Lead The Way

[00:00.84] All of these kids, they be looking up to me, I'm the man now
[00:03.64] And grown men, they be coming up to me with they hands out
[00:07.09] I got relatives reaching out to me like we fam now
[00:10.40] I ain't got nothing, so I guess I'ma concentrate on these babies now
[00:12.10] I got so many people that's betting against me
[00:13.86] How you gon' feel I pull up in a Bentley
[00:14.97] Could've, I wanted to, homie, don't tempt me
[00:16.74] How many boxes to grow when I sit me
[00:18.55] Pockets full, but I grind like they empty
[00:20.14] I know they hate me, but that don't affect me
[00:21.63] I got no reason to play like I'm friendly
[00:23.08] Girl, you don't know me, don't call me Kenny
[00:24.69] I don't really do this shit
[00:25.91] Rent the properties, landlord, I'm too legit
[00:27.54] My music lit, it hit people's heart
[00:29.91] Give them strength, lead them through the dark
[00:31.08] Came a long way from going all day
[00:32.57] Not eating, hungry, sleeping in the car
[00:34.28] I got a woman out there that mean everything to me
[00:36.28] And people done pulled us apart
[00:37.53] She know what's wrong, but what can I do
[00:39.21] When story goes on, the chatter is through
[00:40.23] When I find her again, I haven't a clue
[00:42.10] Look in the mirror, what's happened to you
[00:43.82] I used to run around with a hundred pounds
[00:45.83] I came back from Southern California
[00:47.34] I got homeboys, ain't coming back for so long
[00:49.34] I ain't trying to join them
[00:50.32] Grown man shit, I'm talking about goals and plans shit
[00:52.67] I wanna not do what it take me to get it
[00:54.59] Don't be with that open hand shit
[00:55.96] Cause I get so many racks these days
[00:58.30] This shit is unreal, but I keep working
[00:59.97] My next move could be my best move
[01:01.96] And it's a done deal, burn it
[01:02.99] Yeah, all of these kids
[01:04.75] They be looking up to me, I'm the man now
[01:07.22] And grown men, they be coming up to me
[01:09.23] With they hands out
[01:09.99] I got relatives reaching out to me
[01:11.87] Like we fam now
[01:13.54] I ain't got nothing else
[01:14.27] So I guess I'ma concentrate on these bands now
[01:15.95] What if I die and I leave today
[01:18.25] Then what would they say
[01:19.21] Am I a role model still in the way
[01:20.77] Then what would it lead the way
[01:22.22] But how and when can I see the way
[01:23.87] And I don't feel free today
[01:25.83] Tell me how the hell can I be the change
[01:27.28] You can relate, cause times was hard
[01:29.21] It ain't no way to hide the scars
[01:30.54] Get it today and defy the odds
[01:32.33] No one can promise you life tomorrow
[01:33.91] I'ma be damned if I ever fold a show in my hand
[01:35.87] All of these lows was not in the plan
[01:37.77] All of my homies, I got them like fam
[01:39.66] A lot of these hoes be acting like fans
[01:41.31] My entire life has been a moment of truth
[01:44.08] When it's fight or flight, you either sink or swim
[01:46.03] You gon' know what to do
[01:46.99] Funeral homes and courtrooms
[01:48.53] My only reason for owning this suit
[01:50.22] They knew I'm one of the realest
[01:51.37] Cause I don't just tell them, I show them the proof
[01:52.99] I don't want nothing for free
[01:54.90] I don't got no problem earning my keep
[01:56.42] I just be chilling and minding my business
[01:57.92] And I don't like people disturbing my peace
[01:59.33] Been tipping the bottle and stirring my speech
[02:01.30] A little too much, a little too often
[02:02.69] I'm the one to follow when you role model
[02:04.37] More than if you do, better proceed with caution
[02:05.96] Yeah, all of these kids, they be looking up to me

[02:21.19] Then what would they say
[02:22.23] Am I a role model still
[02:23.36] Either way
[02:26.35] Then what would it lead the way
