The biggest lie I ever heard was that the meek shall inherit the Earth/
The humble treated as weak/
Beat until they perish into dirt/
But I'll cherish you first for whatever it's worth/
I knew you was insecure but I saw your potential/
I spoke faith into you, you thought I'd use it against you/
Pure intentions, I stay committed when love was a prison/
Different missions but I tried to see your vision for our best interest/
Lotta stress in it, boy I put my chest in it/
Told my soul through the mic/
You sold your soul for a like/
Fuck all the hype, you my brother but we far from alike/
Obviously bright lights blind sight/
In hindsight, I already won but I put up a hell of a fight/
But we all equal/
Only difference is circumstance, it hurts to advance/
But what's worst than not taking a chance/
Nothing/
You better take it or, watch ya plans slip through ya hands/
Like damn grown man I don't know where I am/ (naw)
But I know who I am/ (I know)
But I know who I am/
But I know/
yo/
yo/
aye/
