Yeah (Ohh)
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah
Look aye
Pray for my circle cause satan steady around me
I'm tryna be up, ain't no time for niggas to down me (No no)
Come try to walk in my shoes, bet you wont clown me
I pray to god
Selfish wit my love cause I be lost up in my thoughts
I done trust before and I been hurt bad by a thot
Had to cut my cast, too many niggas know the plot
Ask me how I'm feelin and I say its just a lot
Ask me when the last time that I loved, I forgot
I believed in niggas that was wishing I would rot
All I know is family cause its all that I got yeah, yeah
I been so good all day
Riic will air that bitch broad day
My nigga Qee will air that bitch broad day
And you know Mike gon air that bitch broad day yeah, yeah
I been on the road goin crazy
She want me to fly out to the bay
Aye I ain't rich so ain't no time for vacay
Tryna drink up all this pain away
Pray for my circle cause satan steady around me
I'm tryna be up, ain't no time for niggas to down me (No no)
Come try to walk in my shoes, bet you wont clown me
I walk this road wit no path, hope someone found me
Yeah, they tryna down me, they tryna clown me
Been walking roads all alone so get from round me
I'm just along way from home, ain't no one found me
I gotta carry this load wit no one proud of me
I'm so lost I'm goin crazy, I just wan be alone
Any friend who turned a enemy, been hating yo zone
Bitches miss me now I'm gone, don't be calling my phone
I matured early nigga, life showed me the code
I don't play wit lil boys, better check on ya tone
Tried to slide on us in traffic til we buss through them cones
They don't want this shit for real, them niggas still like some nomes
If its beef then its up, send em high like a drone
Pray for my circle cause satan steady around me
I'm tryna be up, ain't no time for niggas to down me (No no)
Come try to walk in my shoes, bet you wont clown me
I walk this road wit no path, hope someone found me
