What you base your happiness around? Material, women, and large paper? That means you inferior, not major.
Everything will eventually come to an end, So try to savor the moment, cause time flies, don't it? The beauty of life, you gotta make it last for the better, Cause nothin' lasts forever.
I pledge allegiance to the fair and balanced truth. Not the biased truth, Not the liest truth, But the highest truth.
No temporary chaos is worth your sanity.
I never brag, how real i keep it, cause thats the best secret...
No idea is original, there's nothing new under the sun, it's never what you do, but how it's done
Much success to you, even if you wish me the opposite.
It's a thin line between paper and hate, Friends and snakes, nine millis and thirty-eights, Hell or the pearly gates...I was destined to come, Predicted, blame God, He blew breath in my lungs.
Don't ever give up on yourself. Keep pushing because the change of guards is what life's all about. You've always got to stick with whatever you're into because you're day is going to come. You're day is destined. If you walk away from that, whether it be from fear or whether you're just giving up. The greatest sin is fear and giving up.
You have to keep your vision clear, cause only a coward lives in fear.
Turnin' nothin' into somethin' is God work, and you get nothin' without struggle and hard work
Just do as much as you can.
I've gone through too much, from beefs to divorce to my mom passing which I always expressed in my music, so there's not album that sticks out as more important than the other to me.
