Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah yeah
How you gone lie?
yeah
I put my hands in sky
Why that lil hoe had to lie
How you gone lie?
Gave her the truth and I cried
I could not live with that lie, I was die
I put my trust into God
Moma said walk with the faith
I walk with that 9
Hoe I ain’t wasting no time
She wanna turn back the clock
But it don’t stop
I put my hands in sky
Why that lil hoe had to lie
How you gone lie?
Gave her the truth and I cried
I could not live with that lie, I was die
I put my trust into God
Moma said walk with the faith
I walk with that 9
Hoe I ain’t wasting no time
She wanna turn back the clock
But it don’t stop
Hoe I ain’t wasting no time
Hoe I ain’t wasting no time
I gotta stay on my grind
I gotta stay on my grind
I miss my bitch she was fine
I miss my bitch she was fine
But I ain’t wasting her time
No she ain’t wasting my time
Swag different level
Feet balenciago
Pants was ruff ryders now they balmains
Locks hanging, tatted up like lil Wayne
Used to warm up for the ball games
Step dad used bag that cocain
Feds through the door ain’t saying no names
lil brothers crying told em it’s ok
Saw my moma crying, you don’t understand
Had to get up outta there and make some bands
Did it by my vlone, I don’t have no friends
Only nigga I can trust, Ben Franklin
Friends, family, girl they’ll bite ya hand
Had to get up outta there and make some bands
Did it by my vlone, I don’t have no friends
Only nigga I can trust, Ben Franklin
Friends, family, girl they’ll bite ya hand
I put my hands in sky
Why that lil hoe had to lie
How you gone lie?
Gave her the truth and I cried
I could not live with that lie, I was die
I put my trust into God
Moma said walk with the faith
I walk with that 9
Hoe I ain’t wasting no time
She wanna turn back the clock
But it don’t stop
I put my hands in sky
Why that lil hoe had to lie
How you gone lie?
Gave her the truth and I cried
I could not live with that lie, I was die
I put my trust into God
Moma said walk with the faith
I walk with that 9
Hoe I ain’t wasting no time
She wanna turn back the clock
But it don’t stop
