"Mona Lisa" lyrics

Purpose is greater than pleasure
I feel great under pressure
I could do it alone
But we do it better together
That's how I treat my endeavours
I always needed to learn
But never needed a lecture
In case you need a refresher

I've been on the eastside, keep tryin'
Ridin' with my Mona Lisa, you see why
Mind spin like ballerinas, thrift shop
Got it feelin' like a freestyle, meanwhile
I've been on the go
How could they not know?

I spent six hundred thousand minutes on it
I've been through the gauntlet
I felt unloved and unimportant
An array, an assortment of feelings
I've had people break my heart and then deny they involvement
I've had days for the longest, and nights the darkest
I've had greats tell me that I'm the rawest
I've had verses feel like the middle of August
I've been in rooms filled with greatness
And you just tryna absorb it
I know people who truly believe being fake is important
But what they chasin' is morbid
I get it, your place is enormous
Flex if you wish
I wish I could get a paid endorsement
To bless you with this
Steady trying to break you a portion
For setting up tricks
You would've gotten away with it too
But those meddling kids

I've been on the eastside, keep tryin'
Ridin' with my Mona Lisa, you see why
Mind spin like ballerinas, thrift shop
Got it feelin' like a freestyle, meanwhile
I've been on the go
How could they not know?

I've been on the eastside, keep tryin'
Ridin' with my Mona Lisa, you see why
Mind spin like ballerinas, thrift shop
Got it feelin' like a freestyle, meanwhile
I've been on the go
How could they not know?
