[Verse 1]
You-you-you-you-you fuckin’ with a n***a who ain’t really got too many more fucks to give
Take a look out the window, see how we fuckin’ live
And now I’m search for apologies, know I’ll never get ‘em
I’m lookin’ down on these haters ‘cause I can’t level with ‘em
I’m stayin’ focused, they angry ‘cause I won’t settle with ‘em
Way too anointed for n***as who got the Devil in ‘em
I walk the path less traveled and that’s all the difference
Everybody linin’ up to eat but who gon’ do them dishes?
N***as be whole bitches and bitches be cold, vicious
Everybody runnin’ with you, ain’t conditioned for the distance
Don’t learn that shit the hard way, n***as who share your hallway
Could be the same n***as that’ll rob you in the broad day
I know that sound hella crazy but I’m sure you’ll adapt
And that’s for the unborn and the babies who black
Thank the Lord everday that people pay me to rap
‘Cause if they didn’t, I’d be trippin', I go crazy and snap
[Chorus]
I ain’t ‘bout to trip about it really, though
N***a, I’m fine, n***a, I’m fine
‘Cause I get a weak lung way before
I get a weak mind, I get a weak mind
I ain’t ‘bout to trip about it really, though
N***a, I’m fine, n***a, I’m fine
‘Cause I get a weak liver way before
I get a weak mind, I get a weak mind

[Verse 2]
And now-and now-and now-and now I’m hardly goin’ out, I’m always in the house
‘Cause n***as call you bro but then you business in they mouth
These two-faced rust covered n***as old pennies
And keep me with a hot temper and some cold Henny
They always talkin’ ‘bout that shit that’s hard to care about
Don’t know nobody with a job, they pay a fair amount
I always handle all my business, I don’t care to pout
Now all a sudden n***as know me, tryna share the clout
But please tell me where you be at when I need a hand
The block be hot, I’m tryna keep it cool, I need a fan
Last night, I heard they shot a n***a with his hands up
That’s right, another one, the last n***a had on handcuffs
And what’s really bad, I think the public numb to it
Look what they done to us, who the fuck could undo it?
It’s time to put them Xannies down, we got some work to do
Love your fellow man, realize that he hurtin’, too
Shit, n***a
[Chorus]
I ain’t ‘bout to trip about it really, though
N***a, I’m fine, n***a, I’m fine
‘Cause I get a weak lung way before
I get a weak mind, I get a weak mind
I ain’t ‘bout to trip about it really, though
N***a, I’m fine, n***a, I’m fine
‘Cause I get a weak liver way before
I get a weak mind, I get a weak mind
