What do you think people see when they look at you?
Look
You see our gold chains and our flashy cars
I see a lack of self worth and I see battle scars
He has to be with twenty man when he wears jewelry
And you see it as gangster, I see it as insecurity
Where I'm from, everybody wants to make it out
But nobody wants to see somebody make it out
It ain't about who came around but more about who stayed around
Behind the scenes, they said God gave us eyes to see
You see the video vixens and all their pearly whites
But you don't see the dirty nights, long days and early flights
You see the deals and think all these rappers laughing now
But you don't get that if we weren't already, we're a target now
You see, all the groupie girls and think they're heaven sent
I see twenty-five minutes worth of empty sex
To tell a lie, it wasn't my intention to objectify
But I can testify, I've seen some shit you couldn't rectify
You see this industry where everybody came up
I see a bag of weird rappers and some fake love
Fake handshakes and fake spuds with fake comments
Where everybody covers costs but never pays homage
The scene turned on me, people tryna ruin me
Where most would see a problem, I'm seeing an opportunity
To drop a freestyle and kill them niggas that were booing me
I made my haters watch and put the screw inside of scrutiny
Beautifully, also, if I am attending
Security's coming first like I was trying to shop at Duty Free
Where the fuck's the unity?
Where I come from there's no class, forget truancy
We have got nowt in common
Them niggas see a molehill and make a mountain from it
They see a Cuban and a whip, I see a house deposit
How to stop it?
Niggas saw keys and went to trial for shottin'
I saw keys, learned to play, and made thousands from it
You see the club poppin' when we do the show
But you don't see the studio, my life is not a movie, bro
Champagne bottles and all the screaming girls
It's ironic how you'll never hear a scream for help
Fuckin' hell, why do you think we're going through the same thing?
Depression when you make it, the pressure and the hatred
Your people talk about you, you can't say shit
The moment that you ain't it
The labels are looking for replacements
Same shit, people start forgetting what you've done for them
Everyone in music's gonna take until there's nothing left
Your fans are switching up on you
And they don't know how tough it gets
Reading through your old comments, trying to feel some love again
I see karma
Go to work but God schemes harder
I heard success can come quickly but it leaves faster
Secrets are what my enemies have been after
Only L's I'm hiding in my closet have a V after
So looking at from another perspective, playing devil's advocate
Considering you know you're obviously becoming famous, so to speak
But you still deal with a lot of issues on a human level
Do you ever just sit and wonder about the stories behind the people you meet day by day?
Does it make you feel grateful, in a weird way, for your life and problems?
What do you think people see when they look at you?
Was glaubst du, sehen die Leute, wenn sie dich anschauen?
Look
Schau
You see our gold chains and our flashy cars

Und du siehst es als Gangster, ich sehe es als Unsicherheit
Where I'm from, everybody wants to make it out
Wo ich herkomme, will jeder es schaffen
But nobody wants to see somebody make it out
Aber niemand will sehen, dass jemand es schafft
It ain't about who came around but more about who stayed around
Es geht nicht darum, wer kam, sondern mehr darum, wer geblieben ist
Behind the scenes, they said God gave us eyes to see
Hinter den Kulissen, sie sagten, Gott gab uns Augen zum Sehen
You see the video vixens and all their pearly whites
Du siehst die Video-Vixen und all ihre perlweißen Zähne
But you don't see the dirty nights, long days and early flights
Aber du siehst nicht die schmutzigen Nächte, lange Tage und frühen Flüge
You see the deals and think all these rappers laughing now
Du siehst die Deals und denkst, all diese Rapper lachen jetzt
But you don't get that if we weren't already, we're a target now
Aber du verstehst nicht, dass wir, wenn wir es nicht schon waren, jetzt ein Ziel sind
You see, all the groupie girls and think they're heaven sent
Du siehst all die Groupie-Mädchen und denkst, sie sind vom Himmel gesandt
I see twenty-five minutes worth of empty sex

You see this industry where everybody came up
Du siehst diese Industrie, wo jeder aufgestiegen ist
I see a bag of weird rappers and some fake love

Wo die meisten ein Problem sehen, sehe ich eine Chance
To drop a freestyle and kill them niggas that were booing me
Einen Freestyle zu droppen und die Niggas zu töten, die mich ausgebuht haben
I made my haters watch and put the screw inside of scrutiny
Ich habe meine Hasser zuschauen lassen und die Schraube in die Prüfung gesteckt
Beautifully, also, if I am attending
Schön, auch, wenn ich teilnehme
Security's coming first like I was trying to shop at Duty Free
Die Sicherheit kommt zuerst, als würde ich versuchen, im Duty Free einzukaufen
Where the fuck's the unity?
Wo zum Teufel ist die Einheit?
Where I come from there's no class, forget truancy
Wo ich herkomme, gibt es keine Klasse, vergiss die Schulschwänzerei
We have got nowt in common
Wir haben nichts gemeinsam
Them niggas see a molehill and make a mountain from it

Champagne bottles and all the screaming girls
Champagnerflaschen und all die schreienden Mädchen
It's ironic how you'll never hear a scream for help
Es ist ironisch, wie du nie einen Hilfeschrei hörst
Fuckin' hell, why do you think we're going through the same thing?
Verdammt noch mal, warum denkst du, dass wir das Gleiche durchmachen?
Depression when you make it, the pressure and the hatred
Depression, wenn du es schaffst, der Druck und der Hass
Your people talk about you, you can't say shit
Deine Leute reden über dich, du kannst nichts sagen

Die Labels suchen nach Ersatz
Same shit, people start forgetting what you've done for them

Jeder in der Musik wird nehmen, bis nichts mehr übrig ist

Go to work but God schemes harder
Geh zur Arbeit, aber Gott plant härter
I heard success can come quickly but it leaves faster
Ich habe gehört, Erfolg kann schnell kommen, aber er geht schneller
Secrets are what my enemies have been after
Geheimnisse sind es, was meine Feinde suchen
Only L's I'm hiding in my closet have a V after
Die einzigen L's, die ich in meinem Schrank verstecke, haben ein V danach
So looking at from another perspective, playing devil's advocate
Also, wenn man es aus einer anderen Perspektive betrachtet, spielt man den Teufelsanwalt
Considering you know you're obviously becoming famous, so to speak
In Anbetracht dessen, dass du offensichtlich berühmt wirst, sozusagen
But you still deal with a lot of issues on a human level
Aber du hast immer noch mit vielen Problemen auf menschlicher Ebene zu kämpfen
Do you ever just sit and wonder about the stories behind the people you meet day by day?

De onde eu venho, todo mundo quer sair
But nobody wants to see somebody make it out
Mas ninguém quer ver alguém sair
It ain't about who came around but more about who stayed around
Não é sobre quem apareceu, mas mais sobre quem ficou
Behind the scenes, they said God gave us eyes to see
Por trás das cenas, eles disseram que Deus nos deu olhos para ver
