I Can't Tell


I'll never know who this life is meant for,

time is money and that's why I can't afford to spend more.

I'm jus hoping to do things right and be someone's mentor,

cause I plan to leave my legacy, what else is there to live for?

There's just mistakes and regrets and other things for me to vent towards.

 

We can judge a well known stranger for his decision making,

but he's just like us, living to be the greatest

We fill a spot that's supposed to be considered vacant,

and rush time when we're supposed to be considered patient,

or call ourselves old fashion because we envy the trending latest.

 

To think the good memories is what we put behind us,

to think bad luck knows its way back home like Pocahontas,

or the fact less men enjoy church because their interest is with Nicki in anaconda,

and more fathers only remember things after their drunk reminder.
