Slimm Kushie - Down Not Out

I've been down before
But not out for da count
I am a Karnivore
I prey on a vast amount
One thing I cant afford is losing
Just not wat I'm about
I play to win it all
Without a single a doubt

I live for me & my seeds
Until my last days
I'm on a quest for success
I'm at critical stage
So many changes
I'm going thru a difficult phase
I ponder my next move
While setting a kush blunt ablaze. Nowadays catch me
Chillin in a disturbed place
Tryna save face
But still feel like ima castaway
My thoughts in dismay
Inhale da fumes and drift away
So much I need to convey
They hear but listen they portray
Lies are weaved like crochet
To be Loyal or to betray
Been learned life wasn't easy
Wen dad led us astray
Sad but fuck wat u say
Mama say dat Ima chip off
Me, Bo & Drastik on da wrong end of a rip off
Played ball since da tip off
Got Home court advantage
Like money my temper it needs to be managed
Still dream big
Determined and damaged
I'll be damned if i live famished
I'm Looking up cuz da top
Is where ima find solace
Being modest a socialist
Wen its bout da dollar
Neva followed
I Walk da path of a road scholar
Since birth
Had ambitions to be a shot caller
Eyes on my haters
My money, & a loaded revolver

My next move guaranteed to be da very best
Learned life's a test & passing da course equal success
But in order to gain fame
I must shed the excess
I'm losing interest
Renouncing da talent I possess
Riding MARTA I head west
Pondering what's next
No progress I'm dazed
Focused but neva clueless
Born to do something great
Til da end Ima pursue it
Time I abuse it misuse it
I admit dat I'm foolish
At times i wonder how long b4 I'm under da surface
Failure n putting trust in people
Surely makes me nervous
U searching 4 reality tv then look no further
Nun but clowns n characters I can put on a circus
I stand outside of Da circle
It's me versus da world
I'm running to da top of mount prosper
My bond is my word
Shh they speakin my name
I guess I struck a nerve
Stay reserved wit
Steel my actions got em perturbed
They thought dat I dne tapped out
Once da Smoke clears I emerged
Me & da industry converge
My fans n enemies observe
My demeanor's averse
Seek shelter & brace for da worst
Cuz U Neva know which emotion will strike u first
