I’m tired of this work, it’s s*it, these jobs ain’t it
Need something that can pay me
Can’t get a break, need money in the bank
Tell me what it’s gon’ take just to make G?
I hate the way it feel when the rate get real
Then the landlords tripping on the eighteenth
Nowhere to run when the rain gon’ come
I looking for the sun like KD
And the crib too hit, no AC
Broke n!gga out scheming on your AP
I ain’t wanna do it, but you made me
Kids gotta eat and the bills got late fees
My cousin hit me up tryna save me
Told me how to sell crack but that ain’t me
Look, there’s gotta be another way to make cheese
It’s a life over n!ggas tryna break free
The hating n!ggas wanna curve me and block me
If this rap don’t work, then it’s robbery
Gotta make it out the dirt, n!gga, watch me
Tryna get what I deserve like Taraji
Wasn’t waiting my turn, I was tryna get heard
You was looking for the birds on the IG
When I was putting in the work, you was popping them Perc’s
Tryna get a n!gga served on the Oxy
If I’ma get to where I’m going, I’ma need cake
Had a meeting with the plug over cheesecake
You was fronting me the money in the briefcase
Told ’em I’ma get it times ten, we gon’ be straight
All I needed was a dream, I don’t need breaks
Soon as I catch steam, I’m a heatwave
Had ADHD since pre-K
This is for them n!ggas that said I wouldn’t be great, b!tch, mm

Soon a n!gga thought that I was done, I came in that b!tch with a eight piece (Eight piece)
But baby needs shoes and the whip due too, rent due too on the eighteenth (Eighteenth), uh
I don’t wanna take it up a notch, but the buss down watch ’bout to make me (Make me)
As long as I’m alive, folk, just keep your eyes open, be concerned for your safety (Safety)

‘Cause if you gon’ hate me
Uh, I’ma have to give you motherfu*kers a reason
‘Cause if you gon’ hate me
Yeah, ayy, I’ma make sure that you mean it
‘Cause if you gon’ hate me
You better learn what I been through lately (Yeah, uh)
How many n!ggas gon’ be where I can’t be?
Just keep your eyes open, be concerned for your safety (Safety)
I know they gon’ hate me

I want this, believe that
Who got bread? I need that
Was André, with three stacks
Delonte, I relapsed
Was stressed out, I mean that
I checked out, I’ll be back
I’m chasing, I reached that
It’s major, in G flat
I keep my pace when I’m in the rat race and the government wanna keep me trapped
And the school keep telling me that I can be anything I want, but I really ain’t believe that
They was teaching me to work for another motherfu*ker when I graduate and I ain’t wanna be that
‘Cause if the goal was for me to get rich with a 9-to-5 shift, I ain’t never gon’ achieve that
What you know ’bout risking it all just to get a li’ bread? So you living like a don, huh?
What you know about doing some dirt and you drawing up plans just to get to where you going, huh?
What you know about taking a chance on yourself ’cause ain’t nobody putting you on, huh?
What you know about giving your heart to a ho when you know that ain’t where you belong, huh?
What you know about shopping at Ross ’cause you ain’t had pockets for Louis Vuitton, huh?
What you know about selling some crack to your ex’s mom and you knew it was wrong, huh?
But you ain’t got no feelings ’cause you up in the trenches and all your emotions gone, huh?
What you know about weighing out all of the pros, bit you really too good at the cons, huh?

Soon a n!gga thought that I was done, I came in that b!tch with a eight piece (Eight piece), uh
But baby needs shoes and the whip due too, rent due too on the eighteenth (Eighteenth), uh
I don’t wanna take it up a notch, but the buss down watch ’bout to make me (Make me)
As long as I’m alive, folk, just keep your eyes open, be concerned for your safety (Safety)
‘Cause if you gon’ hate me
Uh, I’ma have to give you motherfu*kers a reason
‘Cause if you gon’ hate me
Yeah, ayy, I’ma make sure that you mean it
‘Cause if you gon’ hate me
You better learn what I been through lately (Yeah, uh)
How many n!ggas gon’ be where I can’t be?
Just keep your eyes open, be concerned for your safety (Safety)
‘Cause if you gon’ hate me
I’ma have to give you motherfu*kers a reason
‘Cause if you gon’ hate me, yeah
Ayy, I’ma make sure that you mean it
‘Cause if you gon’ hate me
You better learn what I been through lately (Yeah, uh)
How many n!ggas gon’ be where I can’t be?
Just keep your eyes open, be concerned for your safety (Safety)
I know they gon’ hate me
