Rapsody - Laila's Wisdom lyrics

Look don't worry bout anything they told you
Remember what she SAID about winter
And what the cold do
Everything's a season and some things
You gotta go through
Believe me I don' seen it all
You're young talking to the old you
When haters come around look em down
Tell em "we don't owe you"
You gon lose some friends but those
Circles are better than the ovals
A black man left the oval
Keep that style you got soulful
The best of the best gon fear you
Sky's the limit see, I told you
You gon be the difference between McDonald's
Burger King and Whole Foods
Do your thang and slip thru ib em
They ain't gon have no clue
You won’t need no toll
Booths, they'll pay attention, hov do
They'll ask you for advice tell em
The same thing i told you
Should be a crime to be this fly and awesome
And to think love is all it cost em
Feel like Jordan this the ball
That Pippen tossed em
I'm the underdog and gold is what flossin’
When they told me my chances of
Losing was higher than divorces
You gotta know your worth and work
‘cus I can't force ya
Growing up I shopped at Kmart and Ross’
Celebrated every win
And learned to learn from all my losses
I never signed paperwork without
Reading the clauses
My parents worked way too hard to
Not get no credit for it
I'm a trip like Grayson Allen
Y'all never made me VALID
I learn that from Phylicia
Rashad and Debbie Allen
I'm the other one them another
Ones screaming like Khaled
We don't match up, ask my stylist
I rock Nike and New Balance
I drink water by gallons
Y'all should call me captain
I was told to be the flow and
Not follow it while y’all actin’
I'm the better version of what you
Used to think and call talent
I been bankin, check my balance
You a bet away from skidrow
I owe Sallie Mae but owe my people way mo’
God rested on the seventh day
And worked on me on day fo’
I’ve been killing for a long time
My lawyers gotta caseload
I cracked the code
It's no longer safe for y'all
Kujo still the scariest of all the dogs
After that come all my dawgs
Talent level’s thru the walls
I'm Juggernaut, riding wit my car doh’ locked
Coppers known to hang out
On these kinda blocks don’t get shot!
They say we 3
5ths human, well the rest of me’s an autobot
I’m really hot
You should ask my team and dem
Jamla’s still the squad and my
Confidence is thru the roof
I appreciate the compliments
Laila’s Wisdom, rest in peace i love you dear
