Manny Maye - Wisdom

True to the game boy you know the deal
True to myself so you know i'm real
Never gone switch
And I'll never tell
Stumbled but I never fell
Lose now win later
Better story tales
Better story sales
Roof top parties
6th story tales
Gellin' together with ones who hustle to pay the bills
I know that struggle be going and gettin' hella real
But we all stuck
In our own personal battlefields

Knitting my own business ventures
Vanguard funds helpin put the profit together
So I ain't stressin' whoever ain't got the money for bigger endeavors
Index funds got us living better than ever

Belee dat
N***a's wanna return back
But where all your receipts at?
Gang of n***a's wanna claim real when they ain't that
Real n***a's gonna talk they shit
And the wisdom come wit' that
Knowledge turn opinion to fact
Turn a plummet to spike
Turn a death to a life
Turn a moment to forever
Turn a dark to a light
Thomas Edison type
Limelight to my life
Do this shit for a purpose
And I'm just tryna shed light
On a city not bright
By any means
You gonna feel what I mean
All these pictures I'm painting
You gonna see what I've seen
From bad plans to bad hands dealt to the team
I can't allow my life to bust up out the seams
Every rhyme I write is like behind the scenes
True shit
Thanks to Tim For seein' me through this rap shit
Now I wanna grow and make rap hits
Pen Griffey of this pad shit
Stuck in this game for a while
Every song filled wit this passion
Hope these records and these lessons
Everlasting

But that should be the part that you know
From learning the game
To loving your own

Time goes
Goals change
People fade
It's all the same

And this life goes on
I still live strong
And still live long
I write these words
And rap these songs
I learn this game
And pass it on
I deal with life
And still move on
And with my head held high
I give my all
