Distraction Lyrics

I really need a distraction

From the people testing me for a reaction

Just to hang around me is what they asking

But I can't give 'em that satisfaction

I really need a distraction

From the people testing me for a reaction

Just to hang around me is what they asking

But I can't give 'em that satisfaction

I remember being down bad and they was laughing

Said I would never make it they kept attacking

So I went about my business and look what happened

I'm up next all because I took action

They say your friends are your biggest haters I can imagine

One moment they hate you and the next they be capping

Claiming they been down with you man they be chatting

(Claiming they been down with you man they be chatting)

But It's an eye for an eye

A tooth for a tooth

I had to quote Seth

Cause I swear that it's true

They only see the end results of what you do

But they don't have a clue as to what you been through

They tryna see the vision so I blocked the view

They can't hold me back I'm unstoppable

They really envy my style I'm phenomenal

I remain humble even though it's optional

I done been through the pain

And been through the hurt

I let the hate motivate

So I can put in work

I had to find a way

A way to escape

So I picked up a pen

And started writing from the brain

Time is of the essence

And I will not forget it

I will chase my blessings

And make sure to protect it

People change up in a flash

When they see that I'm on the right path

I do what I gotta do and never look back

Cause life's too short for me to linger in the past

Cross me once shame on you

Cross me twice then you must be a fool

If you turn on me I won't even bat an eye

I gotta walk largely to better my life

If you not on my time then I don't want you by my side

Cause if the blind lead the blind we aint got nothing to find

I gotta go and get mine

You only live once so I gotta live it right

I done came a long way from living in the projects

Making money no stress now we flying private

A couple years ago to myself I made a promise

To better myself and everyday I make progress

I gotta thank god every time that I pray

Cause without him I wouldn't be who I am today

I had a dance with the devil and he pulled me away

And told me he believes that I got what it takes

I really need a distraction

From the people testing me for a reaction

Just to hang around me is what they asking

But I can't give 'em that satisfaction

I really need a distraction

From the people testing me for a reaction

Just to hang around me is what they asking

But I can't give 'em that satisfaction
