Malcolm West

You can call me Malcolm West man Never been A yes man I’ve always been a freshman With seniority perspectives I’m trying out electives Trying not to be selective I guess it’s true about what they say When your circle reflects On all your blessings No one ever test us Cause we well known Like DHS I’m likely to pull up to the scene To you I look overdressed I’m always giving it my all So don’t expect nothing less Parents grinding So I’m grinding So they won’t have to stress I had to stand my ground Cause when you nice They try walk over you I’m like Iron Man My suit of armor Is my ego Ain’t never had to struggle I thank the Lord Every morning I’ve always kept a good record So my name don't get tarnished Either way Whatever you say Won’t change my progress Regardless I always keep the good vibes flowing Call me the life of the party I'm always on point with the task But off the green I'm uncharted Never moving lethargic I rarely share much in common With you fools Y’all got the blues Out here giving out clues Closed mouths don’t get fed So just speak up what's true We all have own way To cope with things that we do You gotta want it as much Jordan When he played with flu Yeah man Whatever you want in life You just gotta grind for it You gotta strive for it Stand in long lines for it Hell die for it Sacrifices made every day Hell I done cried for it Like Cyborg A human computer I look ahead in the future & what I see Is my homies standing next to me Popping bottles Smoking weed Spreading love Is all we seek Different ways to make this cheese A boss so I do what I please Different women loving me A shepherd herding all you sheep I’ve been awake since bout 03 That’s way before Lebron was King Putting on for my whole team So we can all sit down & feast Bond is thicker than our blood & hair gel that they used in Grease 3rd eye always open So I see the ones that like to leech I always keep it real Cause I was told to practice what I preach I drop to my knees Pray to the Lord To keep a watch over me Pray for the ones Who I lost in the streets Pray for the ones Who be hating on the kid Cause I’m awesome see I don’t beef Life to short Whatcha mean Tides gone turn & you’ll see I ain’t gone stop While y’all stuck in them Lil boats I’ll be chilling in a yacht So when I said that This what I meant Y’all closed minded So you always stand alone In the end If you would open up your mind & see the life that we live You’ll see your life begin the change Like your friends in the end
