Lyrics
Follow my thoughts and dreams
It felt like I never accomplish things
Only goal I ever really had was just to get me a shot in the league
Looking at friends as competition if you're not on my team
Number checking like a statistician when I'm not in the lead
All my decisions are habit-driven
Trying to get the machine to turn off
I can see a cinematic vision
But they blocking the scene like the cops
Ain't involved behind the closed door
With a lock and a key, it's a box
That's where I'm keeping the secret ingredient
That's where I'm keeping the sauce
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
You know that shit ain't sweet
You know that shit ain't sweet
All of that whining and bitching
I told you to shut up respectfully
You should be minding your business
But you couldn't do it professionally
I write it, record it and mix it
It's sort of like whipping a recipe
So when I get in the kitchen
You know I be cheffing a specialty
I'm in my element, getting jiggy with the gelatin
It's not an album, it's a cookbook
It should top the Times' bestseller list
They wonder how I'm still hungry
Like I'm playing power forward for the Pelicans
Five years in Columbus, but you know the white boy's not settling
The white boy got soul too, when did the white boy get melanin
You can't name one white boy this white boy's not better than
Not even Eminem
Okay, maybe Eminem
But then again, I mean the old Eminem, no later than 2010
Yeah, I'm cooking like Emeril Lagasse
They wanna look like me, sound like me, call 'em my offspring
Y'all like some rubber chicken Rick Ross wings, not even saucy
I might go double dip 'em in a Frosty, cause y'all so goddamn salty
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
You know that shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
You know that shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
