Chorus- Fool me once shame on you, fool
Me twice shame on me/
Do it right or pay the price, what’s
The cost of living free/
All these scars, times was hard
Softly it was killing me/
Needed change flags on all my
Plays that came with penalties/ 2x
V1- Have mercy on my soul for the shit
That I didn’t know/
Blind to the fact but all my true colors
Started to show/
Was out of stock now I got so much in
Store (sto)/
Heard the knock at the door (doe)
Chose seeds over greed cause I
Just wanted to grow/
Make sure I plant it (planet)
Before I leave this earth/
Seeing my sons birth was my rebirth/
Never believed everything that I
Heard, I had to see it first/
The tide was to coming to clean us all
I had to learn to surf/
Shit even fought for my turf
This growth so captivating I don’t
Mind being a hostage/
How will I ever teach myself if I don’t
Acknowledge/
Fuck college, and a mansion shit I’m
Cool with a cottage/
Don’t know my worth so n***as
Scared to homage/
To be honest I can still speak Ebonics
And get my point across/
Too unique/
Shit stuck in my teeth so I had to floss/
I follow suit like Hugo, became
My own boss/
Treated deniers like remotes In the
Couch, told em get lost/
I was in trouble, start seeing
Double my eyes was crisscrossed/
Didn’t have time to make amigos I was
Bout to take off/
Stuck in a cage like Nicholas, Got sick
Of it sick John Travolta, so it was time
To face off/
Even had to shoot my shot 100
Times like Young Dolph no days off/
I will never give up, laying flat on my
Back/
Shit will never work out if I don’t sit up/
Always left my shovel out so ain’t shit
That you can dig up/
Cancer filled the city from every cig
(sig) that was lit up/
Born in a dark place/
Went through a heartbreak/
But I wouldn’t know shit if I didn’t
Make mistakes/
Slow and steady wins the race/
This is a mirror match and I’m going
Face to face/
This no debate/
Sorry not sorry Jeff Hardy, I had to
Twist the fate/
A lost cause moving place
To place/
Myself I had to cultivate/
Took some time to initiate/
The pain started to alleviate/
Locked up in my own prison I was
Beyond scared straight/
Can’t let my son have these same
Traits/
Standing in line, it’s a long wait/
I knew it was the right time, I was just
In the wrong place/
Started moving out like billy Joel
And got a bigger space/
I couldn’t wait/
Finally found the combination to
Crack the my safe/
Can’t believe what’s inside/
Chorus- Fool me once shame on you, fool
Me twice shame on me/
Do it right or pay the price, what’s
The cost of living free/
All these scars, times was hard
Softly it was killing me/
Needed change flags on all my
Plays that came with penalties/ 2x
