Successful Failure. by Ricki G Lyrics
INTRO
Daddy what you doing
Why you always writing
Here you go again
Thats all you fuckin do is you work all day
And then you come home and sit at this fuckin table all night writing raps
For what
Like its not getting you anywhere
We got DISCONNECTION notice
After DISCONNECTION notice
Rent due
Like why dont you get a real fuckin job
Fuck this shit Ricki
Fuck this shit
Talkin bout you writing raps
Nigga you need to be writing yo name on a fucking job application
Get a REAL fuckin job
Working all these fuckin hours and they ain't paying you nothing
Like NOTHING
What you got to show for it
VERSE - RICKI G
I ain’t really got no plan B option this shit the last resort
Tired of suffering I can't take it no more
Say its beauty in the struggle the art of survival
Im just riding and blowing I got tired of the bottle
At a war with depression
Pray for connections gettin closer to god
If I fail I can tell you I tired
Rather risk it no hold ups
But i don't give no fucks
Gotta take it slow sit back I can’t rush
People hating on me that I neva met
And I got bitches in my business that I neva hit
Cops shoot a nigga down then neva get charged
Born black out the wound like permanent scars
Five stars on the run feeling innocent
Hav u eva had to pawn shit to pay the rent
I Gotta family to feed can neva let em down
Penny pinching we just grinding for larger amounts
Bad Actions
Got me feeling heartless
People seek opportunity use my heart-less
I been bleeding inside
Im internally damaged
Gettin hard for me focus its harder to manage
Long days don't see the rewards
And I been going for broke
I put my last on the line til I don't see it no more
People doubt you on the daily have you questioning shit
Marathon not a race rest in to peace to nip
I gotta different type of vision now
It was blurry but the picture gettin clearer now
I forgave and release
I adapt and improved
Man Im better than ever just providing the truth
Look what I became
But never changed for no material shit
I tried a couple pairs on but the shoe never fit
Walk around in circles
Just a nigga with dreams
And I know drugs crates profit I wanna be clean
Legit living
Picture vivd
Its a lot different colors
Completed puzzle
No pieces missing
Whoever thought that I can make it this far
Crabs tried to pull me down made it harder to start
Daddy taking off like MJ at the line
In 88 no slam dunk I'm taking off with the rhymes
Im taking off like MJ at the line
In 88 no slam dunk im taking off with the rhymes
OUTRO - Daughter talking
I love you daddy
I love you moe soooo much
Your the best
Daddy what you doing
Why you always writing
Here you go again
Thats all you fuckin do is you work all day
And then you come home and sit at this fuckin table all night writing raps
For what
Like its not getting you anywhere
We got DISCONNECTION notice
After DISCONNECTION notice

Fuck this shit Ricki
Fuck this shit

Nigga you need to be writing yo name on a fucking job application
Get a REAL fuckin job
Working all these fuckin hours and they ain't paying you nothing
