Lemons Lyrics

Yeah yeah

Could've been bitter 'bout it all

Chose a different route

Steady chasing clout

They just end up in a roundabout

Steady chasing dreams

Might end up on that tv screen

Get 'em posters up like Yao Ming

Mean

But ain't nobody blocking me

I walk the path well so I ought to lead

I seen both sides like isosceles

I prefer to take the one in between

They say I gotta choose between my sanity and gaining fame

What's more insane than contradicting ways?

Waking up every day

Grinding for a check

Then go to sleep and do it all again

Illusions that we all maintain

This rap shit is the fucking same

On average even worse

At least the 9-5 gon' get you paid

Y'all just take advantage of the disadvantaged every day

Y'all just selling dreams to the hopeless just abusing faith

Welcome to the cold embrace

Still gon' rock a hoodie when the odds below 1

They said making it was hard like not making it is fun

We ain't got an option we gon' hustle for the crumbs

Until we clutchin' bread we can barely hold in thumbs

Build it up starting from the bottom

Have a strong foundation so we never fall like autumn

Place the value in intangibles and those who care for me

I'm probably doing good if you never hear from me

Faced with dilemma and I gotta choose

Fuck the rules

Here's a clue

I can win-win what's a lose-lose, situation?

Switched my outlook–like the radio station

99 percent chance I come up on these chances taken

'Cuz this life shit is for the taking

And this lifestyle is what you make it

I heard they turn lemons into lemonade

So I buy 'em all–leave the store vacant
