P-Lo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This ain't no love song ya heard me
But I be on some other shit sometimes
Yeah heard me Hahaha
I know who I am I know who I am
Am
Definite way of living
The longer it take to get it
The longer I'm gone be in it
The longer I'm gone be winning
I'm Happy with my decision trusting my intuition
A small mind couldn't vision
The profecies that was written
For a king
A vision with no action just a Dream
And a king without a Dream is just queen
A lot of shit in life ain't what the seems
You live in disguise everyday is Halloween
Focused on what's practical
Can't let you intervene
I can't let you come between
They gone try say I'm mean
Gotta mind like a marine
I ain't nobody machine
I just do my own routines
Gotta keep my hands clean
Shitting on em no latrines
I see me on the tv screens
Been wanting this since a teen
CFN that be the team
I got hustle in my genes
Don't need the college or degrees
My soul certifies me

I'm a make it last
I won't come in last
This shit like a autobahn and I ain't tryna crash
I got off my ass too much time passed
I really came from nothing
Yeah I'm talking from scratch
I found a real woman
You are who you attract
I didn't think woman feelings would ever Impact
With the way I'm out here moving And the way that I act
We gone make it last I was on my last
You never doubted you just kept on watering the grass
I'm grateful for that you very contrast
We had went separate ways you thought it was chapped
But you came back our souls knew it'll happen
Them others can't come close you out of they bracket
And the shit that you be on they can't imagine
Not afraid to show I feel I love ya with passion
Lil baby be my lieutenant & I be her captain

Definite way of living
The longer it takes to get it
The longer I'm gone be in it
The longer I'm gone be winning
Happy with my decision trusting intuition
A small mind couldn't vision
The profecies that was written
For a king
A vision with no action just a Dream
And king a without a Dream is just queen
A lot of shit in life ain't really what it seems
You live in disguise everyday is Halloween
Focused on what's practical
Can't let you intervene
I can't let you come between
They gone try say I'm mean
Gotta mind like a marine
I ain't nobody machine I just do my own routines
Gotta keep my hands clean
Shitting on em no no latrines
I see me on the tv screens been want this shit since teen
CFN that be the team
I got hustle in my genes




Don't need the college or degrees
My soul certifies me
