You got to understand We trying to tell you the deal from our perspective

The J5 collective will wreck 'cuz you

You got to understand" keep it together and try You might want to say but you you got to understand

We're more than meets the third eye, words fly

Reppin' from the bird's eye view I ain't hating, I just heard better

Up the ante on the game and apply the pressure

Understand I was a fan

Before I was a member of your favorite rap band

Understand that I'm still a fan And you can keep playing after the fact

Related to the game and came after crack

'Cuz every nigga I know is out ta get a plaque

So why you wanna go and do that, huh? I don't know man, 'cuz we see fiends who dream cream

Reppin' the west through special effects and green screens

And it seems you need to be the one to flash that cannon

Or sign the autographs till the last cat's standing Brother pass that action and your trashin' is real

Your only way of coming up is probably inking a deal

While you're thinking the skills, some are thinking the mills

In a never-ending quest ta get the house on the hill

And that's real What ya gotta

The J5 collective will wreck 'cuz you

You got to understand" keep it together and try You might want to say, but you you got to understand

We're more than meets the third eye, words fly

Reppin' from the bird's eye view I need some understanding in this world between me and my girl

She want the diamonds and the pearls to be a part of my world

Twenty four-sev but love don't pay the rent

So love me when I'm home and cherish the moment Uh-huh, 'cuz some of you women are men's mirrors

I know some women who dodge balls like Ben Stiller

Please understand, it's not to offend or seem bitter

But every queen need a king wit her Ms. Thing I don't know

But ever I leave you ready to go

My Momma told me about how it flow

But I didn't wanna listen but she told me so Now if it ever came to the bank account

Who'd ya pack ya things and get up and bounce

These the type of things that I be thinking about

To all my other fellas you got to understand What ya gotta

Speak the truth for real

The J5 collective will wreck 'cuz you

You got to understand keep it together and try You might want to say but you you got to understand

We're more than meets the third eye, words fly

Reppin' from the bird's eye view And all the times I tried ta do what this wanna God do?

It's cuz I see the world from the Artist eye view

You live life the next part is you die, too

And there's no one on this Earth it doesn't apply to Now that's true, 'cuz every single day I live

I'm obligated just ta say it like it T-I is

And I ain't gon' talk about no cat whose decision is poor

Trust me, man, my hand is just as dirty as yours Either they like you or they hype you, it's a cycle

Choices that we make in the vital

'Cuz in the blink of an eye it can all go awry

And the next man will quickly take your title Yeah, between me and myself and all of these things

Understanding is a theme when we doing our thing

From the job to my queen and chasing my dream

The whole world needs a little bit of understanding What ya gotta
