Conjuring (Séance de prestidigitation)

JYANT GUPTA INDIA

Step by step, heart to heart

Left right left, we all fall down..

Step by step, heart to heart

Left right left, we all fall down

Like toy soldiers

Bit by bit, torn apart

We never win, but the battle wages on

We're toy soldiers

I'm supposed to be the soldier, who never blows his composure

Even though I hold the weight of the whole world on my shoulders

I ain't never suposed to show it, my crew ain't supposed to know it

Even if it means going toe to toe with the Benzino

It don't matter I would never drag them in battles that I can handle

Unless I absolutely have to, I'm supposed to set an example

I need to be the leader, my crew looks for me to guide 'em

If some shit ever does pop off, I'm supposed to be beside 'em

That Ja's shit, I tried to squash it, it was too late to stop it

There's a certain line you just don't cross, and he crossed it

I heard him say Hailie's name on a song, and I just lost it

It was crazy, the shit went way beyond some Jay-Z and Nas beef

And even though the battle is won I feel like we lost it

I spent so much energy on it, honestly I'm exhausted

And I'm so caught in it, I almost feel I'm the one who caused it

This ain't what I'm in hip-hop for, it's not why I got in it

That was never my object, for someone to get killed

Why would I want to destroy somethin I helped build?

It wasn't my intentions, my intentions were good

I went through my whole career without ever mentioning

And that was just out of respect, for not runnin my mouth

And talkin about something that I knew nothing about

Plus Dre told me stay out, this just wasn't my beef

So I did, I just fell back, watched and gritted my teeth

While he's all over TV, now I'm talkin a man

who literally saved my life, like fuck it I understand

This is business, and this shit just isn't none of my business

I'm still knowing this shit could pop off at any minute, because

Step by step, heart to heart

Left right left, we all fall down

Like toy soldiers

Bit by bit, torn apart

We never win, but the battle wages on

We're toy soldiers
