Stronger in my broken places
Just take the shot, don't ever waste it
Some chase the bottle, you could face it
The winning path could be adjacent
When niggas hating I don't say shit
Just show 'em that you're far from basic
Some tell you tighten up, when they tense
You focused on me? That don't make sense
Stronger in my broken
Places I was coping
January cut my wrist
Come March and I'm outspoken
I ain't need a joint for this
Na, I ain't even toking
Said I'm stuck inside this f*cking hole
My Lord gon' throw the rope in
Sometimes I need a cigar
Ambivalence with the weed
Sometimes I want some good head
I love a woman who reads
Spent some time in these books
Think I'll love traveling the seas
Probably meditate with the monks
Plus I like me some good Chinese
Never been there before 'cept some lil time in my thoughts
A lot of times in the dark
But my vision's got light
I see myself further than where I aim and those expectations of me
My walk a lil taller, the air I'm breathing is cleaner
Glowing right from my soul
Crack a smile with my crooked teeth
Let em whisper and gossip bout me
Y'all talking right in y'all sleep
Each one I hope to teach one
Some preaching but just ain't reaching
Them haters show love in numbers
They selling like 1-4-3
Misery, keep em company
I ain't givin em one penny
Ain't no thug but I keep it G
I be honest when I speak
I'm a seeker of the truth, so leave that bullshit out the booth
My fam came from a 3rd World Country
I do this for mi yout
Some ah duppy some ah brute
Some ah die ri affi school
Some niggas turn to robbing
Some scared of change or something new
If I'm wrong don't debate it nigga
Show me your f*cking statement
I'm tired of you niggas playing
You talking but you ain't saying shit
Stronger in my broken places
Just take the shot, don't ever waste it
Some chase the bottle, you could face it
The winning path could be adjacent
When niggas hating I don't say shit
Just show 'em that you're far from basic
Some tell you tighten up, when they tense
You focused on me? That don't make sense
Stronger in my broken
Places I found hope in
January shit was straight
Come March that ass is pokin
I'm just joking
But did I make my point?
We could change our situation
If our focus stays employed
Some niggas be making moves
Some niggas be making noise
Some niggas be making plays and
Some niggas play with the boys
Contemplated conversations, they got me paranoid
Like, I wanna hit up the spot but there's places I still avoid
Places I'm gonna go but can't get there f*cking yo hoe
I done been there before, stepped on opportunities toes
Missed a chance to get doe, when I coulda gave em some heat
When I coulda f*cked up this beat, I was taking Ls in the street
Irrational decisions came from emotions taunting me
Had me begging God on my knees
Like, take these demons pl-please
Hesitating to pray but deep down I know I believe
Niggas try to deceive and them bitches run game too
Why you search for the chi when you got it? Just come through
No one taking, I'll let you have it
Cause trust me dog, I ain't you
Said, why waste a confrontation on people who got no clue?
You ain't solving my problems and I won't let you give me a new one
Don't worry bout what I'm doing
My goal is what I'm pursuing
I'm turning shit into sugar
I'll dig a palace from ruins
They ask me questions bout who I'm dating and who I'm screwing
The answer's f*cking busy
You talking guap, I'll fit you in
