What U Want & What U Need

Just let it breathe, when it's all said and done I'll go get it, girl what you need
There's a line between happiness and being blinded by greed
Can't be a real man if you don't nurture your seed
Can't be a real man give them the tools to succeed
Designer this, designer that, a man they can't even read
See there's a difference between what you want and what you need
See there's a difference between what you want and what you need

Fast cars, fast money, I've seen the allure
I've seen the signs, I've seen the pattern, I've seen it before
Mum saying come home, quick detour
The look on her face when I step through the front door
Man I remember it all, cold nights in the park, doing nothing at all
It was the bonds that we made, just on a weekend crusade
With just learning life, growing up and trying to get paid
My nan used to say, your school days are your best days
Wish I'd listened and implemented some of them chess plays
Knew it was written but wasn't looking in the right ways
Yeah they call me Carlos but I ain't one of them essays
Them boy talking shit, what they talking bout
Them boys know I'm lit, and we can't talk it out I really do, what I say in my raps
These other brothers, they're just talking in caps
Yeah that's real shit
