about

"We live with it" it's the entire attitude of being unremorseful, and unspeakably cruel to people who don't deserve it. Especially in comparison to my attitude of determination toward my goals -- that is, not to please others or force myself to fit in. Knowing one's worth and working toward it, journeying through meeting people who project their doubts on you even when they see the effects. It's best to keep shining, keep grinding, keep showing the magic. Because that's when they really want it -- when you're not asking for it. I guess that's what's always set me apart, because my objective has always been to live doing what I love to do, and money was always an obstacle for me. Meaning I always saw it as a reason to not pursue something because I always thought it would make people love me less (the general perception of money). I've never not wanted to be successful, I just didn't want the object to be the object that gets me acknowledged, because then what is really being respected?

lyrics

We live with it
Tell me how I do it's wrong
Fuck it I'm right in it
They like how you do it's been too long

Shit I'm quite splendid
Been putting my ink to the pad
Wanted me to sink, we couldn't sync
Gave everything that I had

But what's an asset?
They hate I be making them add
Give me the bag then
They looked in my face and they laughed

I'm like what happened.
They revealed their face from their masks
I got that mystery machine

I got that scooby dooby doo
Dooly dooly doo
Make them all go stupid
When I move into the room

See a nigga juicy
Women choosy choosy choose
Don't act like you know me, homie
Who the hell is you

Never had to flex but when I flex
They know the work did
How you live for years and years
And you ain't learn shit?

They tried to curse us
It ain't just a word, kid.
Those with ears, can you hear?
You are perfect.



Sorry...
They don't ever say sorry...

They don't ever try
To make it better
They just see me doing better
Then they say they want me

It ain't never sorry...
They don't ever say sorry...

They don't ever try
To make it better
They just see me doing better
Then they say they want me



It's a blizzard
Told you don't fuck with a wizard
Like the money, you're a dummy
Never really figured

Let them whisper
They don't know I did this shit for
Love and trying to find out
Why we're here on this universe

This verse, it hurts
Imperialist jerks
How the fuck you know a lot
If you've never had shit first?

I be stomping on my enemies
In bunny slippers
I make waves, make you shiver
It shows on the Richter.

This that Philly shit
I gotta rep my city shit
That niggas on the block wheelieing
Wu-Tanging and dealing shit

That D-Maccing, with action
Make it look like we be chilling shit
That get home from the Masjid
And get right back to this villain shit

A smooth jawn...
You let people tell you what's right
How you say I move wrong?
How I lift that weight from my plight?

They like I'm too strong
It's automatic when I'm shooting on them
Too easy.
It be target practice when I pull up on 'em.



Sorry...
They don't ever say sorry...

They don't ever try
To make it better
They just see me doing better
Then they say they want me

It ain't never no sorry...
They don't ever say sorry...

They don't ever try
To make it better
They just see me doing better
Then they say they want me
