A ha ha-ha-ha A ha ha-ha-ha 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
