lyrics

Lead my team to the gold like I'm Popovich
I don't play in my game, I'm on top of it
I was in my own way, I was blocking this
Had to show my little girl who her papa is
I'm shooting my shot, Stojaković
I don't play in my game, I'm on top of it
I was in my own way, I was blocking this
Had to show my little girl who her papa is
Lead my team to the gold like I'm Popovich
I don't play in my game, I'm on top of it
I was in my own way, I was blocking this
Had to show my little girl who her papa is
I'm shooting my shot, Stojaković
I don't play in my game, I'm on top of it
I was in my own way, I was blocking this
Had to show my little girl who her papa is

Remember when we had no pot to piss in
I was concerned with the competition
Now I feel like my only opposition
Stay in my lane and play my position
All of these people were not the issue
I was just using them as an excuse
And when you deal with these mental issues
It makes you feel like the world's against you

I can't cry, they say that's not what men do
Have you ever had demons befriend you?
Can't be sane but I sure could pretend to
Can't be sure but I sure could pretend to
I took my heart off the menu
I sewed it onto my sleeve
And I know there's people who love me
But deep down I'm afraid they might leave

Lead my team to the gold like I'm Popovich
I don't play in my game, I'm on top of it
I was in my own way, I was blocking this
Had to show my little girl who her papa is
I'm shooting my shot, Stojaković
I don't play in my game, I'm on top of it
I was in my own way, I was blocking this
Had to show my little girl who her papa is

Weight of the world on my shoulders is heavy
But it's not as heavy as what's coming soon
I ate a couple of eddies
Feel better already and later I'll be on the moon
I don't got time for excuses
I was my own nuisance
Changed that in twenty twenty-two
They say all rappers should think they're the best
I don't know about best but I'm better than you

Lead my team to the gold like I'm Popovich
I don't play in my game, I'm on top of it
I was in my own way, I was blocking this
Had to show my little girl who her papa is
I'm shooting my shot, Stojaković
I don't play in my game, I'm on top of it
I was in my own way, I was blocking this
Had to show my little girl who her papa is
