time well spent Lyrics

Never gave me a chance

G-Star on my pants

Echo my chants

Respect in' the plants

Indulge in my past

Them cops movin' fast

240 my dash

How can I stay mad?

This life that I had

It wasn't so bad

I wasn't a hustler but I made my own bag

Respecting the craft

Dodgin' the draft

This life that I had

How can I stay mad

Noir in all black

East Bay my back

Crash at my pad

Wake up relapse

Water everyday like the rain get paid

Money everyday like a game arcade

And I

Still don't make enough for the rent

Spent time away from music

but it's time well spent

Said it's time well spent

In the community yeah it's time well spent

In the peninsula it's time well spent

Doin' the work yeah it's time well spent

Doin' more for people than police ever could

I never thought that I could really do something good

Doin' something good for myself and the hood

Doin' something good for myself in the hood

Wise beyond his years had to switch the gears

Open up they ears

And Manifest they fears

Bringin' in the change like a flood to a bank

Bringin' in that change like a flood to a bank

Maybe I didn't deserve it

Maybe every failure serves a purpose

Maybe it was all really worth it

Maybe it was all really worth it

Maybe it was all really

I wanted to be in them movies

Be on they TV screens

Then I learned you need to have the money to get behind the scenes

Keep a pencil in my pocket to keep from creative blockage

Stay up in the forest like a tumblr page cottage

Core I'm reliving dreams

Wearing expensive jeans

With the American seams

This the American Dream

Yeah It's phony man stop it

That's why I stay Quiet like Metal Gear Solid

Never gave me a chance

G-Star on my pants

Echo my chants

Respect in' the plants

Indulge in my past

Them cops movin' fast

240 my dash

How can I stay mad?

This life that I had

It wasn't so bad

I wasn't a hustler but I made my own bag

Respecting the craft

Dodgin' the draft

This life that I had

How can I stay mad

Noir in all black

East Bay my back

Crash at my pad

Wake up relapse

Water everyday like the rain get paid

Money everyday like a game arcade

And I

Still don't make enough for the rent

Spent time away from music

but it's time well spent

Said it's time well spent

In the community yeah it's time well spent

In the peninsula it's time well spent

In the peninsula it's time well spent

In the peninsula it's time well spent

Time well spent

Time well spent
