Issues

Yo what up ya'll, it's your boy Jadakiss and I'm tuned in with the homie Broadway
All the way from Y-O to Connecticut
We taking care of any issues ya niggas got
Sick of niggas talking that shit, and ain't never pulling up on a nigga
You na'mean anything you got with me nigga say it to my face
Ayo Broadway talk to these fake niggas because they need to hear, some real shit from a real one
Let's get it, ha ha

Swear to god it's hard being real, trying to deal with the fake shit
Nowadays the love synthetic, gotta see what it's laced with
Trying to make my way out the jungle, far away from them snake pits
On my grind, been on a climb, and they don't wanna see me make it
Swear to god it's hard being real, trying to deal with the fake shit
Nowadays the love synthetic, gotta see what it's laced with
Trying to make my way out the jungle, far away from them snake pits
On my grind, been on a climb, and they don't wanna see me make it

Forever changing that's evolution
What's a plan without execution
Sitting still is no solution
Can't stop so I keep it moving
Speed bumps but I'm still cruising
Seeing clear through the confusion
Been hot, it's been proven
Death to all of that noise pollution
I'm doing me, true indeed, got hella paper to get
Been living fast, foot on the gas, and ain't no brakes in this bitch
I been going hard with no regards to who be hating and shit
Cause even when I got my bounce going I be saying some shit
Ya'll best listen up, the jig is up, I see through all of them tricks
Stay to myself when chasing wealth, gotta stay up outta the mix
Went from the bricks to the sticks, I done hit a couple of licks
Been had the juice, ain't need a boost to hit a couple of flips
Been on the other side of that table, but was able to make it switch
Went from have not, to have a lot, but a long way from being rich
Some would say there's no reward if you ain't taking a risk
And I believe that that there's legit
That's why I'll never quit

Long way from who I was, still got a long way to go
Hit the tracks, no turning back, this train puffing out smoke
Climb up from the bottom, nobody threw me a rope
I stand out with no handouts, I do this shit on my own
I play it cool, 'til you play a fool, and have me feeling provoked
Keep intact cause I keep the strap, this thing here ain't for show
Broadway trust nobody, that's why I stay on the low
Seen hugs turn to back stabs and friends turn into foes
I'm the rose that grew from concrete, in the darkness where you hardly, can see but hear your heartbeat, pounding, loudly
Proudly, I stand tall
Rooted, I can't fall
Truth is, I'm past ya'll
Stay zooted like blast off
Got a bad cough, but it's weed related
Got a few don't wanna see me make it
Can't wait but I'm still patient
Really hate when my time's wasted
Mind's racing, can't lose it
Been through it, bad bruises
Sometimes you just gotta face the music
Fuck you think I been doing
