3:51Yeah Yeah We was trudging through them troubled waters Mud all in our hair and nails In the same boat But some of us knew how to parasail Even with burdens we carry well Hold your horses Cause it's bound to be some ups and downs on life's carousel First you're riding high Then, next you fail This big circle of life? You know it ain't the fairest, well My life a paradox of parallels Two of my potnas from college just became a pair of docs And two other potnas was in the parish jail, sharing cells It ain't like n****s ain't know right from wrong But tryna stay righteous is walking the very thin line that your life is on You can't afford to think your life is long You gotta milk that s*** like Borden 'til your life is gone But on the udder hand, it's what you make it Cause slow & steady only win the race when other m************ pacing get complacent One of my potnas that's a doctor told me to that the key to success is just having patience Ok, s**t I swear to see my people flourish is something I fantasize Cause they way they kill our spirits so young is infanticide They wield enough weapons to make us set Japan aside Cause where we from, n****s show guns like Samurais See we can't align with s*** that we barely know We are who we are And that don't matter where we go My birthplace was scary bro Even before I got to law school All a n**** ever seen was the worst case scenarios Woah Yeah Look I'm in my "something gotta give" phase A "part of me gotta *bleep* so I could live" phase This my "handling my biz" phase Going after what I want I'm moving outta the "is what it is" phase My life been rough and stuff I guess this is RAGE But I'm better than where I was so now I give praise I feel safe Nowadays when trouble coming my way, s***, I just tell it when to go & hit a thizz face Generational curse breaker From the land of the purse takers Was predisposed to thirst paper since first graders This fast life could never teach us that it's worth waiting Since birth we was taught to never let no hurt break us To this day I never let it get the best of me I'm never satisfied, cause I got excessive needs And if it ain't what's best for me I gotta keep it rolling like Kelly if it don't cater to my destiny Cause I ain't gon be shedding tears When i'm thinking bout yesteryear Looking back with regret as I'm checking through all these years Now, the worst case scenario for me in the future Is if a n**** never man up conquer my present fears Tryna navigate this s*** could get scary bro You ready though! You gotta face the music in stereo You feel the most love in your life at your burial From this day forward, I ain't gon see no more worst case scenarios No
