On My Own Lyrics - Singles - Consequence

[Verse 1 - Consequence] 

At times, I used to wonder 

Why there's nothing in my wallet 

Til I accept the faith like Ms. Wallace 

That life is like Creflo speaking at a college 

So listen up or you might miss the dollars 

This is it, I promise 

Anyhow, I don't get tip-top honors, then 

At least save my spot at the hip-hop honors 

And let's be honest: we don't need a lie detector 

Don't try to make a scene like you was once my investor 

You never believed so you ain't gotta lie to Dexter 

But that's exactly where the blame starts 

Cause they be throwing dirt like 

Lebron before the game starts 

But King James couldn't take me off the throne 

Cause when it comes to rap 

I do this on my own

[Hook - Kid Cudi] 

I can do it on my own 

I don't have to listen to your lies (forever) 

Your lies (forever) 

I been moving on my own for some time now 

So I gotta say goodbye (forever) 

Goodbye (forever) 

[Verse 2 - Consequence] 

When you on the road to the riches 

And you get to where the road stops 

The people in your life are either 

Shortcuts or roadblocks 

But one thing you can count on 

When you encounter a hater 

They say waddup now 

Then talk about you later 

But if I try to cater and connect 

Myself to y'all 

You still will have a hang up 

Like a disconnected call 

Trying to please you all is 

Something I've outgrown 

Cause when it comes to rap 

I do this on my own

[Verse 3 - Consequence] 

The same homies who I thought were my support system 

Got the nerve to judge me like the court system 

But what drives me like the valet section 

Is knowing that the game is so vile and wretched 

That you can't even let your guard down 

For a second and that keeps me on my toes 

Like Ballet lessons. So a school transfer 

Couldn't get me out my zone 

So when it comes to rap 

I do this on my own 

[Hook - Kid Cudi]
