Yu Vs. Yu Lyrics

[Intro: Xzibit]
You know 'bout five ten years ago I spent five of that ten years
Really in a really depressed state
And I was drinking heavily I was sitting in the house
I wasn't coming outside
People were talking about my taxes
People were talking about my pimp my ride show
And you know it was funny
It was like "hahaha"
But then I was like okay
So I can sit here and I can dwell in this and be on this hamster Wheel
Or I can accept the fact that people love misery loves company
And no matter what I do no matter what I say
They're gonna enjoy the fact the I'm not where I was

[Verse 1]
Hard times making it hard to rhyme
You start a line but a idea is hard to find
You want your art to shine
But the weight of the world give you the darkest mind
Now your heart's confined by the artist grind
You try to stop your motivation shook
Got writers block 'cause it's problems every place you look
Now you ain't wrote a f*cking word and you feeling like Zuckerberg
'Cause you know you and your pen gon' have to face your book
Shit
Your family's always bitching like fix your life
Stop dreaming about the shit you write
Start thinking about kids and wife
But before you give up ripping mics
You gon' give your wrist to slice with a kitchen knife
Nobody understands a starving artist
You try to create your art regardless but can't escape
All the thoughts you harness
The seeds of doubt start to harvest
That's when the heartless vultures just starts to ripping apart your Carcass like stop

[Chorus]
Give it up you will never live it up
Take that notebook in front of you and just rip it up
If you never gave the world your gift, who would give a f*ck?
Everybody's right and your're wrong [?]
It was all a dream that's what Big said
Gotta lose yourself 'cause that's what Em said
It's a marathon tho that's what Nip said
Gotta get your mind right 'cause that's what Pimp said
One hunned one hunned If they can do it you can do it too
One hunned one hunned
If they can do it you can do it too
Success speaks louder than doubters that's the truest truth
Ain't nobody in the world stopping you but you
You but you uh

[Interlude]
Now let that shit sink in for a minute
You know what I tell myself every day?
The mind is designed to find it's kind
You gotta find people who think on the same frequency as you
And f*ck all them haters man

[Verse 2]
Ignore the picture that these fools paint
Yeah
The game changed but the rules ain't
Facts
Gotta operate just like a hybrid let your life's
Drama charge you up and put your pain in your fuel tank
You gotta get fed the f*ck up
And tell them negative voices in your head
Crooked said "Shut the f*ck up"
I got another jewel don't mess this one up
You gotta become a vampire don't rest 'till sun up (Word)
I know you got hella bills overdue
Don't become numb let the shit wash over you
You gotta become so damn mad
That you pick up your pen and fill up the whole damn pad
Like "f*ck this!"

[Outro]
Give it up you will never live it up
Take that notebook in front of you and just rip it up (Nah)
If you never gave the world your gift, who would give a f*ck?
Everybody's right and your're wrong [?]
It was all a dream that's what Big said (Biggie)
Gotta lose yourself 'cause that's what Em said (My nigga)
It's a marathon tho that's what Nip said (RIP)
Gotta get your mind right 'cause that's what Pimp said (RIP)
One hunned one hunned
If they can do it you can do it too (Do it too)
One hunned one hunned
If they can do it you can do it too (Do it too)
Success speaks louder than doubters that's the truest truth
(Truest truth)
Ain't nobody in the world stopping you but you (You but you)
You but you uh (You but you uh)
Uh uh
Uh uh uh
One hunned
Ya heard me?
Ya heard me?
Bark at your dog
