Never Ending Race
Yea
Never ending race that I'm runnin...
The never ending race that I'm runnin...
[Verse 1: Ben Al]
Its like people don't get it, they just get offended
Cause they hear a couple "Bitches", see a little smoke
I guess I'm easier to hate than I am to get to know
But when I get this dough, Lets let it stay the same
As the way it was before, and don't let any of it change
In a world so cold why is real so wrong and the truth taboo?
You ain't gotta really rap cause just yelling swags cool
You lie to look good, while we dying in the hood
While I'm misunderstood, cause they say I'm bad news
Cause I'm firing up some good, skin full of tattoos
Playing my game of life making good and bad moves
Cause it's good and bad sides
And I'm tryin to stay balanced not live a damn lie
And you hate when you hear me cuss and then judge me without the just of it
Judge when I'm yellin "Fuck a bitch" cause still you don't know me
Or how she went to police
How I felt on that day I found out she fucked my homie
Or how she said it was rape with a straight face when she told me
So I've grown cold, thats why it's harder to find the old me, I changed with times
So before you hate just to hate cause you don't know great when it hits you in the face
Put on my 15's and run my motherfuckin race, this never ending race.....

Yea, this never ending race that I'm runnin
Not for the ones who don't care what place they come in
Cause he who does best does best when he does him
And he dies inside when he doesn't
[Verse 2: Ben Al]
And Ima keep goin till I sell a million CD's
And my girlfriends father family finally wanna meet me
And my mom don't make excuses when they ask how Ben's doin
She say "he doin him, gettin more tattoos, and I guess makin music"
Cause they watchin MTV 2 and see me doin it and they kids got it on repeat
And smoke weed to it, So they say I ruined em
Even if I beat the odds I still somehow lose to them
But I'll lose to win, Cause I don't give a fuck
You don't know who I am and you don't know what I seen
Hear what you wanna hear and miss what I really mean
Never seen great so you hate on a n***a dreams and say they just n***a dreams
Cause you don't see the similes, haikus, and soliloquy's I gave invisibility
On purpose just make my shit more surface cause I'd be considered worthless if you don't see my ability
Even when I'm king you'll still send me to the guillotine
So I pace it till I make it, fakin for the tasteless
I'm PRE-destined for greatness so I pace it while I'm in the lead
...But fuck I'm just a human being

Runnin this never ending race that I'm runnin
Not for the ones who don't care what place they come in
Cause he who does best does best when he does him
And he dies inside when he doesn't
This never ending race that I'm runnin
Not for the ones who don't care what place they come in
Cause he who does best does best when he does him
And he dies inside when he doesn't
Never ending race that I'm runnin...
