Insanity


People see how hard I work,

And they say to me,

“Yo you doing too much”,

“Yo you be wildin respect”,

“Yo you be buggin”,

And the response I give them is,

“Yeah, I know”

But now that I think about it,

How am I crazy for wanting to live a good life?

How am I crazy for wanting big rewards in my future?

How am I crazy for doing something that most people are too lazy or scared to do?

People look at me like I’m crazy for being an overachiever,

I love it.

Maybe I am a little crazy,

But what people don’t realize is,

My insanity will lead me to

Success
