BE LEGIT



No one is real,
We all have a dual face.
  Find someone who can,
Excite your taste.

  People respect money,
Not the person.
  Money is the,
 Beast of Burden.

  The one you love more,
Is the one that can,
hurt you the most.
  The rest of your life,
You live with her ghost.

  When you're happy,
You enjoy the melody.
  Life is full of fun and
Prosperity.

  When you're sad,
You feel the lyrics.
  You get shit from
The critics.

  Patience is hard when
You have nothing.
  Alone with your thoughts,
It is something.

  Check your attitude,
When you have everything.
  It's often assassination,
That kills the king.

  People want good looks,
They don't want good people.
  Most times their intentions
Are mean and evil.

  Failure slaps you out
In the open.
  It floods you with,
Anger and emotion.

  Success hugs you
In private.
  It’s true,
You can't deny it.

  A poor person,
He has no fake friends.
  He has no money,
To give or to spend.

When the time comes,
Own your shit.
Lay it on the line,
Be legit.
