Why does it gotta be so damn tough




















So does our success. Your light enables them to see the contours of their own prison, their own self-limitations. But if they are truly the great people you always believed them to be, their jealousy will evolve, and soon their imagination might hop its fence, and it will be their turn to change for the better. Think of your small accomplishments as kindling. You light that, and then add small sticks and bigger sticks before you feed your tree stump into the blaze. To exist in this world, we must contend with humiliation, broken dreams, sadness, and loss.

If it was raining, I would go run. Whenever it started snowing, my mind would say, Get your fucking running shoes on. Sometimes I wussed out and had to deal with it at the Accountability Mirror. But facing that mirror, facing myself, motivated me to fight through uncomfortable experiences, and, as a result, I became tougher.

And being tough and resilient helped me meet my goals. Tell the truth about the real reasons for your limitations and you will turn that negativity, which is real, into jet fuel. Those odds stacked against you will become a damn runway! My girl a superstar all from a home movie. Bow on our arrival - the un-American idols.

What niggas did in Paris, got 'em hanging off the Eiffel. Yeah I'm talking business, we talking CIA. I'm talking George Tenet, I seen him the other day. He asked me about my Maybach, think he had the same.

Except mine tinted and his might have been rented. You know white people get money, don't spend it. Or maybe they get money, buy a business. I rather buy 80 gold chains and go ign'ant. I know Spike Lee gon' kill me, but let me finish.

Blame it on the pigment, we living no limits. Them gold Master P ceilings was just a figment. Now I'm looking at a crib right next to where TC lives. That's Tom Cruise, whatever she accuse. He wasn't really drunk he just had a frew brews. Pass the refreshments, a cool, cool beverage. Everything I do need a news crew's presence. Speedboat swerve, homie watch out for the waves. I'm way too black to burn from sun rays. So I just meditate at the home in Pompeii. About how I could build a new Rome in one day.

Everytime I'm in Vegas they screaming like he's Elvis. But I just wanna design hotels and nail it. Like Bar Refaeli, or Gisele - no, that's Brazilian. Went through, deep depression when my momma passed.

That if you look at my life I guess he's talking back. What you doin' in the club on a Thursday? She say she only here for her girl birthday.

They ordered champagne but still look thirsty. I turnt the nightclub out of the basement. I'll turn the plane 'round, your ass keep complainin'. Dutty wining 'round all these Jamaicans. This that what-we-do-don't-tell-your-mom shit. Got a fresh cut, straight out the salon, bitch. After that, give you somethin' to drink.

Step back, can't get spunk on the mink. I mean damn, what would Jeromey Romey Romey Rome think? Okay, I don't remember where we first met. But hey, admittin' is the first step. And hey, you know ain't nobody perfect. And I know, with the hoes I got the worst rep. But hey, their backstroke I'm tryna perfect. And hey, ayo, we made it: Thanksgivin'.

So hey, maybe we can make it to Christmas. She asked me what I wished for on my wishlist. Have you ever asked your bitch for other bitches? Maybe we could still make it to the church steps. But first, you gon' remember how to forget.

Coke on her black skin made it stripe like a zebra. Just roll the weed up until I get me some. No sins as long as there's permission. So never fuck nobody without telling me. Thinking 'bout the girl in all leopard. Who was rubbing the wood like Kiki Shepard.

Two tattoos: one read "No Apologies". The other said "Love is Cursed by Monogamy". It's something that the pastor don't preach. It's something that a teacher can't teach. When we die, the money we can't keep. But we probably spend it all cause the pain ain't cheap.

She get under your skin if you let her. I don't even want to talk about it. I'd be worried if they said nothing. I want to wake up with you in my beautiful morning. Clean water was only served to the fairer skin. Doin' clothes you would have thought I had help. But they wasn't satisfied unless I picked the cotton myself. That's that "Don't touch anything in the store".

That's that "Come in, please buy more". Fur coat? A diamond chain? All you blacks want all the same things". Used to only be niggas, now everybody playin'.

Spendin' everything on Alexander Wang. I'm 'bout to wild the fuck out. Y'all throwin' contracts at me. Y'all niggas can't fuck with me. Y'all niggas can't fuck with 'Ye. I'll move my family out the country.

See they'll confuse us with some bullshit. See that's that privately owned prison. Now what the fuck they gon' say now? It's been racin' since the summertime. Now I'm holdin' down the summer now. And all I want is what I can't buy now. Cause I ain't got the money on me right now. So I'mma need a little more time now. Thought you'd be different 'bout it.

