Lyrics Shine - T Clipse

Niggas want a deal I rather shine independent, yeah
I rather shine independent
And they wanna be up top but don't know how when they get it (They don't know)
Don't know how when they get it
So I'm chillin I'm just doing what I'm 'posed to (Aye)
I can't let em get too close to (Me)
Make em come correct when they approach you
Can't even trust my own so I'm working like I'm Goku

And these days I'm focused on the betterment
Rookie in the game but my mental like a veteran
It's usually the demons that be acting like they heaven sent
And you can keep the streets yo I'm aiming for the settlements
I said you can keep the streets I'm trynna settle miss
These niggas be some goofies and that's something that I never been (Nah)
Spitting this with elegance, turn it up and tell a friend,
Might just have to beat box 'cause this shit my element
Was talking to my nigga that's my brother like my mother's son
I got him if he needs it like the sister of my brother's son
It would be a shame if they try and take in one of us
I tell em try another day or better yet another month
Playing like I'm down 5 but I'm a hunnid up
I'm still in the game but they thinking that I hung it up
I'm playing like I'm down 5 but I'm a hunnid up
They still in the game, nah I'm lying they can't fuck wit us
Aye

Niggas want a deal I rather shine independent, yeah
I rather shine independent
And they wanna be up top but don't know how when they get it (They don't know)
Don't know how when they get it
So I'm chillin I'm just doing what I'm 'posed to (Aye)
I can't let em get too close to (Me)
Make em come correct when they approach you
Can't even trust my own so I'm working like I'm

I can't even trust my own though
New words from a old soul
Just know everything 'bout me hmm
Just know everything 'bout me homegrown

Son
