[00:21.788]Now, this is my job, I will not quit it
[00:24.217]Pulled me out the depths when I thought that I was finished
[00:26.800]Yeah I questioned if I could go the distance
[00:29.505]That's just the work, regardless of who's listening, listening
[00:32.797]Listen, see I was meant to be a warrior
[00:35.144]Fight something amongst me, leave here victorious
[00:37.967]Classroom of kids, or a venue performing
[00:40.416]If I'd done it for the money I'd have been a f**king lawyer
[00:43.056]Concrete, vagabond, van telling stories
[00:46.164]Humbled by the road, I'm realizing I'm not important
[00:48.757]See life's a beautiful struggle, I record it
[00:51.513]Hope it helps you maneuvering through yours and
[00:54.608]That's why we stay in the lab at night
[00:56.622]I've been staring into this pad for over half my life
[00:59.344]A true artist won't be satisfied
[01:01.913]So I guess that's the sacrifice
[01:03.916]And I say
[01:04.664]
[01:05.648]Make the money, don't let the money make you
[01:07.867]Change the game, don't let the game change you
[01:10.516]I'll forever remain faithful
[01:13.415]All my people stay true, I say
[01:15.995]Make the money, don't let the money make you
[01:18.653]Change the game, don't let the game change you
[01:21.525]I'll forever remain faithful
[01:23.990]All my people stay true
[01:25.682]
[01:26.390]Forget about the fame, fortune and the mansion
[01:28.726]Sitting and tripping watching myself on a plasma
[01:31.385]Yeah, I start slipping when I'm thinking about that stuff
[01:34.049]Ego once swollen until karma catches that up, that up
[01:37.705]I'm my grandma's number one grandson
[01:40.091]I lost myself to remember who that was
[01:42.752]We start thinking about some kicks, a necklace
[01:45.523]What I really need is a job off CraigsList
[01:48.274]Take away the dot com, name, love
[01:50.796]Fans, Twitter followers, and the buzz
[01:53.569]See, you keep the issues but you take away the drugs
[01:56.167]And I had to find out who I really was
[01:59.255]Who I really wasn't
[02:01.695]So sick of who I was becoming
[02:04.727]Yeah, tired of running
[02:06.457]Time to look at the man in the mirror until I can learn to love him
[02:09.446]
[02:10.006]Make the money, don't let the money make you
[02:12.579]Change the game, don't let the game change you
[02:15.506]I'll forever remain faithful
[02:18.031]All my people stay true, I say

[02:26.051]I'll forever remain faithful
[02:28.853]All my people stay true
[02:30.672]
[02:42.532]Of course I want dubs and a candy-painted 'lac
[02:44.512]Watch the videos and get the girls in the back
[02:47.516]But if that's what I believe in, and the reason that I rap
[02:49.993]Uncle Sam is my pimp when he puts me on the track
[02:52.647]

[03:19.967]I'll forever remain faithful
[03:22.769]Stay true, stay true, stay true
[03:25.669]
[03:26.933]Forget about the fame
[03:28.906]I said forget about the fame
[03:31.427]I'll forever remain faithful
[03:34.435]Stay true, stay true, stay true

Now, this is my job, I will not quit it
Pulled me out the depths when I thought that I was finished
Yeah I questioned if I could go the distance
That's just the work, regardless of who's listening, listening
Listen, see I was meant to be a warrior
Fight something amongst me, leave here victorious
Classroom of kids, or a venue performing
If I'd done it for the money I'd have been a f**king lawyer
Concrete, vagabond, van telling stories
Humbled by the road, I'm realizing I'm not important
See life's a beautiful struggle, I record it
Hope it helps you maneuvering through yours and
That's why we stay in the lab at night
I've been staring into this pad for over half my life
A true artist won't be satisfied
So I guess that's the sacrifice
And I say
Make the money, don't let the money make you
Change the game, don't let the game change you
I'll forever remain faithful
All my people stay true, I say
Make the money, don't let the money make you
Change the game, don't let the game change you
I'll forever remain faithful
All my people stay true
