Dre Zounds - Even Better

I'm a be legendary if God willin
To let me keep that as a secondary
Cuz how are you alive if you ain't livin?
Dead before you hit the cemetery
Listen clearly do more than just rappin scary
Horrifically undeniable, don't lie I know you fear me
And hear me, so let me clear the air
I speak the truth but I'm a devil if you fuckin dare
So beware cuz you can't control a man tryna come up out the struggle
Stumble but I adapt to the dangers in the jungle
Off the muscle, I gotta make this my hustle
On this planet of the apes I know it seem kinda subtle, I don’t mumble
But, people hate what they never comprehend
Doubted myself, then proved I was right again
All the diamonds in the rough never forget where they have been
It's like lookin at myself and bein prouder of my twin
I'm a be legendary if God willin’
To let me keep my soul
Accept me whole, if you don't then how will I grow?
It's like watering a plant/ but you fuckin up the flow
Whatchu know about a nigga on the come up
On a lil money so him and his niggaz run up
On you wit the gun up/ tell you shut the fuck up
‘Fore they peel ya muffin cap back blue
But I swear it's not a joke, don’t laugh at my pain
Cuz this niggaz untamed wit no shame, and insane in the membrane
That's why I'm quick to say these rappers lame
You do it for fame, I do it for change
This for niggaz that dress nice but, skills phony
Ain’t no friendly competition we are not homies
But you could tell ya friends about me
Word of mouth, is my numbers are increasin soundly
I been on the grind since a youngin
Was young and buggin, nobody could tell me nothin
Ironic how I turned into somethin
Got my shit together or whatever
And it's better late than never
But never late is even better
Dre this what your LP gonna sound like?
Yea right, if I tell you’d prolly bite
We don’t eat the same boy I gotta different appetite
You a vegan while I really lived a fuckin savage life like
I ain’t really down for the small talk
But I’m up to take walks for these big thoughts
Hit the pavement, tell me what you hold sacred
Is it your checking or your savings?
Is it the drugs or the slave ship?
It’s like we speak another language
Well I could never be a puppet
Even days I was actin, you can tell I really wasn’t
Cuz I do this wit a passion, yet my city never love it
Low key I know they envy when they see me out in public
Because everything they doin it’s like I already done it
Do ya research
This is what it look like when you don’t rehearse, and just dive in feet first
So I’m a be legendary if God willin
That boy a Prophet ready to make a killin
And I’m dealin wit a lotta shit
Cuz all I really wanna do is live debt free and find a way to get rich
That’s a lot to ask?
You niggaz skatin on thin ice til I pull up wit a hockey mask
Hit the execs, tell em fuck the checks, I want cash
Know it’s greener on yo side of the grass
You niggaz done did it!
I try to break it down but they never even get it
My time is approaching fast, it means y’all won’t last
Soon you’ll all be a thing of the past, I’m on they ass
