J. Capital - Self Preservation (feat. Ian Sean) Lyrics

I don't want to be carbon copied
So I'm caution when I'm cocky
Cause will niggaz Jack yo swagg like Sweat suit out swap meet
Lately I've rebranding
So my unborn born seed can have a feast off exactly what we planted
Who ever thought a notebook would Ever feed my family
Rap in itself gave me cultural Advantages
Touching every coast wit every Stroke upon these canvases
I can paint a picture of a starving Artist with average hits
A thousand more I probably can bag Me some actresses
Every cut get me close to where the Action is
My life a movie baby minus The budget
They forgot the role I played cuz I Never rap like I'mMumbling
And the only time I sing is in the shower
Playing in the purple rain till a prince Come into power
We never cowar
So never doubt us
The energy will take a molehill and Make a mountain
Standing on the summit like I'm Standing up for something
Cuz I don't wanna be another rapper Wit no publishing
Watching Dame Dash thinking Damn he on to something
These crackers taking everything and Leaving us with nothing
Our ignorance is bliss cuz we dying To be public
So Self preservation a question of Entertainment
The art is secondary they only wanna Be famous
Till they have a mental breakdown Realizing they ain't made it
That Kanye effect have em calling out For Yeezus
But Aint no answers at your Sunday Service niether
Hollerin out for freedom but give Away what'll liberate
It's never love if we don't see it in ya Own face
We all do
What we designed to do
Evolve spread
That would include the virus too
Supreme Sean never battle for Supremacy
Legit purpose I ain't worried bout Legacy
Art lives forever
As the music streams steadily
Gifts are given
But skills sold separately
Suppressing thoughts
Weighing on the shoulders heavily
I ain't big headed
Just don't see no one ahead me
Or maybe
I just take the way that's less paved
When trying break the net
You not worried bout net pay
Mad I ain't take the bait
Some things ain't for debate
Image a man
That can't do shit without manger
It's like get out
Getting spoon fed by your handlers
You been masquerade
I be thinking massacre
Turned holiday on they calendars
Prescription drugs
Calming down thugs we not wild Enough
Shit I be spitting put a smile pac
I bit of every best a jambalaya pot
They still shocked
Kill shot
Will not surrender
To defeats you never forget
To the wins I don't remember
Restless sometimes
Peace can't even enter
But you can never
Take away the piece that's at center
Just like hoes
Waiting someone to save em
All they know is self preservation
First ones in the lines for Vaccinations
