lyrics

Came from the mud and refuse to fold
But now we on sum shit where we losing bros
The picture was bigger than these stupid hoes
Gotta get on track, running thru our foes

Thats how it gotta be (x4)


Payin dues n refuse to lose, chasing money n breaking rules
Cant count me out i refuse to lose, cant count me out i refuse to lose
In the streets so long i need new shoes
When the Fed lurkin never lose ya cool
They aint gotta case, ask for a lawyer
In a glass house, standing in the foyer
Lack of love turned my heart cold
Had to stand tall when the hardest fold
Thank the lord for my many blessings
He carried me thru my worst depression
Made the same mistakes, never learned my lesson
Now I'm sitting here going thru the stressing
Im a good nigga that just take chances
The plan is to put my fam in a mansion
Damn, shit just be fucked up
I'm tired of yall telling me its tuff love
Ima do me til the chips gone
Never make time for a bitch drawn
Cant make money on that type of time
Spending time and wont make a dime
Ima be fine cus ima get mine
Bottomline im bouta dollar sign

Came from the mud and refuse to fold
But now we on sum shit where we losing bros
The picture was bigger than these stupid hoes
Gotta get on track, running thru our foes

Thats how it gotta be (x4)

We done came too far to get the show canceled
Trust and believe its gon get handled
Whoever jump ship gettin dismantled
Niggas act weird i just switch channels
I aint got time for the silly games
Im taking aim like its the gun range
And im shootin shots at all targets
Cus if i dont eat then we all starving
When my dad died, he left insurance money
When my mom died, she left insurance money
Fuck that ima break the chain
My kids deserve more than pocket change
We live a life so we can die broke
And we feed our kids a bunch of lies and hope
Then they grow up blind and see its not fair
And the broken dreams won't stop there
Go to school, start life in debt
Working hard just to chase a check
Now you chasing checks to try and keep up
Life moving faster than you can keep up
Shit won't stop and you need a break
Life keep going now ya body ache
Dress warm in this cold world
Cus ain't no love for the old girl

Came from the mud and refuse to fold
But now we on sum shit where we losing bros
The picture was bigger than these stupid hoes
Gotta get on track, running thru our foes

Thats how it gotta be (x4)
