Protecting my energy

(Reece, take 'em to church)

I feel like niggas ain't as real as me
So I'm protecting my energy
I've been talked down on by family
So nowadays, we don't speak like we enemies
Look in my eyes, see I've been crossed before
They hurt him bad, so bad he could feel it in his soul

Dripped in the latest, I guess that's the reason these niggas hating
I ain't never throw no shade, I grind hard and patiently waited
I was gambling with my life, but I promise, I've never been to Vegas
In the hood, shooting dice, clutching on a dirty .380
I'm good anywhere, I earned my stripes just like a zebra
Cold world, I'm in the projects, hugging on my heater
I took for me to get a million for her to see I ain't regular
I moved on, I don't need you, bitch, don't call my cellular
Big gun in my Moncler, I'm not a wrestler
Steppin' on niggas, check the score, I'm way ahead of you
Got crossed by a couple niggas I ain't expect hated
We had plans to ball together, but instead, the love faded

I feel like niggas ain't as real as me
So I'm protecting my energy
I've been talked down on by family
So nowadays, we don't speak like we enemies
Look in my eyes, see I've been crossed before
They hurt him bad, so bad he could feel it in his soul

I was raised by the streets, it's hard to adapt to the fame
Young nigga with a old soul, look in my eyes, you see pain
All these scars on my body, covered it with diamond chains
Hundred K in cash, I could act an ass with Johnny Dang
You know I love to spaz, I'm thumbing through the racks, I do my thing
Living life fast, still can't crash, I'm in my own lane
I came from the bottom, it's only right they let me touch the top
And how I'm saving up this bread, you would have thought it's 'bout to rot
They gave my nigga twenty-five, he don't never watch the clock
Rather beat on people's kids and do his time in the box
He forgot how to feel, but he know my love real
And he know I'll spend my last just to see him on a appeal

I feel like niggas ain't as real as me
So I'm protecting my energy
I've been talked down on by family
So nowadays, we don't speak like we enemies
Look in my eyes, see I've been crossed before
They hurt him bad, so bad he could feel it in his soul
