[Adlibs: Tha God Fahim] Yeah YEAH Ugh Check it out [Verse 1: Tha God Fahim] It's looking ugly in these streets I put my heart up in these beats We getting money so we eat Won't let no dummies come and leach off us You better offer up, or they gonna toss it up And if we fall best believe we get back up, bet it up I ain't into luck, I'm on so blessed And my people got my back, we keep it so so def And when things go left, we still keep it close-knit Whatchu want you go get, so keep the faith and don't sit [Bridge: Tha God Fahim] 'Cause nothing coming to you if you don't work hard Part of tribulations is just enduring the scars 'Cause nothing coming to you if you don't work hard Part of tribulations is just enduring the scars [Verse 2: Tha God Fahim] I make something out of nothing, turn bitter to sweet I wet my beak in a pool of cash, woke up from sleep Walked the terrain, the hardship to get where I'm going I'm on the path to success, and continuously growing Anything counterproductive is a means to destruction And being too greedy you can end up with nothing Love, peace and happiness, justice, freedom, equality Food, clothing, shelter, warriors terminology How I see things, what you believe is your perspective Cop me some rings, and championships I'm affective Coming out clean, I say a prayer for the fallen Who knows what life holds, so every chance I'm going all-in Only one life, don't waste the challenge and face it Enhance my complexity, evolve from the basic A young man struggling trying yo survive Living in the devilish world full of lies I came a long way from the path of demise Started to apply the ways of the wise Don't let it get your mind, I'm talking devils A rhyme rebel, I'm putting pedal to the metal I gain clarity when seeking understanding No wisdom abandoned, can't take any knowledge for granted Nothing is handed, won't let 'em, put me in panic Knowing that there's static, my mental state is automatic Turn the knob on the volume, I'm staying on my Deen For the mic, they all know I'm a fiend Speak the language of a king, while I spread my wings And spread love to the whole entire team

[Adlibs: Tha God Fahim] Ugh Check it Ugh [Bridge 1: Tha God Fahim] Everybody want the fruits, but nobody wanna work Everybody want the truth, but nobody wanna search Everybody wants the love, but nobody want the hurt Everybody want the better without going through the worse [Verse 1: Tha God Fahim] They only seen the shine, no one ever sees the darkness Not knowing how much time that you put into the hardship Observers thinking easy, not knowing the weight you carry And how hands can get greasy, it's a dirty game we marry Reflect on all my imperfections, sharpen up my strengths I won't let it waste away, got confidence in my gift I put my thoughts to work, and I'm constantly at a shift While they fall behind in my rearview watching 'em drift [Bridge 2: Tha God Fahim] While they fall behind in my rearview watching 'em drift While they fall behind in my rearview watching 'em drift [Chorus: Tha God Fahim] Everybody want the fruits, but nobody wanna work Everybody want the truth, but nobody wanna search Everybody want the love, but nobody want the hurt Everybody want the better, without going through the worse Everybody want the better, without going through the worse Everybody want the better, without going through the worse [Verse 2: Tha God Fahim] If you don't work hard, then how you gonna gain dough Stay dressed in fly spreads, fresh like I'm Sun-Lo I step up in the booth and I run show And burn mics to ash off one go The sunglow, I'm built for this, surviving wicked times in this wilderness Amongst the filthiest, with much that surrounds is filthiness Came out the dirt clean, write to exert steam Failures the worst thing, it hurts like the worst sting

[Verse 1: Tha God Fahim] I write high art Always been a try-hard If I don't get it right the first time, imma work on it Took a swisher, threw some purp on it Then grabbed the mic, and put a curse on it Let 'em get the worst of it Hate it or love, made it above it You see the pain in my eyes just from making it struggling Don't label me to put me in a box, broke all the locks Enabled me to make it in this spot, who wanna watch How many brothers fell victim, it's crazy I can feel your pain at times, living is shady While we out hustlin' hoping and totin' hazy To build a foundation for the babies I put it all on the papers line You wanna ball gotta make it mine It's mandatory to put in the time Missions with reasons gotta get completed The obsolete deleted, when you at your best, it's hard to beat it Never retreat it, if you believe it then achieve it, I constantly need it My firepower keeps me heated My firepower keeps me heated [Outro: Tha God Fahim] I make it, then we all make I'm tryna make, I'm not trying to fake it Money, I'm tryna chase it I'm ill, you mad basic Respect the technique Don't reach, it's mad sacred I make it, then we all make I'm tryna make, I'm not trying to fake it Money, I'm tryna chase it I'm ill, you mad basic Respect the technique Don't reach, it's mad sacred

[Verse 1: Tha God Fahim] This a world full of pandemics, shake the analytics So far from the natural, so you know that man did it I ride with my windows tinted, cruising through the city I maximize my output, they know I'm getting busy, who is he I constantly change, but stay the same Long as the loss is less than the gain, forget the fame 'Till I make it on the other side, many momma's cried Cause their children died in the street Uncle Same be a leach with his hand out Was all good on resources 'till they ran out, now how it pan out You never know who watching, some relationships be toxic I cut 'em off, they counterweight to the profit While I grow my own pockets They spread the poison with the nonsense The real salute me when I show 'em all my rhyme gift Separation from the evils of the bondage, now what's the conflict Just wanna maintain and sustain, With longevity remain sane They know my pedigree, I came gamed and prepared No tricking me out position 'cause I'm well aware I seen it coming before it came, I take precautions Stay replenished, they be praying I take them losses They be praying that I take them losses I'm staying focused, no distractions coming in my office Leave the demeanor, get the job done Count up the money like MJ, no way to stop 'em I see any kicks I want, won't hesitate to cop 'em Push the all black whip like Bruce Wayne in Gotham I got the title like, heavyweight boxing Hustle like an oxen, my pen produce toxins I'm the center of attention, gotta watch it, they flopping While I'm getting more better options History rewards its research, ain't no stopping So I had to revisit the words of the doctrine Suffering is means to a revolution they tryna find solutions, its time for better change If things ain't working as is, gotta rearrange I wanna live good, it ain't enough to just maintain Keep your nose out my business, it ain't your concern If I was down in a fire, you would just watch me burn Until then, just wait your turn, every dog has its day I'm thinking about tomorrow, but I'm living for today Many things at stake, I can stand the pressure I use my mind to manifest and take certain measures If you don't practice what you preach, I'm good on all your lectures Many things is made trash can never be treasure If you don't practice what you preach, I'm good on all your lectures Many things is made trash can never be treasure, be better
