Текст песни Protecting My Energy - Jackboy

I feel like niggas ain't as real as me
So I'm protectin my energy
I've been talked down by family
So nowadays we don't speak like we enemies
Look in my eyes say I've been crossed before
They hurt him bad so bad he could feel it in his soul
Dripped in the latest I guess that's the reason these niggas hated
Ain't never throw no shade
I grind hard and patiently waited
I was gamblin with my life but I promise
I've never been to Vegas
In the hood shootin dice clutchin on a dirty .380
I'm good anywhere
I earned my stripes just like a zebra
Cold world I'm in the projects huggin on my heater
It took for me to get a million for her to see I ain't regular
I moved on I don't need you bitch don't call my cellular
Big gun in my Moncler I'm not a wrestler
Steppin on niggas check the score
I'm way ahead of ya
Got crossed by a couple niggas I ain't expect hate it
We had plans to ball together but instead the love faded
I feel like niggas ain't as real as me
So I'm protectin my energy
I've been talked down by family
So nowadays we don't speak like we enemies
Look in my eyes say I've been crossed before
They hurt him bad so bad he could feel it in his soul
I was raised by the streets
It's hard to adapt to the fame
Young nigga with a old soul look in my eyes you see pain
All these scars on my body covered it with diamond chains
Hunnid K in cash I can act an ass with Johnny Dang
You know I love to spazz I'm thumbin through the racks
I do my thing
Livin life I still can't crash I'm in my own lane
I came from the bottom it's only right they let me touch the top
And how I'm savin up this bread
You woulda thought it's bout to rot
They gave my nigga twenty-five he don't never watch the clock
Rather beat on people's kids then do his time in the box
He forgot how to feel but he know my love real
And he know I'll spend my last just to see him win an appeal
I feel like niggas ain't as real as me
So I'm protectin my energy
I've been talked down by family
So nowadays we don't speak like we enemies
Look in my eyes say I've been crossed before
They hurt him bad so bad he could feel it in his soul
