Green Flower (feat. FloNerd)

Four thirty and I'm wide awake Thinking bout the cheese I be tryna make With these records and the records that I'm tryna break I got a text, the label asking for a final date Thoughts going through my mind lately I got demons who be steady tryna blind date me And I got times when I think that I don't rhyme crazy I gotta head to the stu, I'll catch a vibe maybe I feel this music shit is not fun I get the job done, they say to keep going And these people gonna catch up on the long run How you make a top 10 and I'm not one Wait. I'm last ten, I ain't top 10 Quit tryna hang cos we not friends And I ain't really into following these hot trends But they make it seem I'm standing on the wrong end I'm a victim of my own talent Was aiming at the best but I am my own target Murkin beats in the studio I toe tag em They sleeping on me, wake em up cos I won't have it I been the underdog my whole life Being overlooked is like cold ice And this joint is for the cold nights It's why I spill my pain when I hold mics You see the shit that I'm stuck with I can't escape these bars, I ain't Scofield I'm sick of balling on a budget My own father called me sluggish He thinks I won't amount to shit That was on my mind when I was tryna quit I feel like I got a point to prove I work hard cos I know I got a coin to lose I'm tryna be a billionaire by thirty five F*ck a billion, I want fifty like thirty fives I cant tell my kids that I was scared to try These are thoughts that be running through my dirty mind I never had a convo with my pops I'm out here pushing with no kobo in my purse I pray suicide never run up in my thoughts No companion but the liquor in my cup The smiles got them thinking I dunno what pain is Losing got me thinking I dunno what gain is Been underground got me thinking I dunno what fame is Dumb it down if you tryna be an A-List My homie said I know you really bout the business But these days it ain't about who the realest It's bout the numbers and the social media gimmicks You'd never quench they thirst with them watered down lyrics The industry is in a test tube We all visitors, hanging in the guest room But you bastards is moving with em wet shoes See I'm coming for your king, chess moves It's been a fact that you still cowards I got this far by grace and my willpower I do this all day, you grind for three hours I'm a diamond in the dirt, I'm a green flower
