S.W.A.G (Swerving With the Audacity to Gain)


If a female says she likes my swag I might have to call her stupid
My swag is idiot prone
So I doubt I'll lose it 
How does a person get kudos for looking a certain way?
That's like giving a straight person kudos for looking gay
That don't make no sense
Who knew being about a dollar 
Would make people senseless
It's cool though
Making yourself look like a fool though 
I guess homie
Back then you was the man homie
I'm not gonna ask what happened to you
I seen it with my own eyes in each hue
Now the question is what are you gonna do
My best advice is to get a clue 
And see if that will help the cause
Because you're currently taking a lost 
Trying to be a boss 
When you don't know the cost
Of pulling a 9 to 5 
Or even a 7:30 to 2 
Since your best chance to survive
Is through 
Educating yourself to better yourself 
Pulling checker moves 
Trying to gain wealth 
Going over and over challenges to get the tools
To put your family in the right direction 
Instead of one direction 
Which is the opposite of the up direction 
Meaning you're going down brethren 
And not to say you're not ready 
But Kevin Hart even came up short 
No pun intended just a serious calamity 
That everyone comes to forklift
My advice is to just come up truthfully
Because we all trying to ball out
So Nike and Converse fully
Until the double zeros are counted out
