Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I ain't breaking a sweat now
I run through hell without breaking a sweat now
I ain't breaking sweat yeah
I run through hell without breaking a sweat yeah
You should know well I ain't causing no stress yeah
She getting mad cause I'm hard to forget yeah
I turn around like bitch what d'you expect yeah
I run through hell without breaking a sweat yeah
I ain't breaking a sweat now
Just how it gets now
Too far to get out
We focused on cheques now
You dumb if you think you're making me stressed out
Still no disrespect but you ain't a threat you more of a let down
I couldn't care less now
Surely you don't think you're making me stressed out
Like surely you don't think you're making me stressed
Cause sometimes you gotta just take what you get
I never gave a fuck and I still don't yet
Never came across as much more than what you'd expect
And I never needed nothing from no one fuck what you said
And I never needed none of these bitches doing me head in
Cause yeah it made me mad but you never would catch me vexed
And I never had a buss down
But truss me when we went and took the bus down
That shit got shut down
They wanna be us now
And I just wanna play some pro clubs now
Hopefully the squads down
You man'll get run out
And if L's what you taking how you talking 'bout a touchdown
Never had it anyway but I don't need luck now
I run through hell without breaking a sweat yeah
You should know well I ain't causing no stress yeah
She getting mad cause I'm hard to forget yeah
I turn around like bitch what d'you expect yeah
I run through hell without breaking a sweat yeah
I ain't breaking a sweat now
Just how it gets now
Too far to get out
We focused on cheques now
You dumb if you think you're making me stressed out
Still no disrespect but you ain't a threat you more of a let down
I couldn't care less now
Surely you don't think you're making me stressed out
Ooh I run through hell and you know I ain't sweating like
Ooh don't get too close or you might just regret it like
Ooh mil in the bank is as low as it's getting like
Ooh got too much shit on my mind to be stressing
Ooh I run through hell and you know I ain't sweating like
Ooh don't get too close or you might just regret it like
Ooh mil in the bank is as low as it's getting like
I run through hell without breaking a sweat yeah
You should know well I ain't causing no stress yeah
She getting mad cause I'm hard to forget yeah
I turn around like bitch what d'you expect yeah
I run through hell without breaking a sweat yeah
I ain't breaking a sweat now
Just how it gets now
Too far to get out
We focused on cheques now
You dumb if you think you're making me stressed out
Still no disrespect but you ain't a threat you more of a let down




I couldn't care less now
Surely you don't think you're making me stressed out
