"Temptations" lyrics
(feat. Manana)
We've been tryna tell the world
All my people suffered
But it's going in one ear and out the other
I grew up in a place where you don't see too many prosper
I wanted to be like the drug dealers and the robbers
Fast cars and the jewelry will make you ponder
Costs too much to be a doctor
Go get a chopper
And that could make you lose your mind
Or make you a monster
It never was a real option to be a rockstar
Genies and them shooting stars
Nowhere to be found
But temptation is like your cousin
Cause he's always been around
Never take that bible anywhere it's always in the house
Never take that bible anywhere it's always in the house
Genies and them shooting stars
Nowhere to be found
But temptation is like your cousin
Cause he's always been around
Never take that bible anywhere it's always in the house
Never take that bible anywhere it's always in the house
I need a second
Maybe a minute
Although I defended
Every decision
Am I a menace
Do I need balance
Am I just desperate
As a recessive
I need to decide
Left of to the right
If I pay the tithe
Will that even change my life
While every single day I feel like life is just game and
I don't even wanna play
Run it
Running the race
Run it
Running in place
Run it
We're running from cages
Run it
We're running from fame
Run it
With the movers and shakers
Run it
They were very persuasive
Run it
Begging and taking
Run it
Shaking that bacon
Run it
Oh it's pity their race
Run it
That's how they raise them
Run it
And nobody running for president
Run it
Young niggas running their residence
Run it
Take what they want at your residence
Run it
You have a gun at your residence
Run it
Protect all you love at your residence
Run it
Aah yeah
Genies and them shooting stars
Nowhere to be found
But temptation is like your cousin
Cause he's always been around
Never take that bible anywhere it's always in the house
Never take that bible anywhere it's always in the house
Genies and them shooting stars
Nowhere to be found
But temptation is like your cousin
Cause he's always been around
Never take that bible anywhere it's always in the house
Never take that bible anywhere it's always in the house
All my people suffered
But it's going in one ear and out the other
I grew up in a place where you don't see too many prosper
I wanted to be like the drug dealers and the robbers
Fast cars and the jewelry will make you ponder
Costs too much to be a doctor
Go get a chopper
And that could make you lose your mind
Or make you a monster
It never was a real option to be a rockstar
Genies and them shooting stars
Nowhere to be found
But temptation is like your cousin
Cause he's always been around
Never take that bible anywhere it's always in the house
Never take that bible anywhere it's always in the house
Genies and them shooting stars
Nowhere to be found
But temptation is like your cousin
Cause he's always been around
Never take that bible anywhere it's always in the house
Never take that bible anywhere it's always in the house
I need a second
Maybe a minute
