[Intro]

Yeah

This shit gon' change for the better

Shit gon' change for the better

[Verse 1]

I've been searching for balance, in need of a challenge

I used to sleep in a dungeon, I used to sleep in The Palace

Used to sleep in The Palace, I'm the reason for madness

I'm a vulnerable being I'm too concerned with my status

I used to live up in Houston, still got niggas in Dallas

My first impression was horrid, pardon the voices I panicked

Take a look at what happened, look at all of the damage

I may suffer from malice but please don't call me a savage

I said I'd write you a song, instead I wrote you a ballad

You said you'd paint me a picture but you burnt holes in the canvas

I remember the threats, I remember the talk

I remember the hoes, I remember it all

Niggas brought in figures when I had my back on the wall

Now-a-days they acting like it ain't ever happened at all

I'm with Lantz every night, man that nigga's a beast

See La Fleur ain't shit unless he on a beat

I came back to the city 'gain I sleep at Ronnie's

Had to stay on his couch but nigga I couldn't sleep

First recorded in Scarborough then ended in Markham

With all of the talking at Tona's apartment

We walked to the station, got on the subway

Then hopped in a cab just to mob at the Thompson

Man those were the days

Looking back at the pictures I'm feeling the change

Toshy was good had no scratch on his face

(Quince) in school, he was beasting them grades

But y'all remember when Toshy got bottled at Cobra

Then I got arrested for sleeping at Tona's

I met up with (Derek) and (Quincy) at Ace

Saw the look on they face and they said I'll be straight

Man they said I'll be straight

Funny how shit changed

Wait

See I was searching for balance, disregarded my talent

I had some showers in April, in May we moved in The Palace

Begging bitches to come, in the kitchen, no speakers

Our first party was what, Becka, Tisha and Meesha

But then your boy started poppin', send a text girls be flockin'

Afterparty at our crib, man the neighbours were knocking

We made your summer the best, don't forget, don't forget us

At The Palace 202, 202, where you met us

And then I met Drew in June, made him join the platoon

Niggas thought he was trouble, he had some screws missing loose

Boy he partied, he partied, started losing the shit

But that's my guy 'til I'm gone, it hurt me most when we split

But shit done changed in a year (Yeah)

I've been quiet of it all but you know I had to make it all clear

Yeah

But just know I'm wishing you well

I'm wishing you well

With all the success in the world, and all of the help

Cause you 'gon need some help

Just know that I'll see you in hell

Hate on Jacuzzi for now, but he'll see you in hell

You gon' need the help, see you in hell

So searching for balance, in need of a challenge

Thank you for coming, but this is the end of this album

[Bridge 1]

She said you can't be afraid, the world is your stage

Don't lose your trumpet baby, just play it your way

You can't be afraid, the world is your stage

Don't lose your trumpet baby, just play it your way

Play it your way

[Closing]

Don't count me out but just leave me out of your bullshit

Don't count me out but just leave me out of your bullshit

Don't count me out but just leave me out of your bullshit

Don't count me out but just leave me out of your bullshit

[Bridge 2]

I'm wishing you well, I'm wishing you well

For all of my haters, I'll see you in hell

Wishing you well, I'm wishing you well

You gon' need the help, hate on Jacuzzi I'll see you in hell
