By Chance

(album: Let The Trap Say Amen - 2018)

[Verse Simmonds:]
Cause nothing is by chance
Give me the strength to understand the things you see that I can't
Had to call my problems and I put em all in your hands
I know that this is your plan
If it was easy no I wouldn't be a strong man
Now I put my bets on you cause nothin's by chance

[Lecrae:]
I started off in my apartment
Me & T dot in the kitchen
I was working on the beats and he was working on his writtens
We just hope someone would listen
Go that tat say 116
Ain't have nothing but a mission
Missed a month or two of rent, but woah...
We done came a long way now
God be listen when I pray now
Came from country roads and riding on the train now
Now we in a private plane ain't no flexing I'm just sayin, wow...
So tell me what you waiting for
You ain't gotta sell them thangs no more
Went to Philly told the city free meek milly
If he ever need to talk hope he know I'm out here praying for 'em

[Verse Simmonds:]
Cause nothing is by chance
Give me the strength to understand the things you see that I can't
Had to call my problems and I put em all in your hands
I know that this is your plan
If it was easy no I wouldn't be a strong man
Now I put my bets on you cause nothin's by chance

[Lecrae:]
Got two sisters they my ladies
They was both born in the 80's
They struggles, they got babies
But they all in ain't no maybes
Seen em hustle from the bottom
Getting to do it on the daily
It's enough to drive you crazy
Even with that new Mercedes, yeah
Seen em grind til they shoes scuff
My Shawty used to drive the school bus
Never act she too good for it
Sleeping on the floor when they was shooting in the hood bruh
Lil Mama what you waiting for
Start that business on go and get it girl
Don't let em tell you can't do it
Brought you to it bring you thru it
You know God help you wit it girl

[Verse Simmonds:]
Cause nothing is by chance
Give me the strength to understand the things you see that I can't
Had to call my problems and I put em all in your hands
I know that this is your plan
If it was easy no I wouldn't be a strong man
Now I put my bets on you cause nothin's by chance
