Barsnetti - Turf Wars 2 Lyrics

I've got a lotta things on my mind that I wanna dissect
But I don't know if I should get the knife yet
'Cause if I cut it open it'll be a mess
And I can't put back together the rest
I've got a lotta things that I wanna get off my chest
But it's keeping me warm like a nice blue vest
And we'll pay a lot of money for the brand of the vest
Instead of dealing with the stress
Mmhm
Man I've gotta be okay with getting like a million "no"'s before I get one "yes"
How many times do I gotta take up the knife and die to myself
Before my thoughts DIEgress
How many friends are gonna lie that they're "never gonna leave"
To decide that I'll leave 'em on "read"
How many time do I gotta put that in a rap song
For them to come back and say it again
(MMM)
I could only respect people that'll be the same way with you
Wether or not they think that you "big" or not
'Cause if it all fails and you fall down to the bottom
They're gonna still think you better than the ones at the top
I've got 4 friends in mind who I think care about my mind
Who are not in my family line
And the only reason why they're still around
Is because we're on the same page every single time
(Okay...)

This is probably a good Segway into talking about being patient
And letting God handle things in his own time
Even though there's nothing really wrong with acknowledging it...
Man let's talk all about it

I've gotta problem with the people that'll never give you credit
For the work you was doing for them
How many times do you spend a lot of time on a project
For somebody to never even tag you on the 'gram
UH HUH
And I don't even care about all the attention that you gettin'
So don't ever call me "needy" if you gettin' offended
But it's the only way that I could get a little bit of business
To pay the bills so I don't go starvin' again

The music industry isn't all that it seems
Especially in the "Christian scene"
I've got an artist that abused me for all of my work
And another one that didn't even pay for the thing...
Don't ever ask me to make a "big Piece" for you
When you need it done in a couple of days or somethin'
You don't respect the art
And God made a whole planet in six days when he could've made it in ONE

If you walking' up to me you better know how to run
'Cause I've got a strap on me
And it's loaded with love
If we ever had a problem with trust
And then you see me come right back
You can thank the one up above
It's a new season
And I am not the same person that I was
But I'm still covered up by the blood
I know it's been a lot of stuff inside of my mind
Now I need to figure out how I could be closin' it up
Aye...
