The Gamble

All money ain't good money
What you sacrifice ain't worth what you get from it
Believe me, what you do you gon reap
Don't make it where you can't go to sleep

Real niggas do real things
Get by by any means
Live and will die for a dream
Build and provide with the team
Abide by the code when alone
When you go for the green
I done seen niggas fold for the green
Turn hoe lose souls for the green
Told lies, stole for the green
Either it's trust or it ain't
Ain't no go in between
Real women out here getting to the bag
I understand sometimes you gotta do what you can
But you can't get consumed, gotta move with a plan
Play too long can't get back what you had
And it's sad, resorting to paths we take
Getting bit at every step, can't avoid them snakes
Check all credentials, niggas frauds and fakes
They'll send you down if it mean they ass on the line, hol'up

All money ain't good money
What you sacrifice ain't worth what you get from it
Believe me, what you do you gon reap
Don't make it where you can't go to sleep
Can't keep gambling feeding baby on dope money
Make yo money turn to fasho money
Better grow money instead of tryna blow money
Fuck around end up with no money

Keep an eye all around cuz people hate to see you make it
If they see an opportunity to snake you they take it
So I deal with real niggas, no fakes
Only got one life, every move I make is high stakes
Got my family to think about and provide for...
Got responsibilities and dreams to strive for
Ain't got no quit in me, my kids depend on me
If they see me giving up, what they gon listen for
When I tell em to listen up, and they see me as less
You can intimidate, but that ain't the same as respect...
Then you gotta look your woman in the eyes
Cuz she ain't about to let your ass look between her thighs
You can hang that shit up, I know it sound fucked up
But it can make you or can break you and I wish you good luck
Cuz it's pressure being a man like burning both ends of the candle
Focus on handling what you can handle

All money ain't good money
What you sacrifice ain't worth what you get from it
Believe me, what you do you gon reap
Don't make it where you can't go to sleep
Can't keep gambling feeding baby on dope money
Make yo money turn to fasho money
Better grow money instead of tryna blow money
Fuck around end up with no money
