00:00:01.200 --> 00:00:03.800
Joyner Lucas, real powerful artist
00:00:03.900 --> 00:00:05.800
What is it about him that you like?
00:00:05.900 --> 00:00:10.300
He was saying a lot of lines that
I saw some of me in that
00:00:10.400 --> 00:00:17.400
But at the same time, it was different
because it was like he's not compromising
bars to tell his story
00:00:17.500 --> 00:00:19.700
He's still got complexity in there
00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:21.900
Like he's taking you on his journey
00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:24.800
And I never snapped out of that
journey 'til it was over
00:00:24.900 --> 00:00:29.000
And I was like, "Yo, this kid
is fuckin' incredible"
00:00:29.500 --> 00:00:31.900
Straight out the mud, the kitchen
is dirty, just hit up the plug
00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:33.700
And copped me a thirty,
I'm not who I was
00:00:33.800 --> 00:00:36.400
The vision was blurry, I'm seein' shit
clear, that picture is murky
00:00:36.500 --> 00:00:39.300
When I was a kid, I thought I was
worthy of feelin' some love
00:00:39.400 --> 00:00:41.800
But love ain't deserve me, I wish I knew
then that lovin' would hurt me
00:00:41.900 --> 00:00:43.800
I'd sever that bridge before
it can burn me
00:00:43.900 --> 00:00:45.500
My mama was hard, my daddy concerned
00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:47.200
He was beatin' my ass, ain't
show me no mercy
00:00:47.300 --> 00:00:49.000
Thought he was Joe, them
whippers were dirty
00:00:49.100 --> 00:00:50.800
He tried to make music, the
shit wasn't workin'
00:00:50.900 --> 00:00:52.700
He taught me to rap, was
practicin' early
00:00:52.800 --> 00:00:54.500
I wanted a dad, but he never earned me
00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:56.200
Traded his sons for power of attorney
00:00:56.300 --> 00:00:58.200
I traded his love for diamonds
and pressure
00:00:58.300 --> 00:01:00.000
I'm not who you knew, don't
act like you know me
00:01:00.100 --> 00:01:01.700
A lot of shit change, I'm
not like the old me
00:01:01.800 --> 00:01:03.500
The money and fame'll never control me
00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:05.400
But I went through things,
I wish you done told me
00:01:05.500 --> 00:01:07.200
I still need the change
from niggas who owe me
00:01:07.300 --> 00:01:08.900
I won't take the blame for
callin' you broski
00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:10.800
That's really your name,
you used to be brodie
00:01:10.900 --> 00:01:12.700
But now you a lame, you
niggas can blow me
00:01:12.800 --> 00:01:14.500
A whole lot of money,
a whole lot of fakes
00:01:14.600 --> 00:01:16.300
Red dot on your body, I know
how to trace (Brr)
00:01:16.400 --> 00:01:18.000
I don't really stunt 'cause
I know how to shake
00:01:18.100 --> 00:01:19.900
If I wanna stunt, I just
pull out the safe
00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:21.700
Whole lot of cake and
I know how to bake
00:01:21.800 --> 00:01:23.500
Parkin' lot pimpin', I
pull out the Wraith
00:01:23.600 --> 00:01:25.300
And bury you niggas and
pull out the rake
00:01:25.400 --> 00:01:27.300
You showin' your card, but
you still not an ace
00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:29.200
Some niggas tell me I remind 'em of Em
00:01:29.300 --> 00:01:30.900
The MMLP album had me on ten
00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:32.700
The shit I was goin' through
made me a stan
00:01:32.800 --> 00:01:34.500
A lot of that pain I been
still holdin' in
00:01:34.600 --> 00:01:36.400
Niggas who hate him the
same ones who hate me
00:01:36.500 --> 00:01:38.100
Then smile in my face and
be shakin' my hand
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:39.500
Crazy how even back then
00:01:39.600 --> 00:01:43.200
Always knew that one day I'd
relate to the way that I am
00:01:44.800 --> 00:01:45.900
That's the way that I am
00:01:47.500 --> 00:01:48.200
(Joyner, Joyner, Joyner,
Joyner, Joyner)
00:01:48.300 --> 00:01:49.500
It's the way that I am
00:01:51.900 --> 00:01:52.950
It's the way that I am
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:54.100
Crazy how even back then
00:01:54.200 --> 00:01:56.500
Always knew that one day I'd relate
to the way that I am (Ayy, ayy)
00:01:56.600 --> 00:01:58.200
Takin' a chance, I'm shakin' the dice
00:01:58.300 --> 00:02:00.000
She used to be a ho, you
made her your wife
00:02:00.100 --> 00:02:01.700
Don't matter if I lose,
I came here to fight
00:02:01.800 --> 00:02:03.600
I feel like two wrongs
gon' make me a right
00:02:03.700 --> 00:02:05.300
Talkin' my shit, ain't sayin' it nice
00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:07.200
I saved these drugs, I'm
raisin' the price
00:02:07.300 --> 00:02:08.900
Your energy's trash, you
say that it's life
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:10.900
My angels are black and Satan is white
00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:12.600
I sprinkled some glass and
made you some rice
00:02:12.700 --> 00:02:14.400
My chopper gon' blast,
I'm aimin' to snipe
