lyrics

(Verse 1)
I'm gettin' closer to my dreams/
I can almost feel 'em/
But gettin' further from my team/
Can't explain the feelin'/
Seems like them niggas that was wit' you/
From the beginning/
Will be the same ones who'll flip/
Soon as you get to winnin'/
Been in it since you was knee-high/
Now, no L-O-V-E/
No U-N-I-T-Y/
So, I keep my/
Enemies close and friends far, shit/
'Cause even fam'll fuck you over/
Uncle Scar shit.

(Chorus)
My worst fears got the best of me/
And my nightmares seem like reality/
(Nobody) Nobody told me this was part of the game/
Price for the stardom and the fame, man/
So, I let it go (let it go, I let it go)/
Who really got love for a nigga/
Damn, guess I'll never know (I’ll never know, I’ll never know)/
And so, I let it go.

(Verse 2)
Henny got me havin' visions of niggas schemin'/
Shit ain't the same when I look around/
I got some things on my chest/
I need to get 'em off now/
Now, when you high up/
It's hard to see who's really low down/
Been "Jeezy" since '05/
But they call me "'Go" now/
Why?/
This shit ain't changin' me/
Often, I wreck my brain/
Look at the picture that they paint/
And see they never who they claim/
David Blaine/
'Cause they bound to go, missin' on a nigga/
Get the Juice/
And fuck around and go, Bishop on a nigga/
Why?/
Don't you love me like you used to?/
'Cause I'm still that same nigga that you're used to/
Man, I'm just tryna get these commas/
In a world full of Yolandas/
And I'm lookin' for the shore/
But I'm surrounded by piranhas/
So, shoutout them niggas ridin' 'til the wheels fall off/
And fuck them niggas plottin' 'til the bills fall off/
Won't shed a tear for the peers I've lost/
I'd rather murder niggas in these verses/
Watch me kill y'all off.

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
But maybe I'm the one to blame for the broken hearts/
'Cause I'll admit/
At times I'm quick to stop and slow to start/
And it's a trip/
Relationships could be the cost of art/
Make the decision/
To grow together or grow apart/
And though it's hard/
I had to get away to figure out/
About this life/
I'm thinkin' different, dreamin' bigger now/
And breakin' free from all the pain and the misery/
But every now and then, I feel ashamed/
And it's killin' me/
I'm comin' back, though/
My brothers and sisters in the system is who I rap for/
So/
Gotta keep rhymin' and climbin'/
And never plateau/
No/
This for the Mamas/
And we ain't promised tomorrow/
So label me a martyr, I'ma take us farther/
Gynarva/
Van 'Go/
G-Y/
He Chi/
Jeezy/
G-T/
Still me/
Feel me/
Never thrive off the negative/
That life ain't shit/
I had to play it by the book/
Watch I rewrite that shit/
Singin'.

(Chorus) x2
