matter of fact, I’m in the kitchen right now
Pushing this rock on the block, guess I figured it out
About time that my grind starting paying my downs
And yet they wonder why I can’t make it out

If it comes down to man, I know my choices
Either sell or you buy for life, I hear the voices
So go ahead pick your poison
Pick your poison

Uh, no time for pity or a different life
Quickly whipping up the white
Make my city grip them pipes
I got what they need, they got what I want, money
I’m the queen bee, keep em working for my, honey
One day, and I can make a killing from this bumpy snow
Watch my neighbours come and go
New block every year or so
Flip my flow like I’m flipping dough
Dripping like their dripping throats
Y’all houses is level, I live in the slopes now now
Bring my dope down down
Bullet-proof under my clothes, you never know how, how it’ll go
Second amendment I hold ‘round, ‘round
I want no problems to hollow my home town town
Uh, we all choose how to live, I just chose not to drown
Saw the shoes as I kid, now I’m filling ‘em out
People bought from ‘em then, and people buy from me now
I’m on top from my sins, devil’s plot from the clouds

If it comes down to man, I know my choices
Either sell or you buy for life, I hear the voices
So go ahead pick your poison
Pick your poison

Time flies, now I’m laundering
Several detergents with urgent clients, man I’m prospering
Conjuring cash only from the hustler’s I’ve been fatherin’
Wandering ‘round the house tryna find an open spot fit
Next week’s profits, bank deposits kept in the safe room closet
I can barely fold my wallet
But the gauntlet’s still waitin’ if I ain’t get what was promised
I’m lawless, cuz weakness is preyed upon in this office
And I ain’t tryna lose my fuckin’ spot this quick
I brought this shit to here from the block brick shifts
I got this rich from addiction hostages
Know God wishes I would finally stop business with the devil
I rebelled away and settled my fate:
Head on a plate, or maximum security level state prisons
I made decisions I wouldn’t make another way
Cuz if I did, I’d simply end up in the same place,

If it comes down to man, I know my choices
Either sell or you buy for life, I hear the voices
So go ahead pick your poison
Pick your poison
