Alchemy

[Intro] It's like turning nothing into everything Starting with scraps and redefining what society thinks is quality Like who thought up the golden standard, the haves? The have nots ask not what you can do for them but what have you done? When you're sick and you're tired and you're hungry and you're thirsty And you take that first bite or drink, you sip slow Because truth is harsh and it burns, but it's also addictive You want more 'til you... (Drink, more, water) [Verse] Flooded the market, murdering flows it's blood on the carpet A crime scene, gave 'em the light Wait 'till I turn on the high beams Niggas ain't seeing me Drunk off this water you might just see three of me Don't greet me as God, my nigga I ain't no deity Take off them water wings, I'm losing water weight, I been on creatine Curing my countenance, creating this gold from the lead in my pencil I think I'm a alchemist, and it's gon take courage no cowardly dogs In the pound, we don't want 'em round No love lost or found, don't give a fuck bout a clown Bit 'em with the Pros conversation profound I was down on my luck but I'm still myself Drinking all this water tryna heal myself Know I keep it real even steal homie Just want you to feel It I don't really ever feel myself Remember when I had to find a meal myself Fresh out of jail, crashed at my nigga Slims He ain't think twice bout the shit The move was a roll of the dice Know the lord on my side cause them 63rd nights was a bitch Always knew that life wasn't this though Still had to get right with the wrist wrote this though With a little light and a pistol Lowkey, peep how he keep the peace, you know me [Outro] They say I be talking bout water too much You hear that? Ha ha That's how many fucks I could give Still I got love for a hater, would give up a rib They say they confused about ginger ale Well come have a sip when it's chill Y'all need to chill People tell me I'm that nigga now I know none of that shit is real
