Rhyme N Reason Lyrics - Back To The Feature - Wale

(VERSE 1-Wale) 

See it's sorta like the beat cryin' 

Better it than me cryin', keep quiet 

The red head step-son of the industry, 

I'm in, rap fans meet Ron Howard 

Far from an oppie 

Mind like the sword of shinobi 

But a 9th rappers can't clone me 

A little more Talib less Jay-Z 

A little less Nassir more AZ 

A little more consequence than Kanye 

The underdog from the underground, Wale 

You don't know about the box that they put me in 

Sank a pair of sins every time they say my name 

You see I seen the lane, that I had to take 

Underground nigga, pop fan base 

Stop that saying, I ain't cop out man 

I'm hip-hop still, I do pop champagne 

Still holla at the broads who the fattest 

Get over on the broads who in awe of my status 

Force is a habit 

Jaws to the floor when I'm rappin' 

Now I got support from the masses 

Of course when there's capital the haters come after 

That's why the court's cryin' and I'm laughin' 

They gonna keep blogin', I am and not chattin' 

Think Barack got it bad, try bein' a rapper

(CHORUS- Tre) 

If you know what was goin' through my mind 

You would understand 

Well maybe there's gruel to help you feel what I'm sayin' 

Maybe you get the reason for my rhyme 

And in love of my fans 

And I do what I do, the rest is out of my hands 

And I don't care what they say cause it's my time 

(VERSE 2-Wale) 

So pressure busts pipes 

In that regard this is Mario 5 

The product from DC delivered to y'all 

Difficult odds never seemed to hard 

When in tune with my God I see no problem 

Though I understand the views of a Solange 

Shit, see this pressure I'm used to 

Signed to a Grammy producer 

When Rhyme Fast dropped and the magazines loved him 

Hip-hop talk but the fans ain't budge 

So I feel a little pressure, for me to do better 

To be more pillar, spend a G on a sweater 

Double my effort, that's why I go harder 

Investin' my energy to be a bigger artist 

It's hard to get shine when your city so dark 

Not to mention got the same manager as Sean Carter 

Shit 

How the hell I'm gonna top that 

Lookin' at this contract like aww shit 

I sign ROC Nation anyways 

And told Minili I foresee a lot of better days 

And told Rich to believe in it everyday 

As me and Dan try to keep the same energy 

The price of fame no it isn't cheap 

I swear the industry don't even know the industry 

(CHORUS-Tre)
