A ha ha-ha-ha

A ha ha-ha-ha

Just stop takin me for a ride

(C'mon, c'mon, c'mon)

All I wanna do is take my time

(Take your time baby, take your time baby, c'mon)

Just stop takin me for a ride

(A ha ha-ha-ha, A ha ha-ha-ha)

All I wanna do is take my time...

I'mma stand up for art express, do mic test rehearsals

Eight years of man livin', ain't no edits or commercials

Flick the God like mummy, but my own want a debit

Tossin facts and how they axis don't, spin on a limit

Ain't no need to dwell, to health I'm fakin your jax

Ride niggas get to sittin' to rear, so play the Parks of Rosa

Suppose I have my whole life on it

Funny how those you love love the evil they do

I brew the medicine to heal, a bit of verbals we had

But your ideas of heal, is left the surface of it scabbed

Navigations nearly took me on some cruise type expense

Dispensing me some shitty canal, I took the juice

Because I'm used to one-ways, detours and destinations

Of ways in life, I pretends the knife

Stuck in my spine'll be a symbol, how jack can be nimble

But it's time to make that foggy vision crystal

We gots to get the crystal right?

Just stop takin me for a ride

All I wanna do is take my time

Just stop takin me for a ride

All I wanna do is take my time (take my time)

Well I don't wanna go that far

To sell my soul, I ain't gonna go that far

I'm takin minds and hearts beyond the shining star

Raw dick, honey I don't wanna go that far

So listen why you risking your mentality against mine?

Sick of leading love

Sick of leading love, leaving love loudfaced

In the vehicle of mine

Them wanna do awards, be nine ninety-nine, watch em

Profile the true fall out for so-called friends

Like mercury and water, we just don't blend

I end the game technically, you wanna stop me

True gems show affection like Jody Watley, so...

Just stop takin me for a ride

All I wanna do is take my time

Just stop takin me for a ride

All I wanna do is take my

Take my, take my time

Take my

Take my, take my time

Take my (but I don't wanna go that far)

I recall kissing on my lady, talking 'bout making babies

Now we made the baby, but cannot connect as legal spouses

Now me and my daughter reside in different houses

What louses up the structure, is leaving things up to

The child lesser, than a child runnin wild from mild pressure

Mega (mega) nega (nega)tive

To live a master plan when that plan has no master

You stare at false tongues, leadin the youngin to disaster

Postures of this world is seen as mad crooked

Want your manhood, but man, your dad took it

We used to swallow 40s and a whole lot of pride

Nice mc's be frontin on some whole other vibe

Just because them albums are sealed, doesn't mean

Them lyrics are untampered with, let's kill the myth

That as MC's we know it all, we all children still

No tricks for ninety-six, it's due time we build man

Just stop takin me for a ride...

(Yes, stop gassin me, stop gassin me)

All I wanna do is take my time...

(All we want to deal, is reality)

Just stop takin me for a ride...

(Stop gassin me, stop gassin me)

Cause all I wanna do is take my time...

(Take my time, take my time, c'mon)

I been on the streets for about- a little over two years (right)

Uh occasionally I mean I've had uh ya know high- some nice moments

Ya know, where I thought I might get somewhere (right)

But then something else, something other occurs

And I get sidetracked (right)

And then some days it's just, it's just like uh

You can go two- I can go two three days, at a time

Before I start thinking again optimistically or whatever

Because things just happen

I don't- I don't make any money uh panhandling

Or something like that, or hardly any money

I don't get a, ya know, a whole lot of good food to eat

For a couple days or something like that

Or anything even halfway decent

I mean it's not so much uh people hitting on ya or something like that

Cause there hasn't been a whole lot of that, but

It's just cause more depressing and depressing as you go on (right)

And you ss- I even start thinking uh-

Not a hallucination actually, not a visual or an auditory

But it's just sorta like mental-mentally depressing

Like I'm in a dark fantasy

Where I even starting thinking about that I want to do this to myself

And it, ya know, just just really bad depression, ya know somedays

Stakes Is High
