What You Don't See Lyrics

Underneath us all

Is a lifelong call

Came from no-thin-ing

To have e-very-thing

You see the big car that I ride

You don't see, to get there it took drive

You don't see, all them tears that I cried

Paint drippin wet, easy ride to get the 'vet, shit

You just see a brilliant mind

Think it's easy to find all the words that'll rhyme

You ain't saw all the time that I grind

Loggin' long hours, 'n givin up the pine

Lookin' for the set path but I'm blind

Them runway lights wasn't lined

Couldn't lift off but I was tryin

If I said I didn't crash I'd be lyin

Shootin' for the stars tryin' to reach Orion

Chartin' for them stars like a Mayan

You see all the money and the cash

You don't see, when I was down to my last

You think I'm loaded, yeah, always stayin' strapped

You don't see when I was strapped for the cash

Contemplate turn the heat on myself 'n let it blast

I was promised to finish first

That bubble burst, how'd I end up last

Robbin' on that sweet life

Jolly Ranchers, Jolly Rogers

Shit it wasn't all jolly with that bitter white flag on the mast

Felt like givin up

But I ain't given out

Not now, not later, not ever

I'm on the elevator

Getting high from the haters

You gon' pay me my respect

Is it now or is it later

Candy Bars, sellin' out the box

Now straight pimpin', sellin out the box

Duffel bag boy, duffel boy

Get the bag boy, get the bag boy

You a bad boy, you a bad boy

Go 'n get the Juice, 'n that's love

Rest in peace youngblood

But there's other ways off the street

You can say, that ya boy's got it made

You can say, it's been straight lemonade

You can say, it's all sunshine no shade

You can say, all the roads they were paved

But I know, it'was dirt roads in the day

'N I know, some days it was gray

'N I'll always remember, the hand I was gave

'N I'm takin them lemons to the grave

I had to pay to get paid

Had to make it wasn't made

Had to make it wasn't made

What'cha say, what'cha say, ayy

I had to pay to get paid

Had to make it wasn't made

Had to make it wasn't made

All day

You see the big house on the hill

You don't see that little shack that I grew up in the 'ville

Take 'em back, take 'em back

Yeah back before stacks, before we rolled 'Lacs

Before Rolex, before da big mac

We were eatin' big macs, we were smokin' those stacks

Characters the only thing we didn't lack

Take 'em back, take em' back

Ascension started as a stairstep crack

In a Riverdale trap

Yeah back before these handsome stacks

Things were kinda ugly

I mean that hoods tryin' to hug me

Fizzy drinks, 'n that shit wasn't bubby

Just sayin

It wan't always lovely

Just sayin

it wan't always sunny

Just sayin

We didn't always have this money
