letra de ides of march - prince of roads

verse 1:

style and confidence
nike checks
and sponsorships
what’s left of his character
when you strip the prince accomplishments
this one’s not about the bars and double entaundras
this is real talk
and if i’m being honest
like for starters
my mother gambles, father’s alcoholic
i’m looking for myself at bottom of a bottle or at the bottom of a dollar
i probably won’t quit til i’m dead broke or in a hospital
i needed more constrictive ways to deal with all my problems
if i wrote them all down i’d be a best selling novelist
and i’m such a f-ckin narcissist
i can’t even take a compliment
my ego so bloated
tell me something good
i’m like i know i wrote it
i start boasting how i could do this sh-t with no eyes open
meet me in the flesh i’m calm and collected
but behind closed doors i’m hot in the head
it’s in my dna its in my father’s genetics
told me take a chill so i pop on the reg
i’m telling you don’t push me i’m cause close to the edge
i crack a lot of jokes just to handle all my stress
in duress i’m a comedian
hannibal burress
like ain’t it funny how my family’s disconnected
my little bros and sis sleeping at two separate addresses
i take my woes in life and i used music to express it
so i guess everything’s a blessing
depending on perspectives
having dreams about bright lights at the ends of tunnels
got me convinced my end is coming
i don’t know when its coming
the build up got me bugging
3/15 and i’m feeling like julius
suspicious someone in my circle will try do me in
my whole att-tude on something shakespearean
beware the ides of march and be weary of any friends
who don’t have my best interest and are fearful to see me win
two faced n-ggas out here looking like evil twins
they bite the hand that feeds so i guess they don’t respect me
but what else was i expecting
trust gets you k!lled
n-ggas only loyalties is to their next meal
and as fate p-sses
the b-st-rds wanna break bread and raise gl-sses with me
mother f-ckin’
snakes in gr-sses
put em on blast
they double crossed jesus
imagine what they scheming on my black -ss
you know how the old sayings go
stick to the devils you know
and keep your enemies close
cause at the end of the day
ain’t no friends in show business
i’m still learning not to take it personal
almost ain’t believe myself till i bore witness
how these n-ggas move so greasy to get it how get it
worked too hard to put my self in my position
to let opposition f-ck up my ambitions
i was born on the ides march
and by the tides i march
down the psychopath of the madmen
i’m trying to turn my art into futures
but everyone sooth-says it’s useless
d-mn, can’t be that hard to imagine
all i wanted to do was
make music
to inspire the youth
use it to talk bout my truth
maybe have little fun in the booth
the kind of sh-t that gets you lit
when ride in the coup
i got my own motives
but i gotta meet quotas
cause if only spoke woke sh-t
it’d all go unnoticed
i turn a phrase like
the game on it’s head now it’s hop-hip
be the reason i got rich
and if bros needs me i can tell them i got them
i used to have options but made some hard choices
i could’ve been a doctor or lawyer, somebody important
but i don’t think that’s the right path for me
momento mori, life is shorter than you realize
people from where i live ain’t promised life past 25
i know this guy that born the same day as me
and it puts me in my place when i found out that he died
