Lyrics Intrusive Thoughts - Ka-Flame

I Know they wanna see me fail, but I'm headed up these stairs
They say this road to riches, like a highway to hell
Only time will tell, will I live and prevail
Know some niggas getting rich, from them bricks that they sale
I'm rapping, and they trapping, but they stacking up that paper
Even though times are hard, I ain't asking for no favors
One day I will be able, to finally say I'm free
Wanna earn it on my own, just to say that's all me
So all week, I'm writing in my lab, making beats
While they're in the club, out here chasing round them freaks
I keep it G, I'm too focused on the mission
Released another album, I'm just hoping that they listen
Notice yo position, pay attention, if it's set aside
When it come to music, this is something I can't jeopardize
Look in my eyes, can you really see the agony?
So when I holla fuck it all, can yall be mad at me?

They say I'm wrong, just for speaking my mind
I'm just trying to be strong, though my people are dying
Trying to reach them through my songs, though they sleep on my rhymes
No matter what, I gotta keep on my grind
They say I'm wrong, just for speaking my mind
I'm just trying to be strong, though my people are dying
Trying to reach them through my songs, though they sleep on my rhymes
No matter what

I know I gotta keep it coming, even though I am exhausted
Twenty six years, never feel, like I lost it
Even though I'm working, I was still, on some boss shit
3:30 in the morning, that's when them thoughts hit
Making me nauseous, just knowing that my chances
Are really looking slim, but look at them, they advancing
Rapping bout that bullshit, lacking in skills
And here I am, broke as fuck, for actually keeping it real
But still, my integrity won't let me play that role
Making songs about dope, clothes, bitches, and ho's
Man shit be getting old, they slacking on the list
If you skimming through my lyrics, I'm gone bring ya back to this
Notice yo position, pay attention, if it's set aside
When it comes to music, this is something I can't jeopardize
Look in my eyes, can you really see the agony?
So when I holla fuck it all, don't yall be mad at me?

They say I'm wrong, just for speaking my mind
I'm just trying to be strong, though my people are dying
Trying to reach them through my songs, though they sleep on my rhymes
No matter what, I gotta keep on my grind
They say I'm wrong, just for speaking my mind
I'm just trying to be strong, though my people are dying
Trying to reach them through my songs, though they sleep on my rhymes
No matter what, I gotta keep on my grind nigga
