Blood spittin lyrics to the track but lately I just try to keep my faith in God Lately I ain't been writin my words, I just gotta try to spit it from the heart Lately I been goin through a thang, certain shit just ain't gon' change The biggest misconception is to think I'm happy just cause everybody know my name If you take a walk through my shoes maybe one day you could feel my blues In this game since '92, I just try to fuck 'em up cause I just hate to lose I done been through hell and back twice cause I wouldn't face the demons in my life Try so hard to love and leave ya but I constantly will go through drama with the wife Gotta ride and move on, pray for forgiveness for anything I did wrong Love her anyway so I just try to find different ways to express it through a song So many people try to bring me down, especially those I helped come up And some just tend to hate and wanna take but I got somethin for you if you run up Now I done shed blood sweat and tears and I been through so much drama through the years I think it's destiny for me to share with you right here at the peak of my career Before I ever walk across the stage, fuck if you ever thought that I was paid I gotta confess to you that I cry inside, this here is beyond the glory days
[Chorus] Beyond the glory, beyond the fame Beyond the passion, beyond the game Beyond the pressure, beyond the pain Might know my style, but don't know my name Tryin to corrupt, some prayin I fall Beyond the tears, I fought through it all Beyond the story, beyond the lies I will not change, cause THIS IS MY LIFE!
Tryin to travel with a strong soul, Lord knows it'd been a long road Granny's sick but shorty needs some shoes, momma hurtin, ain't no way I'm finna fold Why the house so cold? It was tough, I know we ain't have a lot of dust My momma always make sure we got enough, that's how we came from the bottom up G's up, hoes down, I got y'all to listen to the sound See me smilin when I'm signin autographs but sometimes inside I gotta frown Cause you ain't seen what I seen, been through what I been through, heard what I heard underneath the fame Sick of feelin by hurt and the pain, make me wanna go and do dirt with the thang No pain, no gain, before you rise, you must fall First "He ain't nothin," now I'm the shit, said "Fuck a Twist"? Fuck y'all! Ain't none of y'all niggaz give me my talent, it was God-given so I gotta use it One of the best but still I gotta prove it, spit the thug gospel to the rider music Flow unleashed, spit it like a beast and try to win, I just wanna get a piece Before I get it with a piece I just wanna hear the fans screamin, "Twista preach" Try to get rid of my worry ways, pray for more than forty nights and forty days Go in the booth and spit the truth and make you feel me, this is beyond the glory days
