Riko Rose Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me what they could say now
Tryna figure me out
The talk of the town
He not with the mob he can't come round
He not stand up make em sit down
I know she in love with that gun sound
Don't care bout a bond it's broken
And no we don't tolerate rats
So it hurt my heart when you folded
It's like all of my opps wanna be me
And don't hit phone when you need me
If you saw what I saw
And come where I'm from
I promise you wouldn't believe me
Niggas talking a lot
And moving like cops
They don't gotta know
Just tp
I don't want the front
I'm playing the back
Bitch I'm hoodied up in the backseat
I'm on the hunt for a come up
Ain't lacking I'm keeping my gun up
Like what you gonna do
Don't get it confused
Cause we wanna war who wanna?
We get it tied
Just pass me the ball like Rose I'm beating the buzzer
Gotta ring but I need me another
Play with me mine than I bet that he suffer
I might just take a lil stab at it
Do what you want ain't mad at it
We are not living the same life
If they see me I'm letting em have at it
You tryna get a reaction
It get sent to my phone I just laugh at it
I let it go I'm picking it up
It took me a while but I'm back at it
Used to think there was no one to save us
Now look at me now live in the flesh
Been in this race I can't give a rest
And I how live how I live I don't got no regrets
You got what I need and I'm coming to get it
Get rich or die I gotta finesse
Ion like you niggas I confess
If you wanna die then come be my guest
Back on that shit
Can't do bad take another risk
When it's time slide better not slip
Said it loud and clear
You know what it is
Stay in ya place
Don't get outta line
Start playing ya role
Just stick to the script
Ain't get back made another rap




Don't live like that
But I bet he wish
