Enough Praise / Recovering

Lyrics

[Part I: Enough Praise] [Verse] Age don't faze as long as I feel fit Shoot my shot, don't care if she got grazed, still hit From a stable house that's how the field trip It's times I ain't want to build, just want to deal brick I seek to find peace, unique as time Roll some explosive blend, plan to speak my mind The cornerstone strong alone, imagine we combined Remember tummies still hungry, happen to eat the rind You know your mission if you ever fed a child It ain't snitching if you're telling on a pedophile Want to end thе cycle, you need the ghetto to bе better now If you don't aim to be tame, you was never wild 'Cause the fuzz wasn't peachy, life was the pits Contest any arrest, was the type to resist What I draw up is for the poor, they enticing the rich Had survivor's remorse during the night at the Ritz When the heart gets dark, it's head lights on the fritz Gave much to the custies, never lightened the zips Chase based on pretty face now excitement is hips Came in framin' my wrongs, that's what my writing depicts That's enough praise for me (That's enough praise for me) Those jobs aren't merit or quotas, won't see us gloating Hopped too many turnstiles to be a token The TEK corrupt, deflect is up, what G is spoken? What Veteran's hale; you dead, or in jail, or we was broken My curb is rough, heard enough condolences Them girls you couldn't bone unless you threw 'em bonuses I pay survival to the bible, was livin' where Jonas is To the sus justice, we was never known as kids Can't vote up the river; no boat, doing grown up bids Once paid, bought enough groceries, couldn't close the fridge Almost caught first time in Newport, was holdin' cigs Could have been a butcher how I recognized beef, notice pigs My cousin gave his gauge to me My mother always prayed for me Times I ain't have it, friends paid for me Wanted my seed, she believed she was made for me Had brothers run in the blaze for me Others risked the grave for me Some ain't mind sitting in the cage for me Most never got booked, took a page from me Follow my lead change ways for me Had wise advisors block shade for me Know I do a show, they rush stage for me It's wild crave accolades, that's enough praise for me [Part II: Recovering] [Verse 1] Some do nothing with they gift, frequently misleading the herd Young put trust in my scripts, read what people deserve Some do nothing but uplift; speak what need to be heard They skim about cheese, they weave, I'm feeding them curd That's word, you just in the way Dodged a few intentionals during the years I've been astray Prides were wise, before the hairs on my chin was gray How elitists treated my brothers; a grim display No fairy tales, weary males making varied sales Every block kept it blazing, it was scary trails I was bound to be underground, caught crazy Ls Where a homie leave you holy, wrote a page of grails [Refrain] My whole life recovering (My whole life) Spent my whole life recovering [Verse 2] God caught me, hard body; you know my anatomy They lines flighty, mines mighty; whole lot of gravity They yap about cash, I casually talk casualty I exorcise demons they seem to leave you with atrophy (Atrophy) [Refrain] My whole life recovering My whole life [Verse 3] They used to tap our phones, I'm from that type of tapestry How I lasso the truth, no wonder women want to tackle me Used to find me in the 90s with a hammer like a Maccabee From The Big Apple, as kids we adapt to the apathy With all my dealings I kept it curt For years rejected feelings, accept the hurt Hard to wake with clean thoughts when you slept in dirt A hungry boy ain't unemployed if his weapon work (His pump work) [Refrain] My whole life recovering (My whole life) My whole life recovering [Verse 4] They did everything they could in attempt to stop me Rather demonstrate the peace like Malcolm, felt his philosophy See I got it popping, was hip to their hypocrisy All close to me hope to seek profits in the prophecy Locked it down got the box of one, gave her proper D Like fish in the sea roped, never treated as property [Refrain] My whole life recovering (My whole life) My whole life recovering [Verse 5] My enemy hindered, could never put an end to me Hate before they know me solely off my identity Smelly without a scent it's how I ended the century Her Lizzy bags for the senses, still they can't censor me The park made me heartless, skin should have been tint for me Brothers avengin' brother death listening to the symphony Kept it in the engine for those trying to injure me My mob was deep 'cause in the streets, knew they had it in for me [Refrain] My whole life recovering (My whole life) My whole life recovering [Outro] Tried to drown us, you start bubblin' (Bubblin') Out the womb was wounded (Wounded) When you steady lose, every move's improvement (Every move) My whole life recovering (My whole life) Heartbroken, trying not to love again (Trying not to love again) My whole life recovering Spent my whole life recovering
