Well I guess thats how it be like I knew this back in grade 12 People telling me poetry and music will never pay well But homie now i've paved a way, thru my day to day so It's safe to say my critics never age well It pays well when you do right Smoke weed, stay home Fuck drugs, you alright Trust in yourself Trust no one else Feel free, put the love in ya self Your energy is but a chain reaction Change your thought watch the change will happen Your life will be like u can't imagine If u never try, you'll never know Set it free and just let it flow Well I guess thats how it be like I don't want the glitz or the glam If I'm never with the fam That don't feel right They gotta understand I'm executin' plans I'm just tryna get the team right Now, nigga thats your mans Acting like a fan Tell my why it be like that? Well I guess thats how it be like Now everything that I project is just my own reflection Sometimes I feel my overthinking is my only pressure A lot of time, a lot of heart a lot of love invested But I swear this anxiety just got it's own direction But it's authentic so I know I got to let it shine And this pen too fire so I got to let it rhyme Let it simmer down Expensive dinners now I never thought of living life the way I'm living now These lyrics getting slicker and I'm moving past the drama It's hard to be apart of all this that and the third Save that for the birds and I save that for my word Huh, I got it written on me The whole weight of the world just sitting on me They not quitting on me This shit is skin deep I'm chasing after 3 M's like it's 10ft While, tryna balance spirit, trust me that ain't for the weak People know but never practise what they preach They told me no and I went after it Steady tryna master this Fuck a siverline or survival I'm out here riding till the day I die And if it happens today, at least they know that I tried At least the people saw me represent, everywhere I went How you gonna make a change when you hardly making sense Only lines upon a page, when a brother need to vent Ain't no space for a brother in a time like this No way Well I guess thats how it be like I don't want the glitz or the glam If I'm never with the fam That don't feel right They gotta understand I'm executin' plans I'm just tryna get the team right Now, nigga thats your mans Acting like a fan Tell my why it be like that?
