FMOV - Mann

You ever heard the phrase

«The First Shall be Last, The Last shall be first»?

Thats just the way it works

Living on this earth, for twenty long years

Just now realizing the reason I’m here

Whats the word, huh?

Is it money?

Is it Power?

Papers or Blunts?

Roll one, twist up, problems ignore them

It can get exhausting

Ive been working non stop, I get sick often

My moms miss me, and my girl supports me but…

She be tripping, because she don’t get to see me much

My dad hits me up, more than ever now

Family coming around, that was never 'round

Was 19, balling with the big dogs

Raw talented kid with big hit songs

Anticipated, what you’ve been waiting on

A lot to say and this project what I’mma say it on

Freshman On Varsity

Never taking no days off

Just waiting for my plane to take off (I feel like)

Man I can’t wait til it pays of

Til then I’m just playing in Play off’s (I feel Like)

Varsity, Im on Varsity Im on Varsity (I feel like)

Im repping for our City, for our City, for our city (I feel like)

A Freshmann on Varsity (I feel like)

A Freshmann on Varsity (I feel like)

A Freshmann on Var…

In the zone, mixed feeling about being on

Is it worth what comes with it, is this really what I want

Do I want to be at home or do I want to be on the road

In all these studios, chilling with these groupie hoes

Who truly Knows?

I do, that answer is «Oh Yump»

How is that not what a west LA nigga don’t want?

Don’t front, I would be crazy not to

Try to understand please baby I got you

Its not YOU, I’m just not super human

Im still trying to figure out what I’m doing

This is so new to me baby

I need you to promise to stay true to me baby

I got you

The young Man doing the impossible

Making sure my future is prosperous and profitable

Im sorry if I’m putting all of my problems on you

This is just some of the shit that I be going through

This ain’t no typical rapper shit

Dont feel bad for him, I ain’t get famous on accident

I asked for this, and don’t regret asking for it

I got an expensive habit need a lot of cash to support it

But I would only be giving half of the story

If I didn’t mention what I go through half of the time

I consider this an art, took a while mastering mine

I get so wrapped up being Mann its hard to Get Back to Dijon, Uh

Forgetting to let my momma know when my plane landed

Im so damn independent and she can’t stand it

Growing up leaving her alone Momma I ain’t plan this

But I’m working to get you everything you wanted on this planet

Just know thats the goal momma

Restored honor to my supposed to be role models

But they wasn’t to my cousins who lost your momma

Big Cousin gone put all ya’ll through college, I promise

And Thats why

Mann, a name given to me because of the characteristics I had as a kid

For as long as I can remember I’ve been told I carry myself like I’ve been here

before

Or I was told I was ahead of my time, shit I was just being me

Walking in my purpose, Acknowledging that I was here for a reason

Some say I’m just hard working, some say they see it in me before I even open

my mouth to speak

Whatever it is, I thank god for it everyday.
