LONELY AT THE TOP

They say it's lonely at the top, so whatever you do
You always gotta watch motherfuckers around you
Nobody's invincible, no plan is foolproof
We all must meet our moment of truth
They say it's lonely at the top, so whatever you do
You always gotta watch motherfuckers around you
Nobody's invincible, no plan is foolproof
We all must meet our moment of truth

I’ve been having flashbacks since the days of my youth
Right next to the trap was my grandmama’s stoop
We’re in ‘93, Vernon Av’ & troop
Where we used to be, take ‘em back, back to the roots
Where anytime I leave the block, we would move in cahoots
Getting harassed by the cops, hands up, don’t shoot
They thought that we was sellin’ rocks, I couldn’t say we was not
In fact I couldn’t say a lot ‘'cause it just how I was taught
Guilty by association, that’s a thing of my past
Had to cut off some relations to ensure I would last
Nowadays, ain’t got no patience, I be moving too fast
If we ain’t on the same vibration, then I'm shaking your ass
Now every time I spin the block, niggas be lookin’ so mad
Seen my closest friends turn to opps, shit so sad
Tryin’ to pretend, but I know the snakes in the grass
Lookin’ through my lens, it’d be hard to face those facts

They say it's lonely at the top, so whatever you do
You always gotta watch motherfuckers around you
Nobody's invincible, no plan is foolproof
We all must meet our moment of truth
They say it's lonely at the top, so whatever you do
You always gotta watch motherfuckers around you
Nobody's invincible, no plan is foolproof
We all must meet our moment of truth

Can’t find nobody to relate to these problems I have
I got 150 on the dash, pray to God I won’t crash
I'm hopin’ Allah take the wheel, if I written my will
I keep my head up on a swivel when I play in the field
I'm paranoid, checkin’ my mirrors like it’s something I feel
These streets don’t play, fear, so I keep my pistol concealed
‘'Cause I'm the type to say a prayer ‘fore I catch my kill
Like, as-salamu alaykum, swear this shit get real

Shit get-
Swear this shit get real
Shit get-
Shit too real

They say it's lonely at the top, so whatever you do
You always gotta watch motherfuckers around you
Nobody's invincible, no plan is foolproof
We all must meet our moment of truth
