Far Alone - G-Eazy | feat. E-40 & Jay Ant

Trying to know what the future holds But it ain't for you to know I treat my self like the usual But it ain't for you to know I fear and fear, never losin' hope But it ain't for you to know Tell myself like usual But it ain't for you to know Sometimes I gotta be dolo alone, just walkin' around Young Gerald, young Charlie Brown Some shit's better to keep to yourself than say aloud Some shit you see and they don't, so I simply jot it down It was written, had the vision as a youth that I would make it here one day A flight to the top, cop a one-way But looking out the window on the subway, 16, slapping Mac Dre Somehow I always knew it'd be that way I felt this so clear it's like a rode a time machine and I saw it I paint the picture and draw it, I fold it up in my wallet Keep it with me everywhere I go just as a reminder Told myself every time I get discouraged or tired I got greatness inside of me I go against the greats until they tired of me I've heard it all, nothing surprises me See, I'm the one, I'm the anomaly But never mind me, I'll just be up over here killing 'em quietly You know? Trying to know what the future holds But it ain't for you to know I treat my self like the usual But it ain't for you to know I fear and fear, never losin' hope But it ain't for you to know Tell myself like usual But it ain't for you to know Yeah, and I heard 'em say Nothing's ever promised, tomorrow or today From the Bay Like 40 & Dre So Imma do it in a major way I said, I heard 'em say Nothing's ever promised, tomorrow or today From the Bay Like 40 & Dre Chasing dreams, it's the only way I'm still here, remember these lyrics And when I'm dead and gone, I'll be there in spirit Don't let 'em run my name in the mud, don't let 'em smear it Just pour some Rossi out, go ahead and tear it One of a kind, no copy Tell your grandchildren's children 'bout me Tell 'em I was the illest Let 'em know I spit the realest Went from pennies and nickels to large amounts Kept it in the hood, where it counts Never was them, always was him Had to prove myself, time and time again Just when they thought it was it, he back with another hit We brought the Bay to the rest of the world (who was it?) E-40 & Gerald Trying to know what the future holds But it ain't for you to know I treat my self like the usual But it ain't for you to know I fear and fear, never losin' hope But it ain't for you to know Tell myself like usual But it ain't for you to know So where I go from here? I did the most you could possibly pack into a year Now I can either fall off and completely disappear Or, I can move up to the highest tier Conversations with Gerald, standing in front the mirror Ask myself like "Fuck the bullshit, what you really fear?" We all want to be understood, hope they hear us clear But that shit never happens everywhere So I just do me on my "fuck the world" shit I'm riding through the town listening to Earl's shit Been trying to lift the Bay up, I could probably curl it I learn from the legends, they tell me "you're it" So I always maintain and try to stay sane But, just do you, give a fuck what they sayin' We artists are all alike, we feel the same pain You want the whole world? You want the same thing Trying to know what the future holds But it ain't for you to know I treat my self like the usual But it ain't for you to know I fear and fear, never losin' hope But it ain't for you to know Tell myself like usual But it ain't for you to know
