Fairweather friends will help you out from May to June,
Say your my biggest fan, why don't play my tunes?
It's kinda hard selling it, truth be told,
Its kinda hard staying relevant, life can fuck you over,
Not a moment she'll be celibate, my situation delicate,
Pray to God I got some prospects,
Give you all my concepts, what you want next?
I'm second guessing, counting every second blessing,
Never good with numbers, I was skipping every second lesson,
When my seconds lessen, and my minutes wane,
And my kids ask what had kept your spirit sane?
I'll explain, one early morning when some lyrics came
My life really changed.
My mum says, listen up when Jesus talks,
I ignore her, but I still play Jesus Walks,
Rappers tend to be short on father figures,
I relate to them more, than what my father figures,
When you've spent your thirty pieces,
Will you retreat to horizons, I see you as the farthest figure,
Disappearing like the end credits,
I know I'm hurt, plus my friends said it,
I have ambitions but their only absurd,
That you could hear my verse and get to know me with words.
