[01:20.48]
[01:21.31]the forecast shows a downpour
[01:22.68]y'all just made God cry, praying for my downfall
[01:25.50]
[01:30.49]This the shit I'm talking bout right here, let me tell you niggas something
[01:37.06]You can be anything in this World that you want, except for my downfall.
[01:41.86]
[01:42.78]Check this
[01:46.52]I'm a victim of society
[01:47.83]circumstance or just feelings
[01:49.77]was a nigga victimized or just willing
[01:52.51]no blinds, no bags, just dealing
[01:55.20]no foundation or floor plan, just building
[01:57.89]check it, nights bright but the day's dark
[02:01.39]covered in tattoo's, but hate art
[02:03.88]these egg shell's I walk on are razor sharp
[02:06.44]staring at the finish line, looking for a way to start
[02:09.12]I've been called everything, an extremist
[02:11.37]is that a bad thing or what they really mean is
[02:14.26]anything a nigga do, a nigga mean it
[02:16.82]and I won't let a person place a thing come between it
[02:19.81]an opportunist is how they paint me
[02:22.31]but if the nigga only knock once can you blame me
[02:24.99]still I feel like my problems are great
[02:27.30]shit if I don't ever solve em I'm straight
[02:29.61]on the bright side, God chose me to put a lot on my plate
[02:33.17]so I figured I wouldn't be bothered by the weight
[02:36.64]I'm trying to change the pattern but it's on loop
[02:39.20]even an outcast in my own group
[02:41.51]what's it mean when everybody standing next to you
[02:43.82]expects of you everything that comes with a spectacle
[02:46.62]if everywhere I go I just leave behind residue
[02:49.07]tell me, trust me, I won't think nothing less of you
[02:53.08]I'm sorry I ain't around more
[02:54.96]come up with me or stay on the ground floor
[02:57.70]I don't need shelter from the downpour
[02:59.76]Y'all could be whatever you want, just not my downfall
[03:03.69]they tryna make me slow, tryna take me, NO!
[03:06.75]can't be my downfall
[03:09.06]they tryna knock my grind
[03:10.68]I won't stop, I'm fine
[03:12.26]Can't be my downfall
[03:13.57]No moment of clarity
[03:14.94]the next fight showing is a rarity
[03:16.50]severity of me against my growing popularity
[03:17.94]rappers won't rap, I'm forced to believe they scared of me
[03:21.49]but can no longer use the escape goat they not aware of me
[03:24.68]so y'all can go and throw your little pot shots
[03:27.23]some dudes dissed me and temporarily got hot
[03:30.00]I'm getting my head right recollected
[03:31.31]
[03:32.69]Y'all looking for some website resurrection
[03:35.12]being that I got too much to lose
[03:37.00]or maybe a slight chance that a nigga guilty
[03:39.13]of all that I'm accused
[03:40.57]no longer amused
[03:41.63]affected my loved ones, now
[03:43.06]they starting to bruise
[03:44.25]and I don't want no parts of that abuse
[03:46.43]wouldn't wish it upon my worst foe a day in my shoes
[03:49.30]that'll just eliminate any excuse
[03:51.06]and why entertain em
[03:52.69]old me would' a lost my sense's
[03:54.64]y'all just helping the new me regain em
[03:56.82]been punched in the face,
[03:58.01]it was either feed my family
[03:59.63]or hunt with a .38
[04:00.75]and I ain't want brunch to wait
[04:02.53]I've outgrown hip hop
[04:03.53]turned into a day care
[04:04.79]so next time so shit is on my mind, it'll stay there
[04:08.29]I'm staring at the man in the mirror
[04:10.41]but it ain't helping see the man any clearer
[04:12.67]so I get MIA from around y'all
[04:15.56]till God stops answering these prayers for my downfall
[04:18.09]
[04:19.35]I'm sorry I ain't around more
[04:21.29]come up with me or stay on the ground floor
[04:23.59]I don't need shelter from the downpour

[04:42.22]if I ain't have a soul a nigga always had you
[04:44.98]pardon Dude, but I gotta speak candidly
[04:47.11]How the FUCK!!! could you abandon me
[04:49.47]with 5 years of blood sweat and tears
[04:51.66]but there was obviously a disconnect
[04:53.11]we turned that into a disrespect
[04:54.94]said she been holding it inside for years, she's unhappy
[04:57.57]so the girl I wanna marry was afraid to come and tap me
[05:01.44]so I went away on tour
[05:03.38]
[05:04.73]and you went on one of your own
[05:06.73]and while you was on the horn all day, with old boy
[05:09.41]did you ever think about what it would do to your home
[05:13.28]what's his name, where's he live
[05:15.09]what is it he offers? what's he got to give?
[05:17.61]and I love you so much that when I caught onto your fibs
[05:20.47]I hit you like a man, you wore it in your ribs
[05:23.36]I was heated, but had to be strong enough to remove the infidelity
[05:26.35]and see what's underneath it
[05:27.97]come to find out you felt lied to and cheated
[05:30.84]mistreated and kept it a big secret
[05:34.12]or are you just loose
[05:36.07]and I'm so naive I'm tryna give you an excuse
[05:39.07]now that I refuse to believe
[05:40.81]we life partners, holy water on whatever devil comes and try to part us
[05:44.62]can't use anything I ever gave you to bury me
[05:47.53]you supposed to be the one that bury me
[05:50.22]you want to leave than goodbye
[05:51.92]think the grass look greener on the other side
[05:54.35]but it's dye
[05:56.37]I'm sorry I ain't around more
[05:58.36]come up with me or stay on the ground floor
[06:00.86]I don't need shelter from the downpour
[06:03.42]Y'all could be whatever you want, just not my downfall
[06:07.03]they tryna make me slow, tryna take me, NO!
[06:09.90]can't be my downfall
[06:11.29]they tryna knock my grind
[06:14.04]I won't stop, I'm fine
[06:15.43]Can't be my downfall
