RichMinded Shades Video (MV)

Behind these rich minded shades, I feel a way, paper chase the grind, Turned me to a slave

We come from nothing but pain and rainy days, don't know how I made it through unscathed, I'm so amazed
Pop out when I want, get to killin da local stage, I belong on BET at VMAs
Niggas throwin' stones and they can't get em' appraised, devil shootin' shots, they ain't kill me, but I got grazed
Fell out the funk, but I knew it was just a phase, back puttin' in work, I ain't workin' not to get paid

They hate how I talk words, cut em' like dirty blades, gotta keep it real with y'all, that's just how I was raised
Had to part with niggas, don't mean a part in my braids, that's just a part of my life, y'all gotta pardon my rage
Got my head to the sky, look at the stars and I gaze, think bout all that I lost and all that I gained, am I sane
We not the same, at all

I been hearin' y'all talkin', but guess what
I was right
You ain't my man, you want a feature, you gon' have to pay that price
I don't wanna pull up to y'all town and do no open mics

I think bigger, want the whole cake, I won't settle for a slice
Don't ask me how I beat the odds, I rolled them mothaf*ckin' dice
If a nigga cross me once, bet he won't get to do it twice
They be fake, one of the reasons that my heart is cold as ice

When I lost my momma, it was hard to get some sleep at night
I still cry when I dream about her, I won't be alright
Look, showin' no emotions, I would rather just stack
It's either tweak on niggas or express it in rap

If it's two sides to a story, then one of em' cap
And these boys runnin' round this bitch lookin' like pap
Hands full of my own problems, I can't pick up they slack
Showin' love ain't never got me shit, but stabbed in the back

They say you changed cause they ain't solid and you chose to react
Real niggas thought we all was supposed to be that, but
Behind these richminded shades, I feel a way

Behind these richminded shades, I feel a way
