Lose You

I don't care what society thinks

They're nothing anyway

They're no better than me

Out there, you just have to fit into a pattern that somebody's already made up for you

Life we live, yeah

Set your own patterns, your own ideals

You have to handle the whole job yourselves

Yeah

No snow tires

The rain slips slide like Trick Daddy and Trina

Oli North pullin' like ten million a season

Queen Street visions that nobody believed in

If we not on the charts, my XO **** eatin'

Fifty-two consecutive weekends, shout out to Weeknd

The city gets stronger when everybody is speakin'

Not when everybody out here beefin'

We got it now, we just gotta keep it

America's most wanted, man, I'm still on the run

All these number ones and we still not the ones

No hard feelings, but I'll still get you spun

Went and got diplomas and we still goin' dumb

Please never label **** who laid down for a living, my competition

It's beyond offensive, I'm in it for the glory, not the honor mention

Not tryna be fourth and inches, I'm tryna go the distance

Yeah, distance, I'm on a different mission

This the remix to Ignition, hot and fresh out the kitchen

How you forget to fill up with gas on the road to riches?

Too overly ambitious, too late to fix it

Too late for condolences when it's over with

I need to start sayin' shit when I notice it

Be open with people I need some closure with

Be honest with myself and take ownership

Opinions started to burn when tables started to turn

I really used to feel like they loved a **** at first, exciting times

Revitalized, trust this little light of mine is gonna shine positively

I'm just takin' what God'll give me

Grateful like Jerry, Bob, and Mickey

Better attitude, we'll see where it gets me

I know catchin' flies with honey is still sticky

I wrote a book on world-class finesses and tasteful gestures and makin' efforts

And never placin' second

Or even better, knowin' you first but then takin' second

Inspirin' and never takin' credit

I know I deserve more, I just never said it

Two middle fingers as I make a exit, yeah

Did I lose you?

Did I? Did I?

Did I lose you?

Did I? Did I?

Did I lose you?

Winning is problematic

People like you more when you workin' towards somethin', not when you have it

Way less support from my peers in recent years as I get established

Unforgivin' times but fuck it, I manage

Why's my struggle different than others?

Only child is takin' care of his mother as health worsens and bills double

That's not respectable

All of a sudden I don't get a pat on the back for the come up

What do you see when you see me?

When did all the things I mean from the bottom of my heart start to lose meaning?

Maybe I share it with too many people

Back then it used to just feel like our secret

Back when I would write and not think about how they receive it

I be tryna manifest the things I needed

And look now, I mean it's hard to believe it, even for me

But you're mindful of it all when your mind full of it all

How'd it go from not wantin' me at all to wantin' to see me lose it all?

Things get dark but my aura just starts glowin', I'm overcome with emotions

Ones I can't access when I'm stone sober

Jealous once still envy and **** turn king cobra

I can only speak what I know of

Man, we wrote the book on calculated thinkin' and icy Heineken drinkin'

And rival neighborhoods linkin'

And puttin' your trust in someone with the risk of financially sinkin'

All you did was write the book on garbage-ass Rollies

Ego strokin', picture postin'

Claimin' that you do it for motivational purposes only but you just had to show me

See, I know 'cause I study you closely

I know when someone lyin'

I notice people standin' for nothin' and gettin' tired

I know what we're both thinkin' even when you quiet

Sometimes, I gotta just make sure that I didn't lose you

Did I? Did I?

Did I lose you?

Did I? Did I?

Did I lose you?
