Elevation

Yikes, this a place near you You got this energy inside you, can't hide, can't mute Time is everything, my dawg, they put they blame on you And try to question your morality, you give them the truth A couple people feel the way, but you don't owe niggas nothin People only call your phone if they needing for somethin Sit back and analyze, you the light that's gon' shine If you ask them for somethin', they wouldn't give you a dime You got brothers, you don't got friends And if they claim that they know you, you a simple man Your tolerance up to here, see, you a grown man If you don't feel him from the jump, they don't understand Like, like, what's it good for? Embrace takin' L's, they duckin smoke You'd rather stay calm, otherwise, unless provoked A bunch of yes-mens in your circle gotta go They gave him a yes, but all your life, they told you no Elevation, you know that comes with the hatred You either gon' fold or you gon' fake it til' you make it elevation Can't nobody stop this progress, can't nobody stop this mindset Elevation, you know that comes with the hatred You either gon' fold or you gon' fake it til' you make ya elevation Can't nobody stop this progress, can't nobody stop this mindset A different attitude when it comes to that pape It's evil in the world, f*ck the love, support the hate It's in your DNA, they can't say you ain't great It's hard to be real when you surrounded by the fake They try to dim your light, but in the don't lose composure You strive for elevation, it's some shit they never told ya F*ck a nigga and f*ck a bitch, that's the culture They only wanna feed on your spirit like some vultures That man know he moving wrong, that's intuition That woman know she moving wrong, that's intuition You dim your light, operating with your feelings And you yelling to the sky, and its a shame nobody hear you Self-awareness to some means cocky Relationship with friends get rocky, with age comes honesty If they can't grow, then you let them be It's cruel, but that's the way it gotta be Elevation, you know that comes with the hatred You either gon' fold or you gon' fake it til' you make ya elevation Can't nobody stop this progress, can't nobody stop this mindset Elevation, you know that comes with the hatred You either gon' fold or you gon' fake it til' you make ya elevation Can't nobody stop this progress, can't nobody stop this mindset
