On My Own

At times, I used to wonder

Why there's nothing in my wallet

Til I accept the faith like ms. wallace

That life is like creflo speaking at a college

So listen up or you might miss the dollars

This is it, I promise

Anyhow, I don't get tip-top honors, then

At least save my spot at the hip-hop honors

And let's be honest: we don't need a lie detector

Don't try to make a scene like you was once my investor

You never believed so you ain't gotta lie to dexter

But that's exactly where the blame starts

Cause they be throwing dirt like

Lebron before the game starts

But king james couldn't take me off the throne

Cause when it comes to rap

I do this on my own

I can do it on my own

I don't have to listen to your lies (forever)

Your lies (forever)

I been moving on my own for some time now

So I gotta say goodbye (forever)

Goodbye (forever)

When you on the road to the riches

And you get to where the road stops

The people in your life are either

Shortcuts or roadblocks

But one thing you can count on

When you encounter a hater

They say waddup now

Then talk about you later

But if I try to cater and connect

Myself to y'all

You still will have a hang up

Like a disconnected call

Trying to please you all is

Something I've outgrown

Cause when it comes to rap

I do this on my own

The same homies who I thought were my support system

Got the nerve to judge me like the court system

But what drives me like the valet section

Is knowing that the game is so vile and wretched

That you can't even let your guard down

For a second and that keeps me on my toes

Like ballet lessons. so a school transfer

Couldn't get me out my zone

So when it comes to rap

I do this on my own
