Mark Battles Don T Tell Lyrics
Don't Tell by Mark Battles
I will just let the
Let the beat talk to you for a second
Just take it all in
Look, look
Get on Instagram, see my old chick a stripper now
She different now and everybody say she get around
But it's cool, I ain't judging you
Gotta pay them bills, respect your hustle, boo, it's nothing new
One of few, two of many, should've known from all the naked pictures you were sending
Feeling empty, was it my fault?
Maybe I made you too comfortable, those are my thoughts
My mind lost, your guy, how much does time cost
Can I get another 10 'fore I die off?
'Cause tomorrow ain't promised
Went to record when I could've went to college
Now we the big three and none of us is Chris Bosh'in
Quit joshin', honest, I'm just rhyming on the beat
And you think that I'm a visionary?
Little do you know, the mean life getting scary
Losing faith, half my heart is in the cemetery
Question why we here, trying to handle stress
Will it ever disappear?
Failure to my children is the only thing I fear
Return to cloud 9 when I hear my fans cheer
Ain't a thing, two years ago I had to wash up in a sink
No hot water, it was cold enough to drink
Two pair of pants, take 'em off when they stink
When they stink
Lived in a studio for 6 months
Me and my girl on the couch and she ain't tripped once
Couldn't count how many times we had to skip lunch
Always searching for some change I could dig up
Living off one meal a day
Those are memories that I wanna seal away
I'm never going back to that, I promise you
I don't care what I gotta do
Don't doubt the heart of a man
Doing what I can just to market a plan
20 hour days then start up again
Work myself to death, going hard as I can
I can
Don't judge a man by his status or judge all his decisions
Haters always lurking, be observing from a distance
I'm serving out permission to further doubt my vision
So be of credit, why?
'Cause it motivate me
My son' mom pray he grow to hate me
I'm going crazy
You don't wanna save me
A different day, a different hotel
Let's get away and get a hotel
Pay for your hair and your nails
Oh well, just blow a kiss and don't tell
Oh well, just blow a kiss and don't tell
Don't tell, shh
Don't forget it
It ain't where you been, it's about where you headed
Where you headed
Where you headed
And you gotta keep it separate
Won't get to you less you let it
Unless you let it
Unless you let it
Let the beat talk to you for a second
Just take it all in
Look, look
Get on Instagram, see my old chick a stripper now
She different now and everybody say she get around
But it's cool, I ain't judging you
Gotta pay them bills, respect your hustle, boo, it's nothing new
One of few, two of many, should've known from all the naked pictures you were sending
Feeling empty, was it my fault?
Maybe I made you too comfortable, those are my thoughts
My mind lost, your guy, how much does time cost
