too many distractions lyrics

[Intro]
So many times these n*ggas put a knife inside my back
(Let the beat ride out, Ju)
Yeah, yeah

[Verse]
So many times these n*ggas put a knife inside my back, huh
Pop's was my only role model, he sold so crack, huh
Still taught me right from wrong
I'm always smilin' through the pain, I put it in my songs
Y'all know how many times I went broke, but I ain't sure
Never hated on nobody, I'm just waitin' on my moment
Know that you f*cked with me, that's why I'm watchin' what I'm doin'
Life bigger than the hood, I swear to God, the world is yours
If you put your mind to it, huh
These n*ggas praisin' fake sh*t, act like they blind to it
I got CDs around my neck, look like you're cryin' to me
And when n*ggas be on weird sh*t, that just be signs to me
I gotta move around, huh
If you can't say it to my face, then don't say that sh*t at all
I can't fake it for a second, that sh*t make my skin crawl
Tryna see the bigger picture, tryna take the limbs off
n*gga, how's that your dog? You won't even spin for him, you won't even win for him
Tell my n*ggas if it's me, man, just go and live for me
You gotta live it up, gotta live it up, I've seen a lot of darkness in my life
I tell younger ones who sign up, this sh*t come with a price
You don't wanna leave your mama cryin' tears through the night
Even though I'm scared of heights, I'm still catchin' every flight
I'm a humble beast, I know n*ggas older than me lookin' up to me, huh, yeah, huh
They think I got it figured out, but I'm still learnin' just like everybody else
Pride too big to ask for help, I'd rather do this sh*t myself
Don't even be lookin' for results, don't give a damn 'bout how you felt
I ain't never once complained, it's just a hand that I was dealt with
She's takin' kids from they mom, that sh*t so selfish
Lil' girls growin' up so fast, they cannot help it
Youngin' thirteen with a strap, you cannot help him, huh
All he know is front and center just like Kelsey
So many times these n*ggas put a knife inside my back, huh
Pops was my only role model, he sold crack
I put my pain in every song, this more than a rap, huh
Every day I'm stayin' focused, keepin' sh*t on track
So many temptations, so many distractions
Lock myself inside the studio, I'm makin' classes
n*ggas love to claim they so real, they be plastic
I still got some shoebox money in my mattress, yeah
