(HOOK) 2X
I'M JUST A TROUBLED SOUL OUT FOR THE HUSTLE N FLOW YET I DON'T KNOW
WHEN THIS MUSIC GONNA BLOW HOW LONG WILL I FOLLOW THIS ROAD?
OR WILL I GIVE UP MY GOALS? THE OUTCOME IS YET TO BE TOLD

VERSE 1

REAL WHO'S FAKE WHO'S A FUCKING SNAKE MOTHERFUCKERS COME AROUND
ONLY OUT OF BENEFIT WOLFING ON THE LOW BUT IN PERSON THEY ACT
INNOCENT WHAT IS THIS SHIT WHEN MOTHERFUCKERS PRETEND IT HURTS
WHEN YOU CAN'T TRUST FAMILY OR FRIENDS I JUST SPEND MY TIME FOCUSED
ON MY GRIND YET IT FEELS LIKE I'M SEARCHING FOR SOMETHING I WON'T FIND
REACHING FOR GOAL LINE IF THEY PAY ME NO MIND THEN WE WASTING MORE

BE SLAINED AND NAMED A MARTYR OR WILL I REMAIN TILL I GO INSANE AND
BLOW MY BRAINS FROM THIS FAME

LATELY I'VE BEEN CONTEMPLATING WHETHER IT'S LIFE OR DEATH
TAKE CONTROL OF MY LAST BREATH LORD FORGIVE MY DISRESPECT
DON'T MEAN TO BE BLASPHEMOUS YET MASK MY EXPRESSIONS
ON THE MIC SO HAZARDOUS YET LACK THE ATTENTION NO WONDER
WHY PROPHET IS SO GOD DAMN AGGRESSIVE DEPRESSED IN HIMSELF
THEN HARD LESSONS ARE DEALT FOR WILLIKERZ WHO'S STRETCHING FOR HELP
I HIT HIM BELOW THE BELT JUST TO SEE HOW IT FELT BUT I WAS BEING AN ASS
I ONLY DID IT FOR LAUGHS YET IT MADE YOU THINK YOUR ONLY ARTIST WOULDN'T LAST POCKETZ AND RANA WANTED US TO STOP THE DRAMA PROPHET JUST
RELAX AND SMOKE YOUR MARIJUANA HOW I'M SUPPOSE TO CHILL WHEN I'M
STILL ON THE SAME ROUTE LEFT IT UP TO WILL AND MY SHIT STILL AIN'T OUT
BUT WHEN IT'S FINALLY HERE I KNOW THOSE DAYS THEY GONNA COUNT LOYAL
TILL I DIE SO THESE PUNK MOTHERFUCKERS HAVE NO DOUBTS
