DON'T GIVE UP

I MAY NOT HAVE RICHES
BUT I'M STRONG IN MIND & SPIRIT
YOU MAY SPIT RAPS TO MAKE MONEY
BUT YOU'RE NOT FEARLESS
YOU BLEED JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE DOES
YOU TALK DOWN ON THE POOR TRYING TO
MAKE THEIR COME UP
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE DAY COMES
THE TABLES TURN
ALL THOSE MILLIONS YOU SPENT EM
NOW YOU'RE LOOKING LIKE A BUM
THE SAME ONE'S YOU TURNED YOUR BACK ON
AND CALLED THEM LAMES
THEY'LL BE THE ONES ON STAGE, THE CROWDS
SHOUTING THEIR NAMES
YOUR CAREER WILL BE OVER, YOU HAD A NICE RUN
NOW SIT BACK AND STAY QUIET YOUR GLORY DAYS
ARE DONE
SO THINK HARD THE NEXT TIME YOU SPITTING NEGATIVE RHYMES
THAT ISH IS LIKE KARMA IT COMES BACK IN DUE TIME
PEOPLE ARE PICKY, THEY GET BORED & FADS CHANGE EVERY YEAR
YOU'RE HOT ONE MINUTE AND THE NEXT YOU'RE LIKE STALE BEER
I'M A LISTENER, OBSERVER I'VE BEEN AROUND FOR YEARS SOME KNOW
ABOUT ME, OTHERS DON'T KNOW NOT TO FEAR.
I ONLY RESPECT THE GRINDERS PUTTING IN SWEAT MAKING RHYMES & BEATS
YOUR DAY WILL COME SOON ENOUGH, YOU ASK THE QUESTION WHEN
THE ANSWER IS THE STREETS!
SO WHEN YOU HEAR OTHER RAPPERS KNOWN & UNKNOWN BRAGGING ABOUT WHAT THEY HAVE, WHAT THEY'VE DONE, WHO THEY HAVE KNOWN
ALWAYS REMEMBER JUST LIKE A BEAUTY PAGEANT
EVERY YEAR SOMEONE NEW SITS ON THE THRONE!!!
