Good Die Young

[Verse 1]

They tell me money isn't everything...and I agree
It ain't the money, it's your moves. It ain't your pay, it's what you do
Threw a few G's in the wind, it's really for the crew
A few months later, my niggas, just look at how we grew
4 quarters locked in, corner pocket
Hustle without the corner or jums up in the pocket
Intelligence. Selling the world concepts
Merchandise, concerts. It's all part of the process
I used to dream out loud when I was coming up
Ideas shitted on. "Wow, am I dumb or what?"
Cause people never see your ambition
And if you let 'em, they're gonna trade their stupidity for your vision
Swore I was different, opposite my opposition
Middle fingers and tunnel vision
Wasn't invited to the Cool Table, so I created 1
I'm doing fine over here son

[Hook]

They say the good die young, I guess these grimy niggas live a long time/
Sit in fancy whips, sip champagne and shine/
Keep your eyes on yours, I'll keep my eyes on mine
(2x)

[Verse 2]

I've been played a few times in my lifetime
In real life, plus music cause I write rhymes
Call it "trust issues"
So you should take it personal if I don't come around cause I don't fuck with you
Or call your celly up to get drunk with you
Not that I wish harm on you, but I'm done with you
All I ever ask is people keep it as real with me
As I keep it with them, and that's a fucking buck with you
If you can call me on a lie that I told you in the past 2 years
Right now, I'll give you 2 Grand
In all cash, tell you hold out your 2 hands
Then, when you don't see a dollar, you'll know who the truth is
I'll hand you the rope, and let you hang yourself
Never speak, never play you, I'ma let you play yourself
So, you play your part, or you can play the bench
Either way, I play to win. I've got to pay the rent

[Hook]
