Yo
Either you play the game or the game plays you (Facts)
And if you don't get the picture, nigga
change angles (Word)
We used to be broke, now our chains dangle (Yeah)
And before the theatre in my crib, it was plain cable (Mm)
Oh, oh you lame, ain't you? (Yeah)
And if you lame, you stay lame, money can't change you
I'm a bigger artist, and I don't care
if we on the same label
I'll put a baby and a Plan B in the same cradle (Grr, baow)

Gettin' rich was my only plan (Ayy)
'Cause you can't raise my son and have an OnlyFans (Facts)
Project windows was my only fans (Yеah)
Take my mama out the hood, that was my only plan (Joyner)
I'm an ovеrthinker that over-plans
You still throwin' haymakers, praying and hope it lands
My sins gon' kill me and I know it can
Like starin' down a barrel of that nine
but I hope it jams (Grr, baow)
Why do niggas hate me? I can't find an answer (Uh)
They remind of some tumors, that's a lot of cancer
Or a lot of banter
Don't know if my son'll be disappointed
or surprised after he finds out I'm Santa (Yeah)
In order to live I needed to know
how I could hide the tantrums (Woah)
In order to get where I needed to go
I took a lot of slander (Facts)
And took a lot of chances (Yeah)
I told wifey, "I got rules, if you call
and I'm with my ho, then I don't gotta answer" (Baow)
You say that I ain't shit, well, you may be right (Facts)
'Cause I can sell your mama drugs after I lay the pipe
I can sell a bitch dope after I raise the price
Fuck gettin' stabbed in the back, I'd rather face the knife
And I want all the smoke, this is not haze
This that homegrown Methadone, John Blaze (Huh)
I hate when you niggas act like you not phased (Woah)
I hate when my bitches act like they not slaves (Ah)
And I'm a born sinner, but I got saved (Joyner)
Show up to the church, then I got paid (Joyner)
I'm what God made (Brr)
And fuck a durag, I had so many brushes
with death, I think I got waves
Lil' roach, I think I got Raid
Pest control on 'em, they got sprayed
The day you can picture givin' cops names
The day that you can picture A$AP Rocky without braids
See Joyner Lucas Live
Get tickets as low as $50

Picture niggas rollin', flyin', foreign floatin'
outer space (Ayy)
Or bitches on Instagram with no filter face (Face)
Picture if judges ain't judge us by our race
My nigga Thugga Thugga would be free
I pray he beat his case (His case)
Picture the industry when it's missin' me
Niggas run they mouth with no insurance
can't even fix they teeth
Everybody tellin' me stay woke, but shit
I need some sleep
I'm 'bout to change my number
drop a comment if we need to speak
All you niggas who did less for me tryna get next to me
I don't trust you niggas with no money
but got expertise (Haha)
Level up or leave, pull up in them SUVs
Security is refugees, travel 'cross the seven seas
People in my pocket like I ain't got one at home to feed
Fell out with my cousin 'cause I won't spot him eleven Gs
Aunty mad 'cause I don't call as much as she be callin' me
I swear to God, sometimes I wish
my family had a referee (Brr, shh)
Big dogs gotta play for keeps (Play for keeps)
I'm courtside or I'm in the suites (Facts, baby)
Some niggas said I don't support the streets (Who's that?)
He just mad that I ain't like his beats (Haha)
The insecurity's so loud
When you win, they wanna stop you
I'm guessin' that's how it go now
The album 'bout to drop, this whole year look like a rollout
They was actin' like they ain't know
but I bet they know now (I bet they know now)

Grr, uh

Been through the pain, been though the struggle
Been through the rain, made it out the jungle
And I'm grateful for it all, the blessings and the curses
The triumphs and the failures, the lessons in the verses
The best and the worse is (Uh) yet to be seen (Uh)
And based on what I've been through
I don't know what that means (What?)
But whatever it's gon' be (Uh) , it's gon' be good
'Cause I know God and knowin' me
it's gon' be hood (Go hard)
Let me walk you through the darkness (Darkness)
walk you to the light (The light)
Walk you through the hardest (The hardest)
fights of your life (Your life)
Walk you through the good times (Good times)
walk you through the struggle (Struggle)
Walk with you through it all
just because I love you (Uh)
Hug you when you need me to (Hug)
scold you when I have to (Yeah)
Teach you when I got to (Come on)
the devil's tryna get at you (Yeah)
Try not to let him grab you (No) , but even if he does
I'll be right there to help get him off just
because (Just because)

Before I was born, You was right there (Uh)
Even after I'm gone, You'll be right there (Uh)
And whenever it's on, You'll be right there (Come on)
I'll make it through the storm
'cause You'll be right there (What?)
Before I was born, You was right there (Uh)
Even after I'm gone, You'll be right there (Come on)
And whenever it's on, You'll be right there (What?)

In the name of Jesus
I love it, I love it, man, I thank You for it all
I thank You for it all
I thank You for my blessings
I thank You for my curses
I thank You for my problems
I thank You for my, my, my triumphs
My, all, I just thank You for it all
Everything I went through
I know it was for the grace of God
And it's gon' help somebody someday
Hello? I'm talkin' to somebody
I'm talkin' to somebody

Grr
Yeah
Hey
Come on
I didn't go, I didn't go
I didn't go, I didn't go, no, no (No, no)
Grr

And at this point, I felt like my kids
are the only thing that really keeps me goin'
you know what I mean?
They just uncovered the real you
