Role Model

[00:12.25] Wash away my sins with that dirty water
[00:14.82] Grew up with the stick-up kids and the drug importers
[00:17.50] Got dropped dimes, we toted nickels and we slung them quarters
[00:20.25] Now my passport blasted, I've crossed a hundred borders
[00:23.03] That merch been selling like its meth, we trying to cover orders
[00:25.93] My old heads aint teach me shit they were fucking snorters
[00:28.74] Out of line, I heard you're gossiping on court recorders
[00:31.59] My life Illmatic it was written, God's my only author
[00:33.95] Salutations
[00:35.29] Life or death, we made evaluations
[00:37.25] Self-made, no longer seeking no one's validation
[00:40.15] 100 bottles in the club that we valet the Wraith in
[00:42.99] I learned that love and hate is the same thing, it's all adjacent
[00:45.60] Can't get complacent I've got bills to pay
[00:47.65] Fuck em if they feel a way
[00:48.65] Exactly what my killers say
[00:50.22] Signed up with my soul, they cashed me out a couple Mill today
[00:53.13] My youngin's in the streets, I flew them out so they don't drill today
[00:55.46] And it's so hard to be a role model
[00:57.85] While I'm fighting with my own demons
[00:59.65] Pouring out this gold bottle
[01:00.91] I was all alone scheming
[01:02.47] I took those streaming checks and spent them on these stones gleaming
[01:05.31] Out of touch, might cut my phone off for the whole weekend
[01:07.19] Isolated from the world
[01:08.47] Sometimes I stay in my bubble
[01:09.78] Firearm in my possession
[01:11.28] Hundred K in this duffle
[01:12.52] My mama told me, count ya blessings
[01:14.12] You got angles above you
[01:15.37] I'm out of touch and I keep stressing
[01:16.96] Trying to stay out of trouble
[01:18.24] Say in my prayers
[01:19.07] I'm on this lonely road
[01:19.71] I'm sliding
[01:21.06] Putting these drugs into my body till I'm vibing
[01:23.99] Forty on me in this coupe
[01:25.26] This world is violent
[01:28.05]
