Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I just need it
I just need it
I just need it
Throw it back for me one time
In the field with my brother
Smoke my piece of mind
Ain’t no lacking let em have it
Gotta keep it on
I count my blessings case a nigga got a Teflon
I just need it
Throw it back for me one time
In the field with my brother
Smoke my piece of mind
Ain’t no lacking let em have it
Gotta keep it on
I count my blessings case a nigga got a Teflon
I just need it
Them niggas hating but don’t play with 3
I gotta keep it on me baby this a 3rd degree
32 This bitch jumping ain’t no sprain knee
Over xans them boys tried to murder me
But ima send em a message
Ain’t no talking addressing
Bullet holes in his chest
Left his ass on a stretcher
I ain’t pressing whoever
Get the message I’ll text ya
I ain’t fucking with them people yeah they selfish as ever
Ay
I get my bag then I’m gone
The baddest of the bitches won’t leave me alone
Praying every night hoping god don’t take me home
And them niggas claiming king
But gon watch us take the throne
Yea yea
You know trials and tribulations gonna turn you into a man
Fuck all that extra shit
It’s get money and stay out the way
Learn from your mistakes and move smarter
And that’s facts
I just need it
Throw it back for me one time
In the field with my brother
Smoke my piece of mind
Ain’t no lacking let em have it
Gotta keep it on
I count my blessings case a nigga got a Teflon
I just need it
Throw it back for me one time
In the field with my brother
Smoke my piece of mind
Ain’t no lacking let em have it
Gotta keep it on




I count my blessings case a nigga got a Teflon
I just need it
