Out The Way

Lyrics

[Intro] Nah man, I'm good I got to be somewhere and it ain't here I wish you the best though That just ain't me, let's go [Verse 1] It's a lot of shady folks living on the planet Some of the worst ones be up in your own family Whole city full of evil bastards I trust gangstas more than the pastors Stop breaking bread with small minds Rule one: protect your energy at all times Build your circle with real women and real dudes Miserable people walk in a room and kill moods K-Rino don't entertain what they talking 'bout Once I see 'em walking in, I be walking out now Ain't tryna hear no pettiness, you dumb as hell Don't put me on no gossip, put me on that money trail Trouble around me, I'ma break those walls Messy conversations, I don't even take those calls Some people wanna see everyone fail Deception outside steppin' like Le'Veon Bell yeah [Chorus] I'm just staying out the way I'm just staying out the way I'm just staying out the way All that petty bullsh—, that ain't how I operate Can't be messing 'round, boy, these streets is too hot to play Caught up in some silly madness, nah, not today (not today) [Verse 2] You're feeling like your patience is long gone Can't even find peace of mind in your own home Bad moods, attitudes goin' on strong People talkin' to you in the wrong tone And I ain't taking that one second, black Tryna learn how to think instead of just react Sometimes you snap when folks don't respect the fact Then they tell you that you're wrong when you check 'em back Nah, that's when their true colors start to wring out It seem like every year, so I gotta clean house Gotta clear the artificial people from the air Now you're changing phone numbers like underwear Want to know how you fell off of your game quick Because in life you become who you hang with A lot of cats play the partner role on the scene Just 'cause you wear my uniform don't mean you on my team [Chorus] I'm just stayin' out the way I'm just stayin' out the way I'm just stayin' out the way All that petty bullsh—, that ain't how I operate Can't be messin' 'round, boy, these streets is too hot to play Caught up in some silly madness, nah, not today (not today) [Verse 3] I ain't hatin' on your hustle, get it how you live But if it ain't for me, I'ma take it to the crib It ain't right to play with freedom every night and day I watched too many of my patners throw their life away Every lick ain't for you, it's time to learn now Understand it's certain things you gotta turn down People plotting, everybody out for your profit Now every dollar that you stacked up, your lawyer got it No more time to run streets every night, hanging Certain decisions that you make can be life-changing I ride solo like that man on the Polo Keeping my thoughts quick, even when I'm moving in slow-mo I'm staying far out your area And money'll make a upright man get out of character Taking drama from my vocabulary Even the one you're sleeping next to can prove to be your adversary [Chorus] I'm just stayin' out the way I'm just stayin' out the way I'm just stayin' out the way All that petty bullsh—, that ain't how I operate Can't be messin' 'round, boy, these streets is too hot to play Caught up in some silly madness, nah, not today (not today)