Let's take it back to the first party. And you was screamin' that you love me. We could've ugh, we could've been somebody. It's like I don't even know ya. I gotta bring it back to the 'nolia. To all my second string bitches, try and get a baby. Trying to get a baby, now you talkin' crazy. I don't give a damn if you used to talk to Jay Z. She Instagram herself like BadBitchAlert. He Instagram his watch like MadRichAlert.

Two-thousand-dollar bag with no cash in your purse. Now you sittin' courtside, wifey on the other side. Gotta keep 'em separated, I call that apartheid. Then she said she impregnated, that's the night your heart died. Then you gotta go and tell your girl and report that. Main reason cause your pastor said you can't abort that. Now your driver say that new Benz you can't afford that. All that cocaine on the table you can't snort that.

That goin' to that owin' money that the court got. All in on that alimony, uh, yeah-yeah, she got you homie, yeah. They see a black man with a white woman. At the top floor they gone come to kill King Kong. Came to see me in my black skin black. Number one question they're askin'. Fuck every question you askin' black. If I don't get ran out by Catholics black. These niggas ain't doin' shit black. You niggas ain't breathin', you gaspin'.

These niggas ain't ready for action. They smile in my face is what I don't like. They steal your whole sound, that's a soundbite. The media crucify me like they did Christ.

They want to find me not breathing like they found Mike. A girl'll run her mouth only out of spite. But I never hit a woman never in my life. I was in too deep like Mekhi Phife'. In that pussy so deep I could have drowned twice. Rose gold Jesus piece with the brown ice. Eating good, vegetarian with the brown rice. Girls kissing girls, cause it's hot, right? But unless they use a strap-on then they not dykes. They ain't about that life, they ain't about that life. We hanging out that window it's about to be a Suge night.

Shoutout to Derrick Rose, man that nigga nice. Chief Keef, King Louie, this is Chi, right? The best living or dead hands down, huh. And my eyes more red than the devil is. And I'm about to take it to another level, bitch. Do the rap and the track, triple double no assists. And my only focus is staying on some bogus shit. Arguing with my older bitch, acting like I owe her shit. I heard that people sing raps to give the track pain. Bought the chain that always give me back pain.

Fucking up my money so yeah I had to act sane. Chi nigga but these hoes love my accent. If you wanna make your 1 your 2 now". Mix that Goose and Malibu I call it "Malibooyah". Goddamn, Yeezy, how he hit them with a new style? Know that motherfucker well: "What you gonna do now? Whatever I want to do. It's cool now". Know I'm gonna do, ah, it's the new now. Think you motherfuckers really really need to cool out. Cause you'll never get on top of this.

So mommy, best advice is just to get on top of this. Now she claiming that I bruised her esophagus. Head of the class and she just won a swallowship. I'm living in the future so the present is my past. Shoppin' for the winter and it's just May, nigga. Ball so hard, man, this shit cray, nigga. And you ain't gettin' money 'less you got eight figures. For that Jesus piece, man, I've been saved, nigga. Just talked to Farrakhan, that's sensei, nigga. Told him I've been on ten since the 10th grade, nigga.

Got a middle finger longer than Dikembe, my nigga, uh. I don't let 'em talk to me no kind of way. Uh, they better watch what they say to me. Niggas still gettin' popped on the day to day.

Yeah, I still got the hundred with the small face, nigga. Might spend 50 racks on my off day, nigga. You a fake Denzel like the Allstate nigga. If you run into me, better have Allstate with yah. If you ain't with us, you in our way, nigga. You an actor, you should be on Broadway, nigga. Cause you do shit the broad way, nigga.

Your bitch got a ass, but my broad way thicker. Late for the class, in the hallway, nigga. Yeah, the dropout at it as always nigga, as always. I could do this all day, boy, I'm finna turn this bitch out. They need that Ye in the streets, boy, there's been a mothafuckin' drought. Don't really matter what I make, boy, you know I still go wild. Like a light skinned slave, boy, we in the mothafuckin' house!

Right now, you lookin' real sus right now. I swear I've been on this flight like a month right now. Stupid niggas gettin' money, Forrest Gump right now. Shout-out to Jackie Chan, I need to stunt right now.

They've been lookin' at the Gram, I've been lookin' at the Grammys. Niggas lookin' at me like I'm worth both MJs. People saying, "Ye, Ye, take it easy". Niggas do the most and they ain't done shit. Hurt him bad, people get divorced for that. Soon as they like you make 'em unlike you. Cause kissin' people ass is so unlike you. So here's a few hatin'-ass niggas to fight you. And here's a few snake-ass niggas to bite you. And I don't even wanna hear 'bout what niggas might do. Old niggas mentally still in high school.

