You know, the longer I'm gone
The better I love you when I come home
You know what I'm sayin'
I'm just tryna do what I gotta do
I know it be tough sometimes
Baby, the Godfather got you
Now peep it lady, it ain't no secret, I'm a player
That's consequences for fucking with a real nigga, baby
It don't take a lot to keep me unarrested
Protect your investments and keep me away from the stressin'
Then we can be together
It ain't no secret, I'm a street nigga
Street credit and a degree
You need a little street in you
I ain't perfect, I know I pack and bag it
But I come with a big heart from the start
Every move I make is strategy
A lot of times when you be mad at me
It's not for me, it's for the family
That's how I'm buildin', just the man in me
Yeah, that's the man in me
So put your tired head on my chest
A real nigga's in your presence, now you can rest
Just know you blessed when you alone
I ain't runnin' the streets just 'cause I'm gone
I'm tryna get to the money and come home
Baby, run the streets
Baby, baby, you could get to the money
But you better come back to me
I know that you're 'bout it
But I'd rather have you in one piece
You be doin' your thing
Get it, I get it, the streets callin' your name
Just make sure that them bitches stay in they lane
Don't make me doubt you, baby, yeah, yeah
That hustle got you shinin', my baby, I get it
Out of there only impress them simple bitches
I say a prayer for you before I lay my head
'Cause everybody on the block know you got bread
Spendin' money ain't better than spendin' time
And keepin' me icy won't keep me in fuckin' line, yeah
You said you love me, I heard you the first time
I waited to say it back to make sure you were behind
Now tell me if I'm wrong 'cause I
Been in the streets since the morning
Got a vision of gettin' money but my baby lonely
We only get one life and nobody gon' help a nigga
They start feelin' like they're the reason the streets respect a nigga
But I do it for my babies and my lady
I do it for my family, fuck friends 'cause they all shady
I do it for the bread, not the love
Baby, the Godfather got this shit out the mud
Baby, run the streets
Baby, baby, you could get to the money
But you better come back to me
I know that you're 'bout it
But I'd rather have you in one piece
You be doin' your thing
Get it, I get it, the streets callin' your name
Just make sure that them bitches stay in they lane
Don't make me doubt you, baby, yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't make me doubt you, baby, yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't make me doubt you, baby
When you get it, I got it
Oh, and I know that
When you get it, I got it
