OT the Real
Can’t Afford to Lose
[Chorus]
When I’m down to my last
And there’s no one comin’ through
And the rent still ain’t saved yet, but it’s ’bout to be due
And my people all depend on me
I can’t afford to lose, I got you
[Verse 1]
Slid past investigations
When they gathered information
I came back with reservations
And I smashed their expectations
Stuffin’ cash in the ventilations
Of these boarded up houses
Like we mastered restoration
I got bags I had just waitin’
I got problems imma solve
The plug tried to front my dawgs
They robbed him, said it was off
CO said squat, grab your balls, turn your head and cough
Now I count bread in lofts
We whisper, we never talk
Life’s funny, but it’s so short like Kevin Hart
I know you’re hungry, but you’ll get gone off that weapons charge
On parole, you’re spinnin’ blocks no more, you’re spinnin’ yards
And after 2 or 3 b-days they stop sendin’ cards and pictures (Facts)
People listen, every verse is a scripture
If you a boss, you gotta think for every person that’s with ya
Cause if they dirty, they gon’ try to say they workin’ it with ya
Then all the work that you put in, starts workin’ against ya
[Chorus]
When I’m down to my last
And there’s no one comin’ through
And the rent still ain’t saved yet, but it’s ’bout to be due
And my people all depend on me
I can’t afford to lose, I got you
[Verse 2]
These rappers can’t see me like John Cena
I was in the yard smokin’ Tookie, readin’ Don Diva (Facts)
Came home robbin’, wasn’t doin’ features
Alls I know’s I can’t let my bro meet my bro
Cause he gets jawns cheaper
Promised my daughter that I won’t leave her (Uh huh)
So if it’s on just know we gon’ leave ya (Uh huh)
I came up off the nosebleeders
When I made parole, I left my bro sneakers
‘Round here, you showin’ weakness they gon’ take advantage
We takin’ chances, so I cake advances
On my wrist is 30k just dancin’, yeah
[Chorus]
When I’m down to my last
And there’s no one comin’ through
And the rent still ain’t saved yet, but it’s ’bout to be due
And my people all depend on me
I can’t afford to lose, I got you (I got you)
[Outro]
Cocaine was the case that they gave me
Told you I wouldn’t let it change me (I told you)
Icerocks, let’s go
