verse 1
Tell me why are you testing the flame
I'm on fire, no lie I'm sexin the game
And I'm exing my dame
She so confused she asking why, so let me explain
I love this life I know that doesn't sound less than insane
See money is the answer, if you question the aim
now we stand and endure the pressure of fame
My train of thought is a wreck and I'm expressing the pain
Could never give her all of me
And that wouldn't be fair
But my heart is too small it couldn't be shared
If I had told her sooner we wouldn't be here
Sadly I know there's no other who will will ever compare
The truth is a b**** and she hurts
Talent has a price, that's why it's a gift and a curse
This' who I was destined to be
But my love for success doesn't make the recipe cheap
hook
For all I ever put you through,
Never meant to put all these things on you
Listen please
How am I gonna make it right
How do I express the love inside
Help me please
Ain't no more I can give but me
verse 2
Now I am the start of the show
Cheers getting louder, bright lights is starting to grow
They keep feeding my ego so the larger it grows
I used to hide it pretty well but it's starting to show
This lifestyle is crazy and wild
My Sundays are no longer lazy and mild
The fast lane, rap stars and models
Groupie broads who swallow,
An adjustment could take me a while
Wow, this is actually a crash course
No seat belt, so be careful what you wish for
Or what you ask for, cause you can get it
And before you know it, you on the dashboard
They say we are never promised tomorrow
The time we are living on is borrowed
I try to find comfort at the bottom of this bottle
It's not enough liquor to drown all of my sorrows
hook
verse 3
I never ask for much, I thin you know that
Caught up in ****, emails show facts
But besides that, I'm going for the jugular
Nothing to lose, I'm contemplating better formulas
Poppa taught me toughen up, lately I've been f***ing up
Keeps telling me she needs a man who
Do more than just bust a nut
Maybe I'm outta luck, maybe I can't get up
Maybe my time running out and I don't give a f***
But then again God showed me what I must do
It's gon take a lot of time and energy to trust you
And the pain raw, sharp enough to cut you
Emotional stampede, run before they crush you
Pray for sunset,matter fact the sunrise
Waiting for the day to come
Where God's son rise
God lives inside of me
I believe and I can never let go
Of the passion that just burn inside
