No Big Deal

When I first met Sarkodie, he wouldn't shake my hand

Cool, I'm not too proud to say I'm still a fan

But I held a grudge and told myself to wait till I'm the man

I'll never give that man a verse and, boy, did I stick to my plan

Two requests over the years and I declined them both

I just made up some dumb excuse like I'm in album mode

But looking back on that today, I was in coward mode

And, besides, those two songs are either out or old

See, it's the best way I know how to get shit off my chest

I was just a disappointed fan, it's nothing more or less

But now I'm over that shit and he's got all my respect

If he asked me for a verse again, it would be my hardest one yet

Then I was out in Accra

Media run for my album is turning into a mess

If you tuned in, you could guess

They asked me if I know Shatta, they said he's one of the best

My honest response ended up being twisted up by the press

He understood that, so there's really nothing there to address

But I thought I'd speak on it to put it to rest

And show that man some respect

Got something else I need to speak on next

I think it's time I take this back to the nest

There's been a couple requests

You know tried to squash that shit with A-Reece

Hard as it was to put my pride aside, I tried to make peace

It wasn't even no beef, that shit was petty spaghetti

Two weeks later, I'm disrespected and regret it already

Couldn't even get on my Live without people bringing him up again

I end up saying fuck him then

Something that was nothing might really turn into something then

I don't even know why we beefing, dawg, but it's up again

I'm down to go either way at this point, I'll leave it up to him

But I fuck with 25, and I fuck with Flvme

And a lot of other dope artists that fuck with him

But I'll be dumb as fuck to ever put my trust in them

And for my two **** I said I'd ride with until our hearses close

I won't rap about you, it's too personal

Just know you **** hurt me though

And you already said some words and sadly there's no reversing those

Just getting shit off my chest, you know

And I can promise you, I mean no malice to anybody I spoke on

None

Like I said, I'm just getting shit off my chest

You're more than welcome to take it however you want to take it

I don't think that's up to me

It never has been

So...

And these are just a few of the many, many things I need to get off my chest and

Speak on and just let go

And I guess that's why I make albums

Anyway...

Rest in peace to my little brother Yoshi

We love you, kid

And we miss you

I am so grateful for every second I got to spend with you, man

Changed the way I view life

And a lot of people say shit like that just because someone's gone

I'm glad I got to tell you this to your face while you were here

One of the best people I have ever met

I swear down
