[Hook] I tried fry, now what in the fuck it do for me A damn thang, now that fried shit is history I tried snorts, had to leave the dust alone Cause in that mind state, you can't get your hustle on
[E.S.G.] Responsibilities, and priorities It's up to me to be a G, wanna succeed Responsibilities, and priorities It's up to me to be a G, wanna succeed This for them G's running that game, claiming they down with you But once you're broke with nothing to smoke, no one around with you Leave it alone better get gone, before you do a whole zone Drugs'll end your career, or yeah heard the same song Put the blame on, anybody doing me wrong When all I need to do, is get on my knees and pray and be strong Been blessed for so long, the Lord is on his throne He telling me my chest gone, so now it's the microphone Mama screaming pop dreaming, wonder where his son at I keep it up be out of luck, I'll probably have a cardiac Arrest best know that I'm blessed, for minorities If a G wanna succeed, best to get priorities Or lying 'fore you find, you can't shine doing time Been there done that, don't wanna press rewind So this mastermind, designed a way to get it on Recognized responsibilities, and leave that bullshit alone
[Hook]
[E.S.G.] Man it's so hard, to survive in this game With all these trials and tribulations, I felt you might get mayn Steady putting that shit on my brain, and helping me maintain After the hype get down, I look around I see the pain Man it's real in this game, the streets don't give a damn A lot of niggaz went broke, behind the funky ass ram Some don't understand, where the sherm'll take ya Off the ledge flat on your head, to meet your damn maker Keep my mind on my paper, I get high on this money Don't wait to fall broke, to go to church on a Sunday Peer pressure don't run me, fuck follow the leader I be damned if I go wild, being a under achiever So all you nonbelievers, that think that I returned They thought that I'd come short, to the snorts and the sherm You boys best to learn, can't hold me down man I keep coming keep coming, so check the soundscan
[Hook x2]
[E.S.G.] This is your brain on drugs, saw the commercial Damn that shit'll hurt you, when all your friends dessert you Your gal wanna search you, cause all the trust is gone Been up two days in a row, don't you know the dust is gone Can't get your hustle on, what's wrong with your mind state That shit got you shook, and you done took the crime rate Opened up the notch, don't you see where it got me In and out of jail, plus some jackers almost shot me Crackers wanna knock me, so do the shife Like Jigga nigga, this a hard knock life And y'all call it keeping it real, but y'all ain't keeping us alive We best to open our eyes, and learn to survive Without the fo'-five, or that desert eagle blade Check my laptop Macintosh, squashing shit the legal way Responsibility, can you define that term Or them guys around the corner, so you boys better learn