Since the tight jeans they ain't never liked you. Pink-ass polos with a fuckin' backpack. But everybody know you brought real rap back. Monop' in this bitch again, changed the climate. Hop in this bitch again, same thing I'm in. Until the day I get struck by lightning. I said, "Shit I'm chillin'. For all my Southside niggas that know me best.

I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. I made that bitch famous God damn. For all the girls that got dick from Kanye West. If you see 'em in the streets give 'em Kanye's best. They mad they ain't famous God damn. They mad they're still nameless Talk that talk, man.

Her man in the store tryna try his best. But he just can't seem to get Kanye fresh. I be Puerto Rican day parade floatin'. She in school to be a real estate agent. Last month I helped her with the car payment.

I just copped a jet to fly over personal debt. And my sheets still orange from your spray tan. It was more than soft porn for the K-man. She remember my Sprinter, said "I was in the grape van". Uhm, well cutie, I like your bougie booty. Come Erykah Badu me, well, let's make a movie. Hell, you know my repertoire is like a wrestler. I show you the ropes, connect the dots. Now it's Denny's, 4 in the morning, spoil your appetite. Liquor pouring and niggas swarming your section with erection.

Smoke in every direction, middle finger pedestrians. This shit unanimous for you, it's damaging for you, I think. That pussy should only be holding exclusive rights to me, I mean.

He flew you in this motherfucker on first class. Even went out his way so you could check in an extra bag. Now you wanna divide the yam like it equate the math? That shit don't add up, you're making him mad as fuck. She said she came out here to find an A-list rapper. I said baby, spin that round and say the alphabet backwards.

You're dealing with malpractice, don't kill a good nigga's confidence. Just cause he a nerd and you don't know what a condom is. The head still good though, the head still good though. Make me say "Nam Myoho Renge Kyo". Make a nigga say big words and act lyrical. Make me believe in miracles, Buddhist monks and Cap'n Crunch cereal.

Lord have mercy, thou will not hurt me. Five buddies all herded up on a Thursday. Bottle service, head service, I came in first place. The opportunity, the proper top of breast and booty cheek. The pop community, I mean these bitches come with union fee. And I want two of these, moving units through consumer streets. Then my shoe released, she was kicking in gratuity. She said K Lamar, you kind of dumb to be a poet. I'mma put you on game for the lames that don't know they're a rookie.

Instagram is the best way to promote some pussy. Friday night tryna make it into the city. Breakneck speeds, passenger seat something pretty. Thinking back to how I got here in the first place. Second class bitches wouldn't let me on first base. A backpack nigga with luxury taste buds. And the Louis Vuitton store, got all of my pay stubs. Got pussy from beats I did for niggas more famous.

When did I become A list? I wasn't even on a list. Strippers get invited to where they only get hired. When I get on my Steve Jobs, somebody gon' get fired. I was uninspired since Lauryn Hill retired. And 3 Stacks, man, you preach it to the choir. Any rumor you ever heard about me was true and legendary. I done got Lewinsky and paid secretaries. For all my niggas with babies by bitches. Not knowing the disconnect from the father. The next generation will be the real victims. I remember Amber told my boy no matter what happens she ain't going back to Philly.

Back to our regularly scheduled programmin'. But don't worry, this one's so jammin'. You know it, L. Mulholland Drive, need to put up some god damn barricades. The pressure, the problem ain't I be drivin'. My psychiatrist got kids that I inspired. First song they played for me was 'bout their friend that just died. Textin' and drivin' down Mulholland Drive. That's why I'd rather take the I be worried 'bout my daughter, I be worried 'bout Kim.

But Saint is baby 'Ye, I ain't worried 'bout him. I had my life threatened by best friends who had selfish intents. Ride around with a bulletproof car and some tints? Every agent I know, know I hate agents. I'm too black, I'm too vocal, I'm too flagrant. Something smellin' like shit, that's the new fragrance. It's just me, I do it my way, bitch. Some days I'm in my Yeezys, some days I'm in my Vans. If I knew y'all made plans I wouldn't have popped the Xans. I know some fans who thought I wouldn't rap like this again.

But the writer's block is over, emcees cancel your plans. A year-old 8-year-old with rich nigga problems. Tell my wife that I hate the Rolls so I don't never drive it. It took 6 months to get the Maybach all matted out. And my assistant crashed it soon as they backed it out.

God damn, got a bald fade, I might slam. Whole family gettin' money, thank God for E! I love rockin' jewelry, a whole neck full. Bitches say he funny and disrespectful. I feel like Pablo when I'm workin' on my shoes. I feel like Pablo when I see me on the news. I feel like Pablo when I'm workin' on my house. Tell 'em party's in here, we don't need to go out. We need the turbo thots, high speed, turbo thots. She brace herself and hold my stomach, good dick'll do that. She keep pushin' me back, good dick'll do that.

