That's What I Do
Yeah
Uh
Feelin' kinda famous, yeah
That's what I do
I'm feelin' kinda famous in my hometown
People hold me up, 'cause I hold 'em down
I never moved away from my family
And got the same friends since elementary
You know the name and the style
But don't know what I have
'Cause in my circle of friends
The ones who posted and bragged
Ended up insecure, jealous of what others had
Glad I got raised a little different by my mother and dad
You know the name (That's what I do)
I was a skater and a jock
Always showing off
My role models were Wayne Gretzky and Tony Hawk
A 'c' student I was average at best
Till I found hip hop, put my attitude in check
Then I found my identity
Stopped caring about what anybody said to me
I make mine to hopefully help you out and deal with it right
That's what I do!
You know it's all been done before (That's what I do)
You know it's all been done before (That's what I did)
How many times I got to tell ya (That's what I did)
I'm doin' this with or without 'ya (That's what I do)
I went through all of it and back again (That's what I do)
That's what I do, no need to ask again (That's what I did)
And I ain't playing by the books I don't know how
I write my own story as it goes down
And you can either love me or hate me
No one cares about the ones who play it safely (That's what I do)
Even my manager parties more than I do
I usually leave the party by 2
Go get high and hit the drive through
I feelin' kinda old for this shit
But the kid inside of me don't know when to quit (That's what I do)
Huh, I bring the weed to the party cause of courteous
I started burnin' it, cause I was curious
Now marijuana is my reality
I know my limits, what I can and what I can't do
I understand myself so I don't underhand my health
It's sheer determination and true grit face it
Don't follow any path blaze it!
That's what I do!

Yeah and it's true
I'm just passionate about the way I write
But every now and then I need to take a break from this
Cause I can't even raise my kid or take a shit
Without attempted to create a hit (That's what I did)
My lifestyle ain't change since 19
And I'm still at the liquor store gettin' ID
With the same crew
J-Brew, IV and Mike B
Us losing touch highly unlikely (That's what I do)
Ask the wrong person I'ma has-been and done with
Ask the right person I'm a legend who runs shit
You either gonna love this or dump this
But all I can do is keep it 100
That's what I did!
