Look
Had to let you go
Had to let you go
Had to let you go
Had to let you go
Had to let you go!
Had to let you go
I had,Had to let you go
I did,Had to let you go
So I can go chase my goals
Had to let you go
Had to let you go
So I can get on my toes
Had to let you go, yea
Had to let you go
I had, Had to let you go
Just know that I loved you so
Your sister gone say I don't
Had to go stick to my code
Had to stay true to my word
Too many people that believed in me
Way before you girl they seen it in me
Tell you something I won't tell you lies
Hurts I know I gotta improvise
Good where I'm at I'm sitting
Don't mean ain't working on a vision
Let me leave I'm coming with it
Passing time with these other women
Now 1% of my love is given
Mistakes I make you keep them listed
Thought it'd bring us close if I was distant
Had the chance I think I missed it
Just know that I'm all on my own
I can't even save my soul
You can't even save my soul
They can't even save my soul
I gotta go pay my loans
I can't even pay my loans
You can't even pay my loans
So I had, I had, I had, I had
Had to let you go
Had to let you go
Had to let you go
Had to let you go
So I can go chase my goals
Had to let you go, yea
Had to let you go
I had, Had to let you go
I did, Had to let you go
So I can go chase my goals
Had to let you go
Had to let you go
So I can get on my toes
Had to let you go, yea
Had to let you go
I had, Had to let you go
And I say pinnacles to go plat or something
Named it up in the back or something
Which comes with her on her back or something
Money coming, getting back to something
Or that same girl that I loved first
Cut her deep and it still hurts
After a year or something, she's still fucking with you
Out of will or nothing, permission took him to another level
Like the man is high, go get some bricks to tell you
Niggas never knew the means of nothing
Like he didn't do it, cause he's still a youngin
While I pop something, they had to stand still
Or they copy me as if edit will
Lil something just to keep composure
for I pop a nigga like I raised his ass
Good to see it's over, good
No cane on me, lil' limp, though I'm good
I took a whole year off, now you see I'm good
Ayy, fuck I gotta flex for, I'm still praying for
Everything my niggas need, no less, just more
So I had, I had, I had

Mistakes I make you keep them listed
You continuously remind me of the errors I've made

I believed that creating distance between us would strengthen our bond
Had the chance I think I missed it
I had an opportunity, but I believe I let it slip away
I can't even save my soul
I am unable to protect my own well-being
You can't even save my soul
You are incapable of safeguarding my inner self
They can't even save my soul
Even others are unable to preserve my soul
I gotta go pay my loans
I need to repay my debts
I can't even pay my loans
I am unable to fulfill my financial obligations
You can't even pay my loans
You lack the means to settle my debts
And I say pinnacles to go plat or something
I am aiming for great success or recognition
Named it up in the back or something
I associated my name with something prestigious or influential
Which comes with her on her back or something
She carries a burden or responsibility
Money coming, getting back to something
Financial gains are returning, getting back on track
Or that same girl that I loved first
Or perhaps the same girl I fell in love with initially
Cut her deep and it still hurts
I deeply hurt her, and the pain lingers
After a year or something, she's still fucking with you
Even after a year, she remains involved with you
Out of will or nothing, permission took him to another level
Due to sheer determination or external influence, he reached a higher level
Like the man is high, go get some bricks to tell you
Similar to a confident man, go seek evidence to support his claims
Niggas never knew the means of nothing
People never understood the significance or purpose
Like he didn't do it, cause he's still a youngin
As if he didn't accomplish it because he is still young
While I pop something, they had to stand still
While I achieve something notable, they had to remain stagnant
Or they copy me as if edit will
Alternatively, they imitate me without any genuine creativity
Lil something just to keep composure
A small action performed to maintain composure
For I pop a nigga like I raised his ass
Before I harm someone physically, as if I were their guardian
Good to see it's over, good
It's satisfying to witness its conclusion, good
No cane on me, lil' limp, though I'm good
I don't need assistance, despite a slight setback, I'm fine
I took a whole year off, now you see I'm good
I took a significant break, and now you can observe my well-being
Ayy, fuck I gotta flex for, I'm still praying for
Why should I showcase my success? I am still hopeful and praying
Everything my niggas need, no less, just more
I strive to provide everything my friends require, not settling for less
