Be Your Own Man Envelope (Ft. Blueprint & Illogic)

[Intro] [Envelope]
Hehe. I overcame a speech impediment
People don't know that about me man. Crippling speech impediment

[Verse One] [Envelope]
My nana
Told me these words one time
There are no, shortcuts in life
And I don't ever wanna hear that came to your surprise
If you made something wrong you better work to right
From that first breath your lungs, gasp to hold
To that, last moment when your casket closed
There is, one principle you have to know
If you never worked for it, you never had your own
Now I ain't tryin' to hear cats about keepin' it real
I keep it true that's how I keep my appeal
Sometimes my shit is stupid or deep in the field
I'm still conscious, of every word I speak for real
Don't know what you're sayin', I ain't got no bitch
She's a woman, better watch your lip
To that boy and girl that got a relationship
If you ain't got trust then you ain't got shit
And most definitely then, you got's to chill
But who the fuck am I?
Doctor Phil?
Shit, I'm not man, your mom's for real
Just a middle class kid that's got a skill
