Write to Dream I done seen a lot Boy, if I could give you any advice This whole shit is about energy that you put out And energy that you take in Just make sure you save somethin' for yourself Gotta invest in yourself
They told me, "Ask and you shall receive" How a closed mouth supposed to get the cheese? How a closed mouth supposed to get the bread? All that unsaid ain't gonna get you fed All that humbleness dead, it's gonna get me Fed They throwing internet threats, I'm facin' Ego Death This after Neo's death, tell me, have you seen 'em yet? I couldn't count on the culture, how many Migos left? Where the homies went? Intro to my loneliness I'm Kiedis sittin' under the bridge with all the trolls and shit I'm tryna show em shit, but no one ever notices My drive between Skid Row and L. A. motorist Goin' nowhere fast, blowing gas hopes lasts My favorite song on blast, faded pictures broken glass Shout out the brother Case, once I was done with Wake I let the game come to me, this ain't another chase I spoke to Pain 'bout them features he did How he didn't even charge, that's how real that he is When he reached back out 'cause he needed some shit Everybody turned they back, what kinda leaches is this? Shit
A lot of people don't know Most of those features I did back in 2008 and 9 and 10 I did all of 'em for free No Yeah No Oh yeah I mean I did all of 'em for free And I wanted you to do was get back on my shit That's it, I just wanted an even swap 'Cause I was gonna charge you just as much as you charged me So, I did a lot of stuff for free and nothing was reciprocated
I'm the reason for all their deals the past four years Do an interview with Rob, then it's "sign right here" Bunch A& Rs will call like, "Where you find the kid? " Unless I'm getting a percent, never mind that shit I got way too much rapper pride Look how y'all treat life after rappers die All them Instagram likes won't bring 'em back to life Gotta show 'em that love while they was still alive I'm scared how you treat ya real people Build 'em up, tear 'em down, just to feel equal They ain't really love you, stick around, 'cause they need you When it all fall down, watch how many of 'em leave you Everyday you pray, hopin' that your luck change A job that you hate, everyday is mundane Looking for a sign, suddenly then one came Now they mad watching you eat, it's like a Mukbang They talk shit from afar Hatin' on the low like a Asmr Fuck complainin' for today rather change my tomorrow And this my new motto, I don't beg, I don't borrow
