[00:01.608][Verse 1]
[00:24.428]Let's try and guess who's speaking true from the heart
[00:26.597]I played ball at a school in Elizabeth
[00:28.201]And I exhibited filthy moves from the start
[00:31.165]I went to Duke, 'cause I was able to shoot insane from the arc
[00:34.108]Plus I could juke, scoot, in and out of lanes avoiding the charge
[00:37.615]Think the world annoyed at a star but I'm just enjoying the art
[00:40.583]Them packed stadiums never filled the void in them parks
[00:43.536]Them last second shots screaming 'Kobe' all by my lonely
[00:46.775]Couldn't mold me for the evil the world еventually showed me
[00:49.760]Thosе ones who mentioned me owe me
[00:51.372]But I ain't one to hold a grudge
[00:53.230]They couldn't show me love
[00:54.567]So they showed me up 'cause they souls corrupt
[00:56.738]So what's up?
[00:57.538]Number one draft pick, got the Cavs lit
[00:59.721]But life ain't all about playing ball some people don't have shit
[01:02.669]For real you don't need to speak with discretion
[01:05.630]'Cause I don't live my life for the sake of people's perceptions
[01:08.613]Nah, you see me, you see imperfections
[01:11.598]Maybe a snide remark, sarcasm leaving aggression
[01:15.091]I can't believe it's a question
[01:16.436]Don't ask me about my mood again
[01:18.308]I'd be a billionaire if I'm paid whenever a human sins
[01:21.560]2020 COVID hits, fear and panic is moving in
[01:24.799]But I refuse that vaccination needle going through my skin
[01:27.757]They said that I was selfish and questioned what I would do to win
[01:30.951]Crossover hesitation, skip through and spin
[01:33.948]That's what I'm paid to do in gyms
[01:35.810]But when it comes to my body, it's my body
[01:37.993]My decision, can't believe in this life we living
[01:40.124]Huh, and I'm not trying to incite division
[01:43.348]I'm just trying to help my team win and fight through a tight division
[01:46.613]Fast forward a couple years, you seeing what I envision
[01:49.818]My people been kept in the dark, I'm trying to rewrite the system
[01:53.010]Who are the originals?
[01:54.357]They won't tell us the origins
[01:55.982]I posted up a link to a doc, they thought that was fraudulent
[01:58.977]They thinking I won't score again
[02:00.579]Spirit's good and my soul's fine
[02:02.496]The shit that hurt the most, I was torn apart by my own kind
[02:05.430]Shannon Sharpe, Stephen A, Barkley said I was so blind
[02:08.428]Shaq said I'm an idiot, and I was canceled in no time
[02:11.657]And since then, how many kids I fed on my own dime
[02:14.881]Who am I?
[02:17.833][Break]
[02:19.167]Is anybody out there, man?
[02:22.927]I just want to know who you are, Who are you?
[02:28.033]Are you out there? Please answer
[02:30.160]
[02:30.419][Verse 2]
[02:30.974]Let's try and guess who's speaking more from the heart
[02:32.886]I went to school for chemical engineering
[02:35.293]It was there when the cancer tore me apart
[02:37.149]Before I start, let me apologize
[02:38.753]I can still see my mama's pain when my father cried
[02:42.006]But he never lost his pride
[02:43.614]That's why I try and talk to guys, give 'em game
[02:46.334]You can't be no victim to these women's pain
[02:47.971]Cause I just find that shit insane
[02:49.563]That's something I can't entertain
[02:50.895]Nas said, "sleep with the cousin of death"
[02:53.078]Well, insanity is maybe a friend of fame
[02:55.228]I say all that to say, before all the fame and all of the accolades
[02:59.036]Nobody cared if this brother passed away
[03:01.207]Let's take it back a bit
[03:02.801]I was consulting men that was black and rich
[03:05.232]Worked on their image, gave them a classic fit
[03:07.821]That's when I realized
[03:08.641]Women that's chasing men who was rated 10
[03:11.323]Can't be a winner if you rated barely 5
[03:13.227]Hated to hear the truth
[03:14.841]Was trained to hear the lies
[03:16.487]I tried to share the proof
[03:17.838]Despite all the teary eyes
[03:19.178]There's certain things that women just rather not want to hear from guys
[03:22.143]I wasn't here to offend you, I was just here to try
[03:25.094]Either you Instagram, follow, tweeting, or friends on LinkedIn
[03:28.366]I was just telling you women what all these men are thinking
[03:31.096]There's nothing wrong with that plumber making a hundred grand
[03:34.078]Or that guy that's working hard at construction went to run numb his hands
[03:37.040]Damn, now that's what I call a ****ing man
[03:39.983]And you think that's a step down for you?
[03:41.579]Help me to understand
[03:43.176]Perhaps can it be a blatant attack on the black family?
[03:46.687]A man without woman, is that sanity?
[03:49.148]A mother of five trying to survive all this calamity
[03:51.865]Wants Meek Mill and I can't tell her that that's fantasy
[03:55.104]Go on Instagram and praise killers, say free the homie
[03:57.867]When I died, you said I deserved it and you ain't even know me
[04:01.119]But still my spirit is good and trust that my soul's fine
[04:04.037]The shit that hurts the most, I was torn apart by my own kind
[04:07.050]Who am I?
