HOOK
(DEMO)

There comes a point up in your life - when you know you gotta,
Push your pride off to the side - make the right decision,
Everybody ain't on your side - when you change position,
Takes the wisdom to realize - some people never change,

VERSE 1
(BIG MO-BERG)

I sit back here, recollectin' my memories, recognize a lotta my friends were enemies,
In disguise, ain't really who they pretend to me, no surprise, they dirty like methamphetamines,
But I ain't clutchin' a grudge, I'm a man and understand that it was what it was,
They never cared if I was stuck in a rut, ran they mouth and talked down, only up in the cut,
You come around they try to butter you up, behind your back throwin' dirt, tryin' to cover you up, but,
My shine combined wit my grind can't ever be faded but haters can die tryin',
Showin' up to our shows givin' us hand daps, but we know exactly where you stand at,
A man's path and his pride can collide, so I just keep it movin', let em slide to the side,

HOOK
(DEMO)

There comes a point up in your life - when you know you gotta,
Push your pride off to the side - make the right decision,
Everybody ain't on your side - when you change position,
Takes the wisdom to realize - some people never change,

VERSE 2
(THAT MANIAC ZACK)

It took a long time, but I finally realized that I been wastin' my life, trapped in my vice,
Endless nights of liquor wit fights got me feelin' different inside,
Too many homies have died for me to know it's not right,
It wasn't hard to decide, but it was difficult to give it a try,
Couldn't decline when it was always on my mind,
And in front of my eyes, it seems so fun until I wake up surprised,
I get so dumb, out of line, don't know what runs through my mind,
Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde when I'm tiltin' the bottle so, I'm thinkin' I oughtta go,
Cuz I know it's possible Ill get out of control, but some of my bros keep on telling me no, don't want me to grow responsible,
So I had to swallow my pride, and tell em goodbye,
Wouldn't let em follow with a reply, just hoped they stuck by my side,
But if they didn't, then good riddance, cuz they friendship's a lie,
I've reached a turning point and I think I'll be fine,

VERSE 3
(BABY SHEL)

I notice they'll never change from all the pressure and pain that I've dealt wit',
Over the time I been in the game, I need help wit,
But ain't nobody there for me man, they get selfish,
Trippin' bout somethin' that don't pertain to they health, it's,
Always bout money and so for fame, I just melt shit,
Go past my turning point with this flame, I can't help it,
I could care less if you know my name, Baby Shel is,
Tossin' and turnin' to make a lane, aim,
For the top, even though I'm at the bottom,
And all the people who doubt me, I done already forgot em,
Gotta make it for my family, I know you understandin' me,
Can it be another negligent muthafucka that stand between,
Me achievin' what I been workin' for my whole life,
I been grindin' for the payout, I stay out the whole night,
Workin' on my craft while I'm rippin' and burnin' joints,
I push my pride to the side, I guess that's my turnin' point,

HOOK
(DEMO)

There comes a point up in your life - when you know you gotta,
Push your pride off to the side - make the right decision,
Everybody ain't on your side - when you change position,
Takes the wisdom to realize - some people never change,
