Gotta Maintain

I was like, Lord, why have you forsaken me?

All these niggas, all these bitches out here hating me

And I don't even know what I did

Just trying to be daddy, I don't even know it's my kid

That's why I be like these hoes ain't shit

And once your bros start roaching off, your bros can't quit

Stood up for so many people, I'm like, bro, can't sit

But when I need help, why is help what Ro can't get?

Well, I ain't tripping, it's that one deep entertainment shit

It's all on me, none of that point and finger shit

They wanna see me fall, but these bitches don't have to see me fall

I gotta maintain

They don't wanna see me shine

They gon' have to see me shine

It's cause I grind

I gotta maintain

Yeah, it's church in here this evening

And I'm so glad I'm breathing

It's my season

I gotta maintain

Gives a fuck about you haters

I am all about my papers I gotta maintain Gives a fuck

About you haters I am all about my paper Oh yeah they

Was laughing at my clothes I couldn afford what they had

Now they can't afford what I got, they see me winning, they mad

I was homeless while they were living with their mom and their dad

Now they would work for food, that's just the type of karma they had

Y'all know my story, it ain't no different from

Any of my brothers and sisters that struggle

We deserve to be in that situation

That's if we don't get the fuck up and go hustle

I was just hungry, I was just looking for food

All of a sudden not looking for trouble

Baby don't understand why I be like

I'ma go to work, I ain't got no time to cuddle

Hey man, say man, look I'm terrified

I'm scared than the bitch

Cause every dollar I got me

A person that's not me is trying to take half of my shit

Hell no, I didn't trust them niggas that was working for me

Because they were scared of J

It be so many devils trying to get you fake

Having to see the real when you better pray

I gotta maintain

They don't wanna see me shine

They gon' have to see me shine, it's cause I grind

Yeah, it's church in here this evening

And I'm so glad I'm breathin', it's my season

Give the fuck about you haters

I am all about my paper

Give the fuck about you haters

I am all about my paper
