Sometimes it feel like niggas you love the most be the one that brings you down Just speakin' from experience, 'cause I done been around I remember shit was smooth, we was dreamin' cap and gowns Older niggas preached to us the shit that we see now Some of your friends gon' die, some of your friends gon' live Some of 'em go to jail for all the shit they did Every year they solid, every year they straight I was always solid, solid all the way The way this shit at stake, you couldn't wait your turn Studied my position, really had to sit and learn Reel up all my money, better pay me like Big Worm Still, I'm cleanin' money like a nigga 'fraid of germs Drippin', I'm the flyest, you could never call me sherm This Louis V on me cost me like nothin', I could burn Life is so funny, like every day I see it turn Misunderstood, don't understand, you could learn
I... was born to be great And I... won't let nobody tell me I ain't And I... can't stop, won't stop And I... I
You need to be done, done, done, done And think somethin' over You just need to chill and focus Try to get your life in motion Don't think that I need to Gave you your position, you just gotta see it through Tried to help some niggas, they ain't want it, it was cool Now they try to tell me that I'm actin' brand new I was on my dick in the pit, goin' through all types of shit So, my momma always told me "This the only life you get" Havin' fun, goin' dumb, 'cause we started off with nothin' That's when we was tryna catch an opp and put two in his bun Try to run, are you dumb? It's a beam on every gun Witnesses is dyin', man, I seen that when we come I done seen a lot of niggas fold Seen a lot of niggas change, niggas bold Growin' up, I'm gettin' old, start settin' goals Tryna make more money off my businesses and shows And everybody gon' hate, I'm great, I know Everybody can hate, I'm great, I know And I'm just gettin' wiser as you see the time go I'm just gettin' wiser as you see the time go And everybody can hate, I'm great, I know Everybody can hate, I'm great, I know
(I... was born to be great And I... won't let nobody tell me I ain't And I... can't stop, won't stop And I, woah, woah)
