Lyrics
Motherfuckin' bosses take losses, nigga
Fuckin' with Bankroll, French Prince of Ohio, man
I do it when I do it, but when I do it, I serve it
Life ain't easy, gotta learn from my mistakes
A boss take losses, so that's one that I gotta take
When it's time to go to war, you realize half your team is fake
Get on my two knees, close my eyes and pray
Man, you ain't workin'? Who you think you foolin', bro
While you was at the parties, I was in the studio
I'm tryna get rich, cause this is what I do
Niggas love to hate, but wanna be up in your shoe
Real niggas don't die, that's why I'm still alive
And I sit down and wonder what's the good in goodbye
Don't be surprised if I make it, you gon' be sick
Just remember them days when I was on my shit
I'm gettin' phone calls to my house and they talkin' bout threats
They puttin' prices on my head and niggas at my neck
Time to strut up like the Navy, where my soldiers at
But if my time is now, I don't really give a shit
They ain't gon' give it to me, so I gotta take it
And time is money, so I'm done waitin'
Cause niggas is sick, I'm allergic to the facin'
But guess what nigga, I gotta make it
Learnin' ain't easy, gotta learn from my mistakes
A boss will take losses, so that's one that I gotta take
When it's time to go to war, you realize half your team is fake
This a bitch in my life now nigga
Most niggas talk about money, car, clothes, and injuries
But on this damn song, I'ma talk about my lifestyle
It was wild, my mo's still raisin' me to this day
My mo said I was too white and blue, but I was blue and black
Never did this for real life, cause I knew that wasn't me
Time to strut, really didn't have no place to fuckin' sleep
My mo hustled on the side just so her baby boy could eat
I always wonder, did my mom ever get this money from the street
Ain't no payin' woman, but that's why she payin' rent
I was so keen in glasses to pay the rent
I always looked at her crazy like, Mama, how you do this shit so much
Money in her face, it was worth it
But we struggle, then we lose, then God, he understood
We had our times when we struggled, but it's gon' be all good
Mama always had my back, so you know I got yours too
So when I make it to the top, first check, it's been done good
And I'm prayin' every night, hopin' this gon' be tight
Everything's gon' be all right
If you wanna be a boss, you gotta know what the cost is
Been through the struggle, bosses take losses
Life ain't easy, gotta learn from my mistakes
I'm the one that I gotta thank
When it's time to go to work, you realize half your team is fake
Get on my two knees, close my eyes, and pray
Dear Father, I know that I don't ask you for much
But can you please have my back when I get caught up
People change like the weather, I don't know who to trust
I got the glory of the Lord, and to me it's a must
Why people hatin' on me
Man, you supposed to be a hundred, but you negative six
Am I that big of a deal, man? Who is I
I'm just a lil' dude from the streets livin' and tryin' to survive
Forget my old friends, all of them was a burst of lies
Supposed to be my brother, I can't even look you in the eyes
I'm tellin' you, Father, I swear I'm done hopin' on faith
I gotta settle down officially and finally take a break
I have scars in my circle, so it's just about to take
Carpet eyes watery, cause I'm allergic to the faith
You probably sneak this in right now, nine times out of ten
Thank you, Lord, for everything. Thank you, Father
