Lyrics
Wake up everyday like I gotta paid
But the devil plans for me
Tryna move straight but the snakes in the grass so you gotta move carefully...
Everyone abandon me
This life no guarantees
Best friends turn enemies
Better keep that same energy
Like
Dont be shocked when I pull up
Top down hood up
Pulling phones out like waddup
Dont be bitter
Knock down but always get up
Mama never raised no quitter
Park bench for a bed
Had to use my arm for a pillow
My wallet needed a cast
So broke that I need a hospital...
Why have I not made a profit off everything I did while lil whatever is poppin my daughter is starving I dont a have a option so I stop complaining
And reached in my pocket
I dont got no money but I gotta plan
You did not once you could do it again
Hollered at Factor they gave me a grant
Called up like boss like nigga I quit
I found me a team
I love em forever cause no matter what they believing me
I followed my dreams
Took it to the extreme
I aint the bad guy
But when it comes to mines I kill everything
Chorus
Once upon a time
I was trying to survive
I put my life on the line
Make me rich or lemme die
I had to find a way...
Dont let em violate
Once upon a time I was getting by
Moving packs on delivery
Terrified but I had to ride
Just so I could provide for the family
I need a slice of the pie so why are they shutting be down like Vesuvios
Still got that fire inside
So first thing that I did is went back in the studio
Wanna be an entertainer
Then you gotta ask the devil for a favor
Gotta watch out for your neighbour
If its for the paper they gon violate ya
Think dat money gonna save ya
Til you entagled like Will and Jada
Gave you 30k
And a new chain
Now u inna chain gang for the label
Gotta learn to have some patience
Had to many altercations
I dont ease up
I'm meant be sum'n
I cant be complancent
Hustled a million days
I made a million streams
Thought it was great
Til I said wait
That shit only Minimum wage
Know you heard it like 100 times
Sign this you gon be a star
You spend every dollar, every dime
Tryna tiktok to the charts
This is not for the feint of heart
Think u shining til you in the dark
They got caught up in the trap
And never made it back nigga thats true story
