Had To Be

Thank the streets for having me
We been getting to that money
Rapidly
Long Live my brother
We went through some tragedy
Soul ties to my block
I'm a solider
Had to Be, and
How we made it through
Had to be God
It had to be, aye
Couple niggas thought this shit was sweet
They had to see, and
I'm just out here being everything I had to be
And I'm a do this shit my way
Don't care who mad at me, and
Bout my paper this shit can turn into savagery

And I got ties to it
I play dumb
But I ain't blind to it
Took my losses
Now we up for real
I had to grind through it
That's my brother
When he score, we score
Cause I throw dimes to him
In the dark
Ain't let them dim my light
I had to shine through it
Girl I'm blessed
Cut them niggas off'
Then went and cut a check
Dealt a bad hand
Still played my cards
Ain't even touch the deck
Motion heavy
It's so hard to take my foot up off they neck
Got my weight up on these niggas
I wasn't even trying to flex
I'm just me
That's the only nigga that I'm trying to be
Money, motion and a dime piece
That's all I'm trying to see
Hating on your situation
They get grilled for trying to beef
All that fuck shit that you put on wax
It don't apply to me
Back to back
We get cheese for real
And we don't fuck with rats
You just act
We been out here for a minute
That's a fact
Just relax
Promise I'm in shape
Can't help my pockets fat
Feel like YC
If we talking paper
I got racks on racks

Thank the streets for having me
We been getting to that money
Rapidly
Long Live my brother
We went through some tragedy
Soul ties to my block
I'm a solider
Had to Be, and
How we made it through
Had to be God
It had to be, aye
Couple niggas thought this shit was sweet
They had to see, and

And I'm a do this shit my way
Don't care who mad at me, and
