Nobody Knows
[Intro]
Somebody dropped a jewel on me one time and I kind of forgot about it until I was going through something. He said it's a good feeling to get what you want but only a stupid fool hates to turn from evil. He said wise friends make you wise but you hurt yourself by going around with fools

[Verse 1]
At 23, had a business had friendships had a company
Glad to be on my own living lovely
If you needed anything it was on me
Souped(?) cars deep going on shopping sprees
And every week I bought the get highs and blew a g'
Met a thug fell in love weekends in A.C
Yo, when friends fell out with moms they stayed with me
If I ever needed, they said they'd do the same for me
Cause when friends is like your fam that's how it's supposed to be
Would've died for the large(?) ones close to me
You won't have to learn what I learned hopefully
It's quite plain that

[Chorus]
Nobody owes yah, nobody calls yah
Nobody knows you when you out the game (x3)

[Verse 2]
Trouble with the label trouble with the business
Led to trouble with money and trouble with friendships
From ocean views to ghetto blues can't believe I played the fool
I should've cherished my jewels
Never knew my own peoples would turn so cruel
Except for a few the rest was like it's on you
Thought about school but I had dreams to fulfill
To many visions of doing the shows and seeing my name on the bill
Life got ill wise statistics gave me the chills
Found 9 out of 10 phony, that told me they was real
So I vowed, the next time I get on and get a deal
To lay stronger foundations and just build build build
Keep my head to the sky, and see God in pain
And never will I trust in chariots and horses again
Should've focused on my future but the moment was the aim
So whatever people did only me could I blame
[Chorus]
Nobody owes yah, nobody calls yah
Nobody knows you when you out the game (x3)

[Verse 3]
Working on the low like a private dancer
But I know now that prayers get answered
Back on my feet it feels heavenly
Old faces looking like how can it be? Remember me
I'm the one you counted out the one you did doubt
The one you borrowed from then got sent about
The one you rejected the one you neglected
Is the same one now like reborn and resurrected
The one you denied now can't look in the eye
Cause I'm the one you spit on when I fell by the wayside
I'm the one you left bleeding the one you left grieving
But true soldiers go to war in any season
I suffered not in vain now prepare for the reign
Knowing it takes more than fortune and fame to truly maintain
But no matter how it change one thing remains the same
That nobody owes you when you out the game

[Chorus]
Nobody owes yah, nobody calls yah
Nobody knows you when you out the game (x3)
