Striving for Perfection Lyrics

"No disrespect, but for real I'm tired of this shit"
"Aight, word, aight I'ma set it"
"Let's get it, fuck it, let's get it, tell me how you feel, man"
"Yo son, check the fly shit son"
"Sup, cousin, how you doin'?"
"Yo, baby, check it man, I got a new connect son, for real, man
Fuck all this twenty for a brick shit, man" (no doubt)
"My man got out of state for fifteen" (yeah)
"You know what I'm saying?"
"Yo, you know my man's and 'em is in VA they politickin' to death"
"Right, right, right"
"So it's all good, what's up? What you wanna do?"
"God, God, we gotta move God, we gotta move God, we gotta migrate
Get the f-, get the fuck outta New York, you know what I'm sayin'?
Bounce man, start fuckin' with bigger and better shit, man"
"So you tellin' me no more big eights, strictly bricks"
"No more, no more, no more, man"
"Then I'm with you, I been waitin'"
"No more, God"
"What's up?"
"It's a pot of gold right here, man
This is it man, this is glory, you know what I'm sayin'?
"So yo, the first thing we gotta do, man
Is just know what we gonna do with this cream when we get it, man" (right)
"'Cause I'm not tryna just be, sittin' on motherfuckin' two-hundred thou'" (right)
"And acting like I'ma just be a drug dealer all my life, son" (nah, nah)
"I got bigger and better plans, son"
"No doubt, we gonna move on, man"
"And you know I be fucking with anybody, man"
"Son, long as the love and the trust is there, son
We gon' grow, God" (you know-, yo, Tony)
"We gon' grow like a plant, son" (yo, you comin' at me like that, son?)
"For real son, come on you know me, man" (you know my style, son)
"You know how my heart feels though, God" (no doubt)
"But yo, God, for real, this is my last time, God
I'm hangin' this shit up, man, if this shit don't work right here, God"
"Word up, I feel the same way, I feel the same way kid" (you know what I'm sayin'?)
"Yo, God, you know what I'm sayin'?
When I got shot at, man, my mom's windows got shot the fuck up, man" (yeah)
"Yo God, my baby's in here God, see I gotta take the time, man
And raise my family, man" (yeah, yeah, yeah)
"You know what I'm sayin'? Sit around man, my grandkids, man"
"But yo son, it's like this man
We all living, man, we here now, man"
"Word, man"
"You know what I'm sayin'?
Let's not think like we gon' be stagnatin', man
Let's keep moving ahead, man
Keep our head up man
Take care of our families, man"
"God, word is bond, I'm your eyes that's in back of you kid"
"Let's do it"

"No disrespect, but for real I'm tired of this shit"
"Aight, word, aight I'ma set it"