She push me back when the dick go too deep. This good dick'll put your ass to sleep. And as far as real friends, tell all my cousins I love 'em. Even the one that stole the laptop, you dirty motherfucker. Careless whispers, eye fuckin', bitin' ass.

Your pussy's too good, I need to crash. Your titties, let 'em out, free at last. We was up at the party but we was leavin' fast. Had to stop at 7-Eleven like I needed gas Ouh. I'm lyin', I needed condoms, don't look through the glass. Chasin' love, all the bittersweet hours lost. Eatin' Asian pussy, all I need was sweet and sour sauce. Tell your boss you need an extra hour off. Get you super wet after we turn the shower off.

Uh, she love different kinds of sex now. Put my fist in her like a civil rights sign. When it's over it's over". Yeezy, Yeezy, Yeezy, I feel so accomplished. I done talked a lot of shit but I just did the numbers. Herzog and Adidas, man you know they love it. If Nike ain't have Drizzy, man they wouldn't have nothin', woo! If Nike ain't have Don C, man they wouldn't have nothin', ooh! But I'm all for the family, tell 'em, "Get your money".

Yeezy, Yeezy, Yeezy, they line up for days. Nike out here bad, they can't give shit away. I stuck to my roots, I'm like Jimmy Fallon. I ain't dropped the album but the shoes went platinum Woo! Every time I talk they say I'm too aggressive. That's fine. I mean, you're sittin' on a winnin' lottery ticket.

And you're too much of a pussy to cash it in, and that's bullshit. So would any of these fuckin' guys. It'd be an insult to us if you're still here in 20 years. Hangin' around here is a fuckin' waste of your time. You got a lady now? Will: Yeah, I went on a date last week. Sean: How'd it go? Will: Fine. Sean: Well, are you going out again? Will: I don't know. Sean: Why not? Will: Haven't called her. Sean: Jesus Christ, you are an amateur. Will: I know what I'm doing. She's different from the other girls I met.

We have a really good time. She's smart, beautiful, fun Sean: So Christ, call her up. Will: Why? So I can realize she's not so smart.

That she's boring. You don't get it. Right now she's perfect, I don't want to ruin that. Sean: And right now you're perfect too. Maybe you don't want to ruin that. Well, I think that's a great philosophy Will, that way you can go through your entire life without ever having to really know anybody.

My wife used to turn the alarm clock off in her sleep. I was late for work all the time because in the middle of the night she'd roll over and turn the damn thing off. Eventually I got a second clock and put it under my side of the bed, but it got to where she was gettin' to that one too.

She was afraid of the dark, so the closet light was on all night. Thing kept me up half the night. Eventually I'd fall asleep, out of sheer exhaustion and not wake up when I was supposed to cause she'd have already gotten to my alarms.

My wife's been dead two years, Will. And when I think about her, those are the things I think about most. Little idiosyncrasies that only I knew about. Those made her my wife. And she had the goods on me too. Little things I do out of habit. People call these things imperfections Will. It's just who we are. And we get to choose who we're going to let into out weird little worlds.

You're not perfect. And let me save you the suspense, this girl you met isn't either. The question is, whether or not you're perfect for each other. You can know everything in the world, but the only way you're findin' that one out is by giving it a shot. You sure won't get the answer from an old fucker like me. And even if I did know, I wouldn't tell you. Will: Why not? You told me every other fuckin' thing. You talk more than any shrink I ever met.

Sean: I teach this shit, I didn't say I knew how to do it. Will: You ever think about gettin' remarried? Sean: My wife's dead.

Will: Hence, the word remarried. Will: Well I think that's a wonderful philosophy, Sean. That way you can go through the rest of your life without having to really know anyone. Sean: Time's up. Will: What? Sean: Do you have a soul-mate? Will: Define that. Sean: Someone who challenges you in every way. Who takes you places, opens things up for you. A soul-mate.

Will: Yeah. Will: Not to me, they're not. Sean: But you can't give back to them, Will. You'll never have that kind of relationship in a world where you're afraid to take the first step because all you're seeing are the negative things that might happen ten miles down the road. Sean: So you're the one. Sean: What? Do I wonder if I'd be better off if I never met my wife?

No, that's okay. It's an important question. And you can fail, as long as you're trying hard. But there's nothing worse than regret. Will: You don't regret meetin' your wife? Sean: Why? Because of the pain I feel now?

I have regrets Will, but I don't regret a single day I spent with her. Will: When did you know she was the one? Sean: October 21, Game six of the World Series.

Biggest game in Red Sox history.
