Freestyle Season


Recently life's been good Or so it has seemed I've done all I've could To create myself redeemed From sports to music to school ive schemed but I'm missing the life that's in need I'm talking the bros I don't give time to The hoes I do crime to This moment is mine so I'll use it to rhyme fume The time I waste i wont get back I know these are the years but I'm set on a track. Like a train with no stop and no going back its for me to confess that im feeling  wack. Yeah Im building success sure But what for. Success ain't shit. Yes What's wealth all for yourself. Crest on all gain with no pain but that ain't the game cuz thad make us insane I see a pretty dress but she ain't the one Cuz I set my heart once thinking I'm 1 for 1. See that was the case till she left me in haste taking my heart wrapped up in  her pretty suitcase. I'm not obsessed with money At least not for the goods Ya see i stress about the money for the damaged neighborhoods Ive seen what the lack of it effects The troubles that connect , the fights from the depths and it hurts till you correct.
