Locked In
r.o.fi.x Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Was looking for another life
You know we had it hard then
You was throwing lobs
I'm catching fades like Percy Harvin
Put the whole team on
Now none of us are starving
You're the captain
& you always told me I'm the Sergeant
Was fucking with you way before
And then we got locked in
You'll never catch me in that shit
If it ain't top end
Remember working all them
Jobs
A nigga used to call in
Used to dream about these days
A young nigga ballin
I was up and walking around
Before I started crawling
See you in the mall
And I see that you be stalling
Can't be on my team
Cuz my Niggas they go all in
When I'm in that pussy
Yeah she want me to fall in
All we do is ball from the summer
To the fall ends
She know that I'm cheating
But she ain't saying nothing
Had a wreck in the maro
Then copped the Beamer
& once I fuck on your bitch
She for the team uhh
Take me back to the old days
Big gas, big dope, smoking Propane
Breaking niggas on the madden
For a long game
Copped my first Qp
To a whole thing
Bosshogg big goat
You a hood flame
Say life goes on but your life ain't
Had a soul full of gold
I was young but now I'm old
Imma keep that shit you told
That's for ever right
I can't sleep I'm drinking heavy so I'm up at night
All cuz my dawg he up in heaven
I can't call him like
Gotta chase your dream
Without the repercussion
Momma caught me with the dope
She said my life disgusting
Trying to make it out the struggle
So I'm really hustling
Niggas fuckin off they money
Turn something to nothing
Had to Vv out my chain
Because I'm really bussing
I can't love on no bitch cuz these hoes be fucking
Was looking for another life
You know we had it hard then
You was throwing lobs
I'm catching fades like Percy Harvin
Put the whole team on
Now none of us are starving
You're the captain
& you always told me I'm the Sergeant
Was fucking with you way before
And then we got locked in
You'll never catch me in that shit
If it ain't top end
Remember working all them
Jobs
A nigga used to call in




Used to dream about these days
A young nigga ballin
