Tellin' Myself

U.S.D.A.
 Cold Summer
 I Keep Tellin' Myself
 [Young Jeezy]
 And Lord knows I, try, to do the right thing
 With a chrome in the front woulda done the same thing
 Got my strap cocked back, adrenaline rush
 And when the dope fly over mothafuckas got bust
 To lose everything to 'caine
 Turn a hundred to a mil, done it all with 'caine
 Turn a hustle to a label done it all with brains
 And I told em all down, done it all with change
 Look him dead in his eyes told him nigga let's get it
 And the homie in the mirror said, 'nigga I'm wit it'
 You want it done right, you gotta do it yourself
 That's what I keep tellin' myself
 (I keep tellin' myself)
 [Chorus 2X: Bloodraw]
 I'ma keep it real til my very last breath
 That's what I keep tellin' myself
 (I keep tellin' myself)
 That's why I stay on my grind cause it's all about the wealth
 That's what I keep tellin' myself
 (I keep tellin' myself)
 [Bloodraw]
 I'm tryna do it right, I ain't tryna go to jail
 I'm on my knees every night, I ain't tryna go to hell
 Tryna live life, I ain't ready to die
 I got a son who needs me, and I ain't tryna leave
 Got a clique then niggas love me, wanna see me win
 Got my family over here, ain't got no friends
 Me and Slick in the streets, we was waitin' for a rap
 Sat down with Young Jizzle, got me out the trap
 Hold my finger to the sky, it's the motto we follow
 See we live for today and we pray for tomorrow
 Cryin' so hard and I hope for the best
 Patience is a virtue, that's what I keep tellin' myself
 [Chorus 2X]
 [Slick Pulla]
 Look past the cameras beyond the glory
 A new legacy (uh-huh), this is our story
 I walk with my head high, chest pokin' out
 Live for the moment, fuck bein' stressed out
 But every corner you turn, the snakes is watchin'
 I drive right by and play the lane like stoppin'
 Chill, this the wrong tree you're barkin' up
 Got my K and my bible, I stay prayed up
 No pity for you, I'm good with him
 So no matter how it is, I'm good with him
 Cause ain't no rules when you playin' for wealth
 That's what you better tell yourself
 (That's what I tell myself)
 [Chorus 3X]
