[Intro]
Yo
How many singles you got? (A lot)
How many notes did you jot? (A lot)
How many shows you done played, hit the stage, gave your heart and they never forgot? (A lot)
How many fans did you gain? (A lot)
How many fans have you lost? (A lot)
How many don't know the cost? (A lot)
What it takes to be a boss? (You not)
[Verse]
How many times did I dye my hair bro try to change it to keep 'em around
Switch up my sound
How many comments I read on the web that had me feelin down
How was I deep in depression, so deep in depression, a sea of depression, I drown
How many n***as that live in my state try to hit me with hate while they come for the crown? (A lot)
How many lives I impact? (A lot)
How much cash did I stack? (A lot)
How many times did I hit up the city and always give some of it back, then get a tax
I let my confidence waver from the way that they would react
Then I realize that misery loves company they'll never fuck with me they way too sad
Used to feel bad
No one can change it but you
Get off of yo lazy ass
How many times you gon' stare at a screen on yo phone when you know that don't get you the bag
Why you so mad?
Hating somebody that grew and they left they gon' bring they ass back
Why you so wack?
Can't do nothing on ya own
Why can't you just face the facts
Matter fact
How many stories imma tell to the kids
It's coming to this
A bunch of 'em is taking a whip
Up in they heads and they thinking that they tough with the thing
They running a crib and dub it with a gun to they friends
They duckin and dip and posting for a couple of clicks
It's up in the news, the proof is in the couple of clips
They dumb as it gets
It's coming from the music with the views and they abuse it think
It's cool when they end up in the pent
Head off in the cycle, repeat (A lot)
How many chasin' they dreams? (A lot)
How many of us give up cause we takin up failure as if it's defeat? (A lot)
How many of us is weak? (A lot)
How many of us is scared? (A lot)
How many of us don't understand that we got somebody who really cares?
