Save Yourself
Friends saying let’s go, but they only want your gold
Homie, better save yourself
Drugs made you come close, yeah, it almost took your soul
Yeah, you better save yourself
Fame got my head swole, yeah, it really got a hold
Guess I gotta save myself
Money taking control, yeah it’s all a n*gga knows
Damn, I better save myself
Damn, I better save myself
Yeah, you better save yourself
Like it’s your last breath
This life is filled with landmines, could be your last steps
That makes me stomp even harder on this terrain I’m given
Don’t get distracted by getting paid, and not pay attention
And then play the victim
I played the role, acting extra like b-roll
I feed the soul, instead of feeding my ego
I still got an edge, still an upper on the opposition
I find that the only person to fear is that person that’s in the mirror
That’s my only competition
Young, black with no faith in the system
Hope that resonated with those that’s feeling less than
That’s screaming for help, but streams falling on deaf ears
Just believe what I’m saying
These words should strike like a chord, like Stevie’s piano playing
Friends saying let’s go, but they only want your gold
Homie, better save yourself
Drugs made you come close, yeah, it almost took your soul
Yeah, you better save yourself
Fame got my head swole, yeah, it really got a hold
Guess I gotta save myself
Money taking control, yeah it’s all a n*gga knows
Damn, I better save myself
Damn, I better save myself
Yeah, you better save yourself
Real friends keep you grounded so you can elevate
The type that rather stay working instead of celebrating premature with champagne glasses
Yeah, we rather wait
Until some more commas and zeroes are added by two
What some call crazy, I’m like, “It’s cool”
Cut from a different cloth, came from a different school of thought
Play by some different rules
That’s prepared me for what’s yet to come
Handle stress better than some, maybe ‘cause of where I from
They try to turn your truth to something reckless
Unpopular opinions, no political correctness
Never expect me to choose sides
We trying to choose something effective
