Let me tell you something you already know
The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows
It's a very deep and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are
It will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it
And you, you're nobody
It's gonna hit as hard as life
But it ain't about how hard you hit
It's about how hard you keep getting hit
And keep moving forward
How many of you think you can keep moving forward
Ayy, Abba Cadabra
I never believe in magic till I see my dog turn snake
Really had to put overtime up in that booth
Nowadays, it be hard to keep people awake
Better friends need some better replacements
No, I can't sit here and let you just lie to my face
And I promise mama I'll make it
Put that on both of the names on the side of my face
They been pushing my back while I'm reaching for greatness
I don't want to hear nothing but pure motivation
Still put on work when I'm out on vacation
Can't worry about the next nigga pockets, my pockets inflating
Gotta watch who you let in your circle
They crossing them out for some money
These niggas be jealous, these niggas be envious
F*cked up part, thats its probably your homie
These niggas be.. (Closer than Close)
I had a vision that we was in perfect position
I dream about my niggas winning
I be inviting them out and they never attending
I done seen niggas come up with lies in the quickest
When it come down to me, niggas always forgetting
Just watch em they
I looked out for some people that ain't even looking my way
That's great
They ain't want to believe in my play
Now I gotta go make em believe what I say
Standing foot six for whatever I stand on
And I'm always outside with my brand on
When they taught me the game, it was hands on
These niggas learning from bitches with man tones
When I first started rapping, niggas used to find that shit funny
Like, niggas did not take me serious
Niggas used to literally laugh at me when I called myself a rapper
But now it's cool for everybody to be a rapper
Everybody rap
Joke's on you
Abba Cadabra
I'm about to bust out with magic
Finna eat up the beat like some acid
Since Middle school young nigga, been had some status
Use to Ball on the field in the hall with the Ratchets
Tragic
Not on my level, so scratch it
Don't compare me to locals
I'm trying to compare with the masses
I just block out the hate with the glasses
Not poppin yo shit how I pop it
I don't need a flash
If mama don't know you, then you not my brother then
Stacking up chips, see you boys on the other end
Don't f*ck with niggas that f*ck with the other end
Don't change when that money start flooding in
Watch out for snakes they closer than you think
So close, you barely gotta reach
Kick the f*ck niggas out the rink
They'll be the ones get you faster than you blink
So close
So close
