Payroll Giovanni
Can’t Be Taught
[Verse 1]
Wakin’ up in mansions with a water view
Is the vision in my head that made a n***a move
Folks swearin’ we go back, I’m like I never knew
When I was sleepin’ in the basement, where the fuck was you? (Fuck was you?)
I was coppin’ work when they was gettin’ fresh
Now, it’s Dior shoes and shirt when I’m gettin’ dressed
Started blessin’ folks and started gettin’ blessed
Whoever can’t keep up, they ass is gettin’ left
Slowed myself down way too many times
To hеlp folks that later on put me in a bind
Life for mе was fine when I was doin’ crime
But I peeped with these rhymes I be changin’ lives
Loyalty to the game, ask my whole crew
The n***as speakin’ on me be n***as I wouldn’t speak to
Convertible Benz, that’s just to breeze through
Could pull up to the club bein’ extra, but I don’t need to (Nah)
Y’all still in the point-provin’ phase
Subtractin’ your money, I’m in my multiplyin’ days (Yup)
The hustle just in me, I used to have my plug amazed
Like “You young, but you get this shit, you on your way” (You a genius)

[Chorus]
Some shit just can’t be taught
Everybody can’t be boss (Nah)
Used to sell it all, but some shit just can’t be bought (Nah)
Some shit just can’t be taught, n***a
Some shit just can’t be taught
Everybody can’t be boss
Used to sell it all, but some shit just can’t be bought
Some shit just can’t be taught

[Verse 2]
Don’t put me in no category
With these n***as that’s always tellin’ stories
Swearin’ they real but comin’ off as corny
All these corny n***as really bore me
They wasn’t in the game, probably outside but in the way (In the way)
My whole household was into yay
Every day, I was prepared to claim it all if they ever raid (That’s my shit)
For this for my n***as hustlin’, gettin’ paid
Lookin’ at his wrist still amazed that he got a Roley bang (Look at this shit)
Yeah, it’s a trophy, gon’ and flaunt it, my n***a
But be cautious, it’s some animals that want it, my n***a
It’s a difference from motivatin’ and tauntin’, my n***a
These hoes ain’t the only ones gawkin’, my n***a (Keep your eyes open)
Transitioned quick to legitimate
When the time is right, pull your n***as in
The ones that wanna listen, not the hardheads
Small minds don’t see it until it’s large bread

[Chorus]
Some shit just can’t be taught
Everybody can’t be boss
Used to sell it all, but some shit just can’t be bought
Some shit just can’t be taught, n***a
Some shit just can’t be taught
Everybody can’t be boss
Used to sell it all, but some shit just can’t be bought
Some shit just can’t be taught
