[00:12.30]Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
[00:15.00]
[00:15.20]Be like this, be like this
[00:17.70]
[00:17.90]Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
[00:20.60]
[00:20.80]Yeah, life is a balance
[00:23.10]
[00:23.30]You lose your grip, you can slip into an abyss
[00:25.30]
[00:25.50]No doubt, you see these niggas trippin'
[00:26.80]
[00:27.00]Ego in charge of every move, he's a star
[00:29.20]
[00:29.40]And we can't look away due to the days that he caught our hearts
[00:32.20]
[00:32.40]He's fallin' apart, but we deny it
[00:34.30]
[00:34.50]Justifying that half ass shit he dropped, we always buy it
[00:37.80]
[00:38.00]When he tell us he a genius but it's clearer lately
[00:40.30]
[00:40.50]It's been hard for him to look into the mirror lately
[00:43.00]
[00:43.20]There was a time when this nigga was my hero, maybe
[00:45.70]
[00:45.90]That's the reason why his fall from grace is hard to take
[00:48.30]
[00:48.50]'Cause I believed him when he said his shit was purer and he
[00:50.90]
[00:51.10]The type of nigga swear he real but all around him's fake
[00:53.50]
[00:53.70]The women, the dickriders, you know, the yes men
[00:56.00]
[00:56.20]Nobody with the balls to say somethin' to contest him
[00:58.80]
[00:59.00]So he grows out of control
[01:00.50]
[01:00.70]Into the person that he truly was all along, it's startin' to show
[01:03.80]
[01:04.00]Damn, wonder what happened
[01:05.50]
[01:05.70]Maybe it's my fault for idolizin' niggas
[01:07.80]
[01:08.00]Based off the words they be rappin'
[01:09.50]
[01:09.70]But come to find out, these niggas don't even write they shit
[01:12.20]
[01:12.40]Hear some new style bubblin' up, then they bite this shit
[01:14.90]
[01:15.10]Damn, that's what I get for lyin' to myself
[01:17.10]
[01:17.30]Well, fuck it, what's more important is he's cryin' out for help
[01:19.80]
[01:20.00]While the world's eggin' him on, I'm beggin' him to stop it
[01:22.40]
[01:22.60]Playin' his old shit, knowin' he won't top it
[01:24.80]
[01:25.00]False prophets
[01:26.70]
[01:26.90]Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
[01:29.30]
[01:29.50]Be like this, be like this
[01:31.90]
[01:32.10]Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this, be like this
[01:35.70]False prophets (La-la-la-la- la-la, la-la-la…)
[01:37.50]
[01:37.70]Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
[01:39.90]
[01:40.10]Be like this, be like this
[01:42.60]
[01:42.80]Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
[01:45.90]
[01:46.10]Yeah, false prophets
[01:46.70]I got a homie, he a rapper and he wanna win bad
[01:49.00]
[01:49.20]He want the fame, the acclaim, the respect that's been had
[01:51.60]
[01:51.80]By all the legends, so every time I see him, he stressin'
[01:54.50]
[01:54.70]Talkin' 'bout, niggas don't fuck with him, this shit is depressin'
[01:57.10]
[01:57.30]And I know he so bitter he can't see his own blessings
[01:59.60]
[01:59.80]Goddamn, nigga, you too blind to see you got fans, nigga
[02:03.10]
[02:03.30]And a platform to make a classic rap song
[02:05.40]
[02:05.60]To change a nigga's life, but you too anxious livin' life
[02:07.80]
[02:08.00]Always worried 'bout the critics who ain't ever fuckin' did it
[02:10.50]
[02:10.70]I write what's in my heart, don't give a fuck who fuckin' with it
[02:13.20]
[02:13.40]But in a sense I can relate, the need to be great
[02:16.00]
[02:16.20]Turns into an obsession and keeps a nigga up late
[02:18.50]
[02:18.70]Writin' words, hopin' people observe the dedication
[02:21.40]
[02:21.60]That stirs in you constantly, but intentions get blurred
[02:23.90]
[02:24.10]Do I do it for the love of the music or is there more to me?
[02:26.80]
[02:27.00]Do I want these niggas to worship me?
[02:28.70]
[02:28.90]False prophets
[02:30.40]
[02:30.60]Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
[02:33.30]
[02:33.50]Be like this, be like this
[02:36.00]
[02:36.20]Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this, be like this
[02:39.50]
[02:39.70]False prophets (La-la-la-la- la-la, la-la-la…)
[02:41.30]
[02:41.50]Somebody shoulda told me it would be like this
[02:44.20]
[02:44.40]Be like this, be like this
[02:46.50]
[02:46.70]Somebody shoulda told me it...........
