Play It Safe

(album: Evergreen Wildchild 2 - 2020)

(Saucey, you a genius)
(Jai beats on the track, boy)

Been tryna stay awake
True story, I been cutting off niggas every day
Can't trust a soul, I'm paranoid, I gotta play it safe
Twin on probation, can't leave the city, that's another case
But I ain't worried, if I need him, he coming right away
Somebody pass me a lighter, I'm just tryna see a brighter day
Lil' one say he need another pair, he had to burn up his Michael J's
Give me a mic and let me rock the stage
I'm just tryna change my nigga life, he been on the block for days
All I know is get paid
Like, nah for real, I ain't been to sleep in six days
What you been doing? Tryna run that money six ways
Heard they been sliding through the 6 with 'bout six Ks
First nigga walk up out that bitch, gon' get his shit blazed

Could've fucked one of the opps baby mama but the bitch played
And I done been a lot of shit but I ain't never been bitch made
And my nephews growing so I hustle, make sure them kids straight
If they kill me, let it be a cold case
And I know my niggas gon' retaliate
Heart made of gold but I always seem to get fucked over
Dried up tears on my shoulder from a head I was holding
It get colder at night when I was running wild with them vultures
Don't you say you ain't mean it when you did when you posted it

Been tryna stay awake
True story, I been cutting off niggas every day
Can't trust a soul, I'm paranoid, I gotta play it safe
Twin on probation, can't leave the city, that's another case
But I ain't worried, if I need him, he coming right away
Somebody pass me a lighter, I'm just tryna see a brighter day
Lil' one say he need another pair, he had to burn up his Michael J's
Give me a mic and let me rock the stage
I'm just tryna change my nigga life, he been on the block for days
All I know is get paid
Like, nah for real, I ain't been to sleep in six days
What you been doing? Tryna run that money six ways
Heard they been sliding through the 6 with 'bout six Ks
First nigga walk up out that bitch, gon' get his shit blazed

Exactly
Fuck whoever after me
Don't run, I ain't no athlete
Tryna send a nigga where the pastor be
My brother had the torch, I learned the game and he passed it to me
I don't give a fuck how good your music sound, I ain't rapping for free
They like, "Poppa, what you taxing?" I don't know, but I'm tight for features
All that acting but scenes ain't make the movie, them bitches deleted
You know all my bitches conceited, and my weed the greatest
Straight drop, who clean the cleaners?
