I Don't Do It For Me

Truth is I ain't ready for it Truth is that I can't ignore it (Yea) Truth is really the fame used to pull me toward it Heard my name I thought it'd pull me forward Stay in the game and get induct to hall of fame I thought it'd pull me forward I thought wrong, listen Message been the same But now I flaunt what I was gifted It ain't always been this way I drifted Back when I was writing catch me Things was feeling different Wishing things could be the same Stopped to see the sights and saw the game was flawed Took a loss But I gained some knowledge sound like Eve a lot (Man) Sound like evil haunts the vision I cant keep em off By myself He tore that creature off I keep them verses in my speaker box Saw the homies getting saved when I was telling stories That's when I realized I don't do it for me That's when I realized I don't do it for me That's when I realized I don't do it for me That's when I realized I don't do it for me That's when I realized time is ticking, time to get to work Glad He saw the vision first Feel I'm on a race against time but I ain't reaching first Sure ain't reaching last Narrow path before I reach the hearse Remember when they used to laugh But now I reach them first Remember times we had on mask But now I see who hurting I see the world and know one things for certain We all looking for that thing in life to make sense of our dreams and why celebrities And why people are killing in them streets My God its time to heal up Took a step back to rewind the film up I got a past, I got a lot to heal from (Yea) I had a change of heart, but that don't mean I'm perfect I'm forgiven by His grace the real one (Yea) I graduated from wanting the fame To want to explain why I ain't living in vain That's a fact and I Saw the homies getting saved when I was telling stories That's when I realized I don't do it for me That's when I realized That's when I realized I don't do it for me For me For me For me For me For me For me For me
