How can you fairly assess something from the outside looking in?

There's gotta be them times you'll be wrong. Nah Mean?

How can a mother fucka go round and hate a nigga

he never even met that he dont even know and shit?

I think this rap shit is all beef



Y'all dont even know every day I'm livin with stress

Got up out the streets you think a nigga could rest

Can't even enjoy myself at a party unless

I'm on the dance floor hot ass vest

You think I'm freakin' these chicks right?

I'try not to brush against they chest

You get a lawsuit for shit like that, I feel trapped

Swear to everything when I leave this earth

It's gon' be on both feet, never knees in the dirt

You could try me fucka but when I squeeze it hurts, fine

We'll lose two lives, yours and mines

Gimme any amount of time dont let Ms. Carter grieve

at the funeral parlor drippin' tears on my sleeve

Told the judge didn't budge it was him or me

and I ain't trying to be hard but I'm guilty as charged

Put my mercy on this court and my faith in God

And pray hard none of my nephews wanna be stars...Lucky Me



Chorus: Karen Anderson



You only know what you see,

You dont understand what it takes to be me.



I hate all girls with alterior motives

That's why I'm twenty plus years old, no sons no daughters

Hate putting my life in the hands of fake promoters

Hear the hate in my voice right? I hate that you noticed

Niggas wanna strip to the bone for shit you own

Hate a nigga like that faggot, get your own

Hate that I can't roam the street without the clip and chrome

Knowing one day Im'a have to flip, c'mon

You know the shit don't stop 'til the Crist don't pop

And you have to kill a nigga and your wrist don't lock

I'm trapped the whole worlds against me in fact,

It aint no turning back. Bring It On

Hate the price of fame cause it cost too much

Can I live without y'all niggas saying I floss too much?

Hate the way you make this hate flow all through us

Steady looking for flaws through us.... Lucky Me



Chorus: Karen Anderson, Jay-Z



You only know what you see,

You dont understand what it takes to be me

You only know what you see,

(Since I was 4 years old, I been told, everything that glitters ain't gold)

You dont understand what it takes to be me

(And now that I've arrived

I see those truths unfold before my eyes in this world so cold)



Nigga see you in the street, pretend to be friendly

But I know any type of success breeds envy

I know in the back of your mind your conjuring ways to hen me

Leave my friends in a circle pouring out Henny

But G's is heaven bound so how I'm gon' receive

Anything y'all pour to the ground next time throw it up

And ain't nothing changed so even in my afterlife I show it up

Dont grieve for me my art remains

like a dart from the speaker to your heart

Spiritually through the portal now my words as a mortal

Plan to leave without a fight I plant a seed I give life

Though I can't see past the girls greed to call her wife

Next time your thinking heist better be precise

Cause I'm fully prepared. One of us is gon' leave here

I have no regrets even though I wanna see grow

My godsons Boogie, Sonny and Rimo
