can't ignore

you ever try to run away from somethin'

but you can never get away from it?

it's like it's

it's always right behind you?

or like

you try not to pay attention to somethin'

but it's

it's just hard for you not to focus on it?

like you just can't ignore it?

yeah

i feel like that all the time

if you ain't down to make a sacrifice

you gotta get gone

you gon' recognize the struggle when you live on your own

family don't fuck with you so you feel left alone

gotta hustle

stick 'em up just to keep on your phone

see

i've been down this road before

sometimes my smiles be forced

i tried to delete memories

but that's something i can't ignore

when niggas talk

they be so out of pocket

bitches used to x-out me

now my bitches exotic

and i ain't never really had that many clothes in my closet

now when i smile at a nigga

they just know that i'm ballin'

it's some things

you can't ignore it if you tried to

it was just a year ago

i was workin' in the drive-thru

now niggas lookin' at me like i'm a prophet

how ironic

an unknown nigga iconic

counteract

you can't ignore the truth if you counteract

don't wanna get too close

don't get your heart attached

you might just fuck around and have a heart attack

counteract

you can't ignore the truth if you counteract

don't wanna get too close

don't get your heart attached

you might just fuck around and have a heart attack

i've been down this road before

sometimes my smiles be forced

i tried to delete memories

but that's something i can't ignore

when i needed you i call your phone and you wasn't pickin' up

all the clothes and shoes that i had

i had to stick 'em up

like stick 'em up

like give it up

i need everything

i'm married to these streets

i should've bought a wedding ring

i told my jeweler put some ice all in every chain

hey

why you doin' it like that? i never had a thing

hey

where these niggas where when i was trappin' at the store?

where were these bitches where when i was sleepin' on the floor?

we cut the oven on

it's just to heat the whole house

i wasn't scared of the roaches but i ain't fuck with mouses

my partners stupid

they had me breakin' in peoples' houses

god

know you took these women

i can do with 'em

i don't know why you took my mama

i can't live without her

i know this money don't heal pain

but i'm still countin'

i need a blue strip

for every blue tip

they think i'm too crip

ayy

bitch

i'm too stiff

if you ain't down to make a sacrifice

you gotta get gone

you gon' recognize the struggle when you live on your own

family don't fuck with you so you feel left alone

gotta hustle

stick 'em up just to keep on your phone
