Verse 1
Why can't yall leave me alone, man seem like everybody be judging me, talking behind my back, faking the smiles then hugging me, pointing fingers hating jealous of my success praying for my downfall, can't handle me being blessed, naw, you'd rather see me at the bottom of the totem poll, scraping for dollars, on the edge bout to lose control, back on the corner still living in tha projects, still struggling down and out wit no prophets, still driving through the hood in a bucket, I'm bout bringing my people over like I'm Harriett Tubman, Been through the fire like Kanye West, beat the odds now I'm on shuffles and ipods, see most of yall could never reach stature, 'cause half of you gangsta rappers is gangsta actors, and backstabbers yall got the game backwards, but Bone and Darkchild make hits like linebackers.

Verse 3
I'm in it for the long hall, committed to the end like John Paul, I'm trying to make a change, throw stones if I'm wrong, if you can do it better, then by all means, shoot for the stars, but stop crushing all of my life's dreams, and let me fulfill my destiny and purpose, quite trying to make me feel no good and worthless, this life is all a playa got to give, so back up and give me room to breath can I live.
