All Of Me

I give you my all.. but it seems like that's not enough

Now you can get all of me

A lot of things have changed from what I see

Is this the way its s'possed to be?

Are you in that mood yet?

One mo' 'gain

ARE YOU IN THAT MOOD YET?

Look, they say tomorrow's not promised, but if it was I wouldn't get open

Wouldn't get suits them shits was made to be broken

'Member comin up dudes talkin bout hoes, boastin

I was just a Juvenile movin in Slow Motion

I dropped outta school to be a dude with mad jewelry

Once I got it shit wasn't even cool to me

I dreamt of condos and video vixens

Until I learned most girls in videos is pidgeons

I just wanted the world to see that I was for real wit it

Wanted a deal, I got it and couldn't deal wit it

I want me and my old homeboys to still kick it

I wish they saw me as Mouse and not a meal ticket

Let the beat play

I wish I could see a day wit no he say, she say, just wanna see Trey

Wanna play the hood and not fuck with the toasters

Middle child, wish me and my brother was closer

I wanna scream at her, catch myself before I start to

And then remember it takes two people to argue

All she do is provoke me

All I do is diss her

All I did was shake her

She say that I hit her

She just takin everything I say out of context

I'm tryin not to black, I'm like a nigga wit a complex

Was mad as a FUCK, didn't even show it

Yesterday was better off, didn't even know it

Complete role reversal so it's usless these days

TV got real, music went fake

Please help her for God's sake

When I proposed to the game I figured life was merry

5 years later I'm feelin like Tyler Perry

Maybe I'm exhausted, maybe I just lost it

Maybe I should pick up a pen and try 'n force it

Same old story, guts and no glory

They tryna low ball me, do him like Joe Torre

I reintroduced myself to the world, I'M JERZ

I'm a artist, I paint pictures, I don't rhyme words

More than a rapper I pay attention to detail

But how I do in retail tells me if I prevail

Leadin all the way see these trials and tribulations

Foul situations with some mild stipulations

I feel like being a addict cuz it hurts

But somethin 'bout dude makes bad shit worse

Look, its three types of niggas in this world ya know

So you either gon' make shit happen OR

Watch shit happen OR

Not know what happened

So i couldn't just sit there like 'FUCK rappin'

Its dudes with problems I couldn't imagine havin

If I had to have 'em I couldn't fathom me lastin, like

I used to bump into Tammy in the club

Few of them, she even helped a nigga get in

See a person long enough you know you bound to get fly wit em

Care for em, be more than high and by wit em

Its been a while, I can't front like I ain't phased

She was my reality check, cuz we the same age

I mean she put on a show that you CAN'T stage

She made the shit sound effortless

I was damn near in tears checkin my messages

I got goosebumps all over my skin

She said "Mouse I highly doubt that I'll ever see you again

Hope everything is well kid

You see I'm just findin out I have a brain tumor but I never felt it

The doctor's givin me three weeks to live

Not three weeks til I die, thats three weeks to give

I just wanna tell you that I love you and I care

I wish you all the best throughout the rest of your career"...

And then she broke into tears

I pressed 7, took the phone from my ears

Sometimes the simplest of things people need it

But I ain't call back in fear of being speechless

What was I to put her at ease wit?

I picked a real bad time to be stradegic

I think my lifes bad, pickin up the pieces

Some folk already got they appointment to see Jesus

In this world full of diseases

I've learned not to bite my tongue or have siezures

Depression tells me I suck

So I reply "I ain't here cuz I fell down, i'm here cuz I got up"

Shit came outta nowhere, was real random

According to him, I'm responsible for Jerz too

"I never helped niggas?" How the FUCK you think they heard you?

Muhfucka's got a lot of nerve duke

I was the nigga believed in you spittin

Had to con the industry just so they would listen

But go 'head, you just gon' wreck yourself

How was you protectin me, you can't protect yourself

Keep the lies to a minimal, just read your interview

And can't help but ask what's gotten into dude

Media training but he don't know how that go

It help you come across not soundin like an ASSHOLE

In my past though been to jail, I ain't enjoy it

So why would I stand behind the mic and exploit it?

I ain't ig'nant, just because I exercise spiritually

They try to ignore how I exercise lyrically

I thought I had a great job

Back when niggas loved the culture, wasn't in it for the money like a A-Rod

Even when I'm spittin bout current events

Its a sublime sayin 'Who's more current than him?'

So I'm wonderin, if a higher power tryna underman

When you shoot for the stars, sometimes you gonna jam

I ain't been to Summer Jam

I learned from Lupe: when you Dumb It Down its just harder to understand

2008, foes is still near me

So you can think I'm tight as FUCK, I'm still weary

The Geto Boys say its all in the mind

Certain wounds only heal over time

No shame in my game

No pain no gain

And since I ain't see a +prophet+ I figured God would stop it

Waitin on a alley, niggas just won't lob it

Still a risk taker lemme put it in words:

Can't steal second base and keep your foot on first

Been about 10 years since I was high off the angel

Now I'm walkin side by side with an angel

In front of my eyes that prize keep gettin dangled

But can't grab at it, my pride is being strangled

Workin shorty's nerves like a personal trainer

But its me, its personal, it ain't her

Friends keep tellin me "leave her," I won't

Cuz she sees somethin in me that I DON'T

And I see somethin in her that ya'll won't

If u never been in love don't tell me I'm wrong

See I preach gratitude, she keeps an attitude

Argue long enough and that shit becomes laughable

My norm now since my heart is so natural

Wish I could dwell into all them niggas after you

So not compatible, that we compatible

Its nothin else in this worl that we would rather do

Anybody out there relate to my pain?

Turn the music up let me know that I'm sane

We broke up, bitches was starin' at my chain

Dude was fuckin you but starin' at my name

But we ain't gotta entertain all that

Back like we never left, we overcame all that

FUCK who made better tacos or who ass fatter

Its different now, right now, none of that matters

Keep bringin it up its gon' backlash us

Why am I meetin' so many backstabbers?

Why whenever I'm bout to crash I go faster?

Past is a disaster

When your house is see through, learn to close your eyes incase the

glass shatters

Just sayin, its always a million more pages when my stupid ass keep

thinkin I'm on the last chapter

No tit for tat, I ain't equipped for that

That and New York, chit chat with a Midget Mack

Cuz I get older....(trails off)
