Don't Need Ya'll
Trae Lyrics

I never thought that I would, ever see the day
Trae never thought that his own people would try to use him

That my people, will try to use my life away
Trae's own people are trying to use him for their own gain

I really wish that I could leave, and go away
Trae wishes he could leave and distance himself from his ungrateful and manipulative associates

So it's best, to stay the fuck away from Trae
Trae needs to protect himself and stay away from those who would use him

When the fuck, these niggaz gon learn
Trae is frustrated that his associates haven't learned to appreciate and respect him

I've been the realest thang, that done came in they life
Trae has been the most genuine and loyal person in the lives of those around him

And it hurt me daily to turn my back, but still I know they ain't right
Trae is hurt that he has to distance himself from his associates, but he knows that they are not treating him right

No time to be shife, but still I know I gotta ride for my own
Trae doesn't have time for fake people, but he knows he needs to look out for himself

I prolly never would of been pissed, if I was riding alone
Trae wouldn't be angry if he didn't have to deal with ungrateful associates

But situations in my life, done made me change for the best
Trae has been forced to change and distance himself from manipulative people for his own well-being

I can't speak for the rest, but I know a lot of my life been a mess
Trae can't speak for everyone, but he knows that his own life has been difficult

I can't take back the past, so now I'm blaming it all on myself
Trae can't change the past or the way he trusted people, but he blames himself for not being more cautious

I had niggaz that came and left, while spending all of my wealth
Trae had associates who used him and took advantage of his generosity

But quietly kept, I'm bad for your health don't get too close
Although Trae has kept quiet, he knows that associating with him is dangerous for those who would try to use him

Cause I can't determine my friends and my foes, bitches and hoes
Trae can't tell the difference between true friends and fake people who just want to use him

Where was they at, when I ain't had a damn thang in my pocket
Trae's associates were nowhere to be found when he was struggling financially

Like I ain't see the love I gave em, when they took it and dropped it
Trae gave his associates love and support, but they took it for granted and left him when he needed them most

So now I'm all across they face, and ain't no way they can stop me
Trae is making it clear to his former associates that he's done being taken advantage of and won't back down

And plus they know my attitude, be quick to go off like Rocky's
Trae's associates know he can be fiercely protective and won't hesitate to defend himself

Can't knock it cause I ain't wrong, I speak the truth in this song
Trae is being honest and genuine in this song and isn't ashamed of it

So don't come asking me bout shit, just leave me the fuck alone damn
Trae wants his associates to leave him alone and stop trying to use him

So now they got the nerve, to say I'm on some high-seditty shit you tripping bitch
Trae's associates are calling him out for distancing himself and not putting up with their manipulative behavior

How the fuck is y'all talking down, and I grind for this don't make me click
Trae is frustrated that his associates don't respect him and his hard work and dedication

Cause I'll do ya like I never knew ya, I gotta keep my guards up
Trae is ready to cut people out of his life if they continue to try and use him

Cause they say your own'll be quick to use ya, but not no mo'
Trae realizes that even his own people can end up trying to use him, but he won't let that happen anymore

Cause I would rather be doing bad, and they don't come around
Trae is willing to give up his associates if it means he won't be used and taken advantage of

Before I let em use me up, and try to weigh me down
Trae won't let his associates keep using him and dragging him down

I got a lot of anger inside, pride gotta keep me going
Trae is angry and hurt, but he knows he needs to keep his pride and determination to move forward

And the reason I'm one deep up in this game, is what's gon keep me flowing
Trae's independence and determination is what keeps him motivated and moving forward in his career and life

My heart been soft at times, I tried to let em use my hand
Trae has been too trusting and has let his associates take advantage of him in the past

But then they would push it up out the way, and I could never understand
Trae didn't understand why his associates would take advantage of him after he had been so supportive and generous

But now I do, a lot of these niggaz don't give a fuck about me
Trae realizes that many of his associates never truly cared for him and only wanted to use him

So when they see me loading up, I advise that they get from round me
Trae is warning his former associates to stay away from him now that he's had enough

You never thought I could find me, but now I done found myself
Trae has found his own independence and self-worth outside of his toxic associations

My cousin on lock for two, so I'm repping him by myself
Trae is supporting and standing up for his cousin who is currently incarcerated

These niggaz done got me heated, so I'm headed for my shelf
Trae is angry and frustrated to the point where he needs to take a break from his associates and focus on himself

Cause I feel like, they want to put a couple slugs in my health
Trae feels like his associates are a danger to his health and well-being

I never seen the picture clear, than the way that I seen it today
Trae is seeing things more clearly now and realizing how his associates have been taking advantage of him

These niggaz out here gon learn about pain, from fucking with Trae
Trae's associates will eventually face consequences for their actions towards him

I'm the one that'll ride or die, at the drop of a dime
Trae is loyal and will always be there for those who treat him with respect and loyalty

And I don't respect y'all the same, cause y'all done crossed over lines
Trae has lost respect for his associates who have crossed boundaries and taken advantage of him

How you gon look me in my eyes, and steady lie to my face
Trae's associates have been dishonest and manipulative towards him

You know we both be down to die, so don't you come in my space
Trae's associates should be respecting him and his boundaries, especially since they claim to be loyal to him

I heard the other day that you said, that you was down with the click
Trae's associates are trying to act like they're still a part of his group even though he's distancing himself from them

Don't be so quick to hop the fence, you might just get in some shit
Trae is warning his former associates that they might face consequences if they continue to try and manipulate him

That you can't get out of, cause I ain't gon be saving the day
Trae won't be there to save his associates if they get in trouble because of their own actions

See I'm a lonely guerilla, that might come mobbing today
Trae is a lone wolf who will fight back against anyone who tries to disrespect or manipulate him

Before I'm feeling like I'm disrespected
Trae won't tolerate any disrespect towards him or his independence

And the second I reminisce, it's gon be getting hectic
Trae gets angry thinking back on how his associates treated him and won't hesitate to fight back

It ain't no calming me down, cause I've been calm in the past
Trae has been too calm and passive in the past, but now he's had enough and won't be backing down

You niggaz ain't finna be stressing me, if you try to show ass
Trae won't let his former associates stress him out or take advantage of him anymore

And I don't need ya at all, cause y'all ain't true to the game
Trae doesn't need manipulative associates in his life who don't respect him or the industry he's in

I know that y'all the type of niggaz, that be faking for fame
Trae's associates are just trying to use him for their own fame and success, but he won't let them anymore
