[00:03.82] And they say don't ever change change on me
[00:12.65]
[00:15.50] Although beautiful matrimony is a rapper balancing your women
[00:18.97] Your riches and at least half your homies
[00:21.24] You're at the top don't crack
[00:23.68] I've been doing my own thing
[00:26.79]
[00:27.33] And they said don't never change
[00:30.24] And I pray I stay the same
[00:32.53] Want everything for everybody 'round me
[00:35.33] I've been doing my own thing
[00:38.39]
[00:39.05] And we said we'd never change
[00:41.91] And I pray we stay the same
[00:44.43] Fame changin' everybody 'round me
[00:46.64] OK good business with mad friends and we said we'd never change
[00:52.92] But bad business with mad friends aha glass egg
[00:58.81]
[00:59.51] Me and you was chillin' though
[01:00.97] Now that *****t got cold like the OG with that finger roll
[01:03.66] That Spur probably cop it cause the more wallace
[01:06.59] And it's worse when they even in their fillings of your pockets
[01:10.17]
[01:11.49] Then I got my deal
[01:14.00] Started wondering if them with me are for real
[01:19.64] Mmm I figure them'll do it not us
[01:22.56] Mmm the bond was thick now just the blot is
[01:24.88] And isn't it ironic getting a name can make you anonymous
[01:27.89] My newest of hobbies collecting calls from the lock-ups
[01:30.55] Tell 'em I know he's so sick of the walls
[01:32.10] When he get home he going shopping
[01:33.69]
[01:34.22] Mmm look at the time that caught us
[01:36.74] Talked to the Times when younger and made me get my life in order
[01:39.34] Real in it for life but now look at the price
[01:42.33] But now look at that register everything in here slight
[01:45.23] Mmm cause I'm Jah doin' aight
[01:48.11] Look at how the moral of the story but don't see its advice
[01:51.48] It's right it's like life is like a glass egg
[01:54.67] Tryna maintain what come with the fame and keeping your last friends
[01:57.67] Yeah you know that balance of
[01:59.78] Cause who on your back or who got your back
[02:01.18] I promise the line is this thin really
[02:04.19] You know that balance of
[02:05.65] Cause who on your back or who got your back
[02:07.00] I promise the line is this
[02:08.26] I got this glass egg somehow on the top of this
[02:11.26] Balanced on the top of this mountain you know
[02:14.33] I don't know how I got it there exactly
[02:16.02] But I see it's there and I got to end this with the right feeling
[02:20.77] I've been doing my own thing
[02:23.76]
[02:24.32] And they said don't never change
[02:27.30] And I pray I stay the same
[02:29.64] Want everything for everybody 'round me
[02:32.43] I've been doing my own thing
[02:35.43]
[02:36.02] And we said we'd never change
[02:38.99] And I pray we stay the same
[02:41.43] Fame changin' everybody 'round me
[02:43.82] OK good business with mad friends and we say we never change
[02:50.04] Bad business with mad friends aha glass egg
[02:56.04]
[02:56.64] Who would have figured or guessed it pa
[02:58.03] Look at you there since Contra kept the code but you've got extra men
[03:00.99] Told you I would get this straight told you once I got big
[03:03.75] It's lonely at the top by the population looking in ahh
[03:07.92]
[03:08.70] Then I got my deal
[03:11.19] Started wondering if them with me are for real
[03:17.27] Sometimes the mighty let the devil in
[03:19.69] Yeah now salutations to my former friends
[03:22.17] Forming to form against me is currently your form of defense
[03:25.26]
[03:25.94] And now it hurts me to say sometimes your sandbox
[03:29.19] Equipped for dirty exchange now was it
[03:31.60] Or that bling in a hurt or sustain at curtain calls
[03:34.30] One of two that either boo or bouquets so was it
[03:37.21] Worth of your fam or worth all tha fame
[03:39.20] Exchange your personal relation*****ps for personal gains
[03:42.29]
[03:43.64] I'm telling you balance is a *****
[03:45.10] Cause when you're back who got your back
[03:46.47] I promise the line is this thin really uh
[03:49.44] I'm telling you about
[03:50.97] Cause when you're back who got your back
[03:52.45] Sometimes that line don't exist I'm out
[03:54.37] I've been doing my own thing
[03:57.52]
[03:58.09] And they said don't never change
[04:00.93] And I pray I stay the same
[04:03.28] Want everything for everybody 'round me
[04:06.05] I've been doing my own thing
[04:09.11]
[04:09.62] And we said we'd never change
[04:12.53] And I pray we stay the same
[04:15.12] Fame changin' everybody 'round me
[04:17.76] I've been doing my own thing
[04:21.44] And they said don't never change
[04:24.47] And I pray we stay the same
[04:27.28]
[04:29.40] I've been doing my own thing
[04:32.98] And we said we'd never change
