Smoky Mirrors Lyrics

A couple mandatory years spent to focus on self

Turned my girl to my wifey now let's focus on wealth

You know how life be throwing fastballs and curves

Fools be striking out I gotta hit em with the swerve

It's like a fight now

Seeing lefts and rights now

Got a couple blocks in but they knocked me right down

I'm getting back up smacked up now I'm bout to act up

That young and stupid me shit is really starting to catch up

Clouding my mainframe

Out my brain mayne

Followed my weeks straight high working on A-frames

I can't claim to be the main thang bangin' but yo

I find time baby yeah I'm maintaining

My nine-to-five secure the bag but yo that shit's straining

Gon put me in a house though yo I ain't complaining

At times it's hard to accept or even entertain the fact that I chose a clear path instead of entertaining

Smoke in the mirrors is blocking appearance

Perseverance to intermittent clearance

Hold ya dearest

I'm betting what ya fearing

Is life don't get no easier

I don't know what ya hearing

Life's a marathon

Naw

It ain't a sprint

Coming up mint condition ending up wishing I could carry on

But shit I've got expenses

Out here stepping over dollars trying to make senses

It's just I can't be seeing hearing or speaking no evil

I don't stunt I just do my own

That's Evel Kinevel

You know the sequel's on the way

That shit be taking practice

Hitting so many goals I'm doing hat-tricks

On the daily

Start it out with some coffee and Bailey's

Can't be waiting my whole life for someone to save me

Life's full of temptation and cravings

But it's crazy how some discipline can stack up your savings

Word

Often times I'm getting caught up in thoughts

I want promotion but I got a problem paying for bots

Yo

I might drink a couple but ain't taking no shots

I'm just looking for some organic ways to build up these props

But again

Smoke in the mirrors is blocking appearance

Perseverance to intermittent clearance

Hold ya dearest

I'm betting what ya fearing

Is life don't get no easier

I don't know what ya hearing
