Wasn't Born Rich

(album: Deeper Than Rap - 2022)

(Mm, Eli)
No white flag
No white flag
They wanna promote the peace
But we stepping now

They left us in the trenches, they didn't reach out
Now when we step, it's Balencis on my feet now
Bodies drop, they wanna promote the peace now
We stay down, tables turn, nigga, we now
They hating me 'cause they ain't me and I notice it
And you don't even gotta tell me 'cause I know I'm lit
I had to get it out the mud, I wasn't born rich
I'm tryna ball with my niggas, we been scoring
Nigga, we been' scoring
I can play the point guard, the shooting guard, the small forward center (In the center)
I been fighting demons, I can't look up in the mirror (No, no)
I'ma catch a body, if they play, I'ma send 'em (I'ma catch a body)
Demon time, if you ever seen us in a Wraith (Skrrt, skrrt, skrrt)
After the fat lady sing, then life goes on (Then life goes on)
Eight years fighting a case, my pops strong
Make a million in the trap, my nigga, you went gold (Nigga went gold)
Monclers in the summer, my nigga, it get cold
All this blood, sweat, and tears, let me wipe my eyes (Let me)
Put my pain in these cups like true thugs cry (Pour my pain up)
Left blood in these streets like a red stop sign
If I don't ever make it big then it's not my time (No, no)
I ain't gon' lie, I be lost in my feelings (In my feelings)
Money don't fix your pain or heal it
Thug mansion, or do life up in prison (Do life)
Real is rare like one in a million

They left us in the trenches, they didn't reach out
Now when we step, it's Balencis on my feet now
Bodies drop, they wanna promote the peace now
We stay down, tables turn, nigga, we now
They hating me 'cause they ain't me and I notice it
And you don't even gotta tell me 'cause I know I'm lit
I had to get it out the mud, I wasn't born rich
I'm tryna ball with my niggas, we been scoring
Nigga, we been' scoring

Tell the opps we still scoring
We play the block, we took the shots, now we touring, that's major
I could lose faith but I'd rather lose paper (Rather lose)
And if she can't do it, then another bitch replace her
What goes and comes around, they say karma is a bitch (Karma is a)
All these snakes in my grass, I'm feeling like Money Mitch
Juke moved tryna put a pussy nigga in the mix
Go to war with whoever, we never had no picks
And I'm the nigga they hate to see win (Yeah)
Free my dawgs doing calendars in the pen
Lifestyle wicked, I don't really recommend (No, no)
Money change you like money change yo' friends (It change you)
Everything in the dark gon' come to the light (They gon' come to the light)
All the dirty sodas got me cleaning the Sprite (I'm cleaning the Sprite)
Said my life ain't right, I'm just living this life (I'm living)
We ain't asking 'bout the cars, we just paying the price (Just paying)

They left us in the trenches, they didn't reach out
Now when we step, it's Balencis on my feet now
Bodies drop, they wanna promote the peace now
We stay down, tables turn, nigga, we now
They hating me 'cause they ain't me and I notice it
And you don't even gotta tell me 'cause I know I'm lit
I had to get it out the mud, I wasn't born rich
I'm tryna ball with my niggas, we been scoring
Nigga, we been' scoring
