-Ask yourself why, it's so shocking
-Escape from your mind, and go enter your conscience, just sit with yourself and start plotting
-How many times you gon' suffer the same shit, man? It's time to get on it
-I just give a fuck if you honest
-With yourself and do what you promised
-Man fuck all the obstacles, we'll reach the top of the crop, if we do it the longest
