"Fortune & Fame" lyrics

"Fortune & Fame"

I'm on point like
Beneath your fingernails, if you clean 'em
My homie Butterfly Blade
Flips out when I need 'im
Losing ain't in the cards
Weep when you read 'em
Wake up if you're sleeping
Slap ya lucid from your dreaming

It's a journey
Don't stop believing!
Qualities redeemable belong to
Jesus only!
We some phonies
Not kings at all
Battling jabronies
While it does require cajones
And necessary at moments

Love is all they ever wanted
But the bitterness is quick to get the mental
Spittin venomous
Been at this a minute
At times, my own nemesis
Keep it fun and positive, a lot less strenuous

As the Garden of Eden, it's all good
Never been the truth
When I'm in the booth
I spit it thru your living room
Gimme Lil Dap I'm Living proof
Through the roof...bust
Lyrically I'm working with a surplus
Trust
WRBN, that's us

And it ain't fortune
And it ain't fame
But I pay my bills
And everybody in the war town
Know my name

And it ain't fortune
And it ain't fame
But I pay my bills
And everybody in the war town
Know my name

Yeah, life is good
Not dead yet
Stay sharp, don't sleep
I haven't been to bed yet
Stare in confusion as I laugh in my head
At the crap that we're fed
Big lie!
Fight for the bread
Like God won't provide
You know what I said
The past is dead
The future is alive
When it comes full circle
Only the real shit survives
Mean never been my thing
But I've been that
Pen that on ya fridge as a reminder
For the kids
Who know not about a wild one
Ashamed of what he did
The patient gentleman kindly says
"You don't know who you messing with."
How fresh is this?
No question, it's the best it gets
Regardless how poorly dressed he is
You might learn some shit
We all get our first time to burn a bridge
Not many build one
Consider this encouragement
Consider this encouragement

And it ain't fortune
And it ain't fame
But I pay my bills
And everybody in the war town
Know my name

And it ain't fortune
And it ain't fame
But I pay my bills
And everybody in the war town
Know my name

Just as sure as pimp'll promise you
Promiscuity prompts unity
Those lies are nothing new to me
I did Robitussin the the 90s
I'm not messing with lean
Unless it's in my '03 Tacoma, looking clean
Them woofers take a beating when I roll up on the scene
Nah mean?
If you don't, it's no big thing
I'm just that blank stare picking my teeth
Like, nah dog, ya lost me
I've heard people claim that it cost me
Well, aren't we very aware?
Guess what?

Every single working eyeball is looking over there
To wherever and that's everywhere!
And that's where opinions come from
Say you're scared if you're scared!
I get scared often
I'm not that cool
I'm just awesome
A boss, I'm far from
But I will contact a law firm
Andrew Schutt

And it ain't fortune
And it ain't fame
But I pay my bills
And everybody in the war town
Know my name

And it ain't fortune
And it ain't fame
But I pay my bills
And everybody in the war town
Know my name

And it ain't fortune
And it ain't fame
But I pay my bills
And everybody in the war town
Know my name

And it ain't fortune
And it ain't fame
But I pay my bills
And everybody in the war town
Know my name
