[Intro]
Woah, yeah
Woah (DEXTAH)
Yeah, ayy, mm
[Chorus]
Different feeling I'm feeling
I feel like I'm sitting under the ceiling 'bout to bust through
Can't afford distractions, so much I must do
Understanding your past could bring too much truth, uh, yeah
Mud on my shoes, blood on my hands
Created scars on my point of view
If you ain't living in purpose then what's the point of you?
Pray to God I live to see it through
[Verse 1]
Okay, live life, stay real, I'm Illmatic, Nas spazzin'
Killin' tracks with fashion, count the backend backwards
Smack ya for acting active, slick talk gets no passes
'Cause my guys gon' ride like Mongoose (Yeah, yeah)
Learn to survive, hard times I been through (Mm, yeah)
Blind leading blind, I ain't know what to do
Had to recognize that I wasn't living true to me
So I had to cut them mothеrfuckers loose from me, yеah, yeah, uh
Hate to say it was fam but
Your energy compromised who I am so
I had to stay away from you
Right now I can't relate to you
[Bridge]
Yeah, mind In a different time zone
If you ain't on what I'm on, nigga, gone on
Gone on
Yeah, ayy
[Chorus]
Different feeling I'm feeling
I feel like I'm sitting under the ceiling 'bout to bust through
Can't afford distractions, so much I must do
Understanding your past could bring too much truth, uh, yeah
Mud on my shoes, blood on my hands
Created scars on my point of view
If you ain't living in purpose then what's the point of you?
Pray to God I live to see it through
[Verse 2]
Okay, stakes high, Ruth Chris
I been tryna make time for my new bitch
But they can't call me 'cause I be too busy
I been tryna get it
Money's on my mental, yeah
And I love my city
And I know they love me but they ain't got much to give me
I know that it's hard and their hearts may be empty
But they can't help but feel me
[Outro]
Yeah
Memphis, shit, you know what I'm sayin'?
KP (DEXTAH)
I know they love me
