BECAUSE OF IT (Radio Edit) Lyrics

Some people got to have it

Some people really need it

Some people do things, do things, bad things for it

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Went from head of my class to head up my a**

Pride swelled like a landscaper allergic to grass

Whole life thought I was allergic to cash

And when cash flow, like grass grow, they cut it in half

Ask my brothers in the league how it feel to get taxed, bag snatched

Handed back just a portion of what you had, huh

I see the key to green is cutting envy out the scene

But I be jaded by myself, can't win a ring without a team

Yeah, and that's a problem we ain't never seen

Word to the king who sang Billie Jean

Cut my brothers in on everything

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Right

Yo, what's the deal, bruh

Aye, man I- I hate to even have to ask you (What's up?)

But uh (Got to have it, man)

But can I borrow something til' tomorrow, man? (Tomorrow?)

I re- I really need it, I promise I'll get it back to you tomorrow (Oh, you need it huh?)

Look, if you ain't got it today, what make me think you gon' have it tomorrow?

Wait, what? What you mean?

I'm just saying, bruh

Oh fasho, you gon' be like that? You gon' be like that? (I'm just keeping it real, man)

Alright, bet! Bet! Bet!

Had to go to the chop shop to get your whip back

Pulling up on the hottest block to get your lick back

Eye for an eye, return the favor, get your s*** back

You and the homies just laughing it off, like yeah we did that

The get back is out of pocket, that's a major loss

Burn a L for the nerves trying to shake it off

A human life, what's the cost? Put a number on it

He got the cash, he don't want it, he regret that moment

They say money just a tool of the enemy

And I can't risk that energy getting into me

You mean to tell me if I make 100 mil' just for spitting how I feel

Somebody'll think of ending me?

So, you can have the paper chase, I need my soul saved

I need my COD to read he died from old age

Pockets filled with residuals from the words I say

What can I say? Good things come to those who pray

Some people got to have it (Got to have it, man)

Some people really need it (Oh, you need it, huh?)

Some people do things, do things, bad things for it

Whatever it is

Let that s*** go

Let that s*** go, ooh

Let that s*** go

Let that s*** go, ooh

Let that s*** go
