Front of the class, learning to get my dough right
Bussin' my ass but things never seem to go right
I need to hold tight
And brighten up hairy situations that be turnin' darker like lowlights
Should I try to put more focus on inspiration?
Would I get more notice if I start misbehaving?
I can't get impatient
Searching for virtues from bullshit that hurt you
Remember it's the mission statement
How can you look up staring at what's beneath you
How can you trust holding to what deceives you
Positivity is like winnin' the lotto
Now, what's the motto
You gotta let it go
Let it go
What can happen, you never know
Never know
Let em hate, winning is how you let em know
Let em know
Be like water, gotta let it flow
Let it flow
Now, I been through shit, that's life though
In the ocean with no lifeboat
I was Sinbad with thin skin
That was back then like I'm Mike Jones
Now I plan attack, gettin' fat stacks
No crack rock in a backpack
I'm a pack rat in a hazmat
Master Splinter where the cash at
Purple ooze, now we hurtin dudes
Michelangelo and Leonardo
Chill Rafael, Donatello tell em
Time is ticking and that we are model
Citizens with the innocence
Never really into insolence
Never bein' the carcinogen
Gotta be acetaminophen
I got problems with myself, battling with image
Interpersonal struggle like athletes having a scrimmage
Black heart but I wanna put thought in it
Caught between being a fraud and authentic
How can you look up staring at what's beneath you
How can you trust holding to what deceives you
Positivity is like winnin' the lotto
Now, what's the motto
You gotta let it go
Let it go
What can happen, you never know
Never know
Let em hate, winning is how you let em know
Let em know
Be like water, let it flow
Let it flow
