They Don't Want Me To Win

(album: He's The Christian, I'm The Rapper - 2020)

[Murs:]
From the same streets, in the same city
Dudes'll hang with me but they hate with me
Used to slang with me, used to bang with me
Say they gang with me but they ain't really
A thug changes and love changes
And your best friends'll become strangers
My circle's small and my dream's big
My day ones are my three kids
I ain't got time for the politics
With my own hands I bear all of this
I don't need you, I don't need them
Don't wanna smoke weed, don't wanna be friends
I won't bow down and king them
When I pray that's where my knees been
I got my own squad with no frauds
And that's on God, I'm tryna please Him

[Dee-1:]
They don't really want me to win
They don't really want me to win
Don't want me to win
They don't really want me to win
You ain't never been my friend
You don't want me to win
No, they don't really want me to win
Don't ask where I've been
I've been on ten
They don't really want me to win
They don't really want me to win
Don't want me to win
Him and him and him
They don't really want me to win
Don't want me to win
You ain't never been my friend
You don't really want me to win
Don't go ask them
No, they don't really want me to win
They don't really want me to win
Don't want me to win
They don't really want me to win
You ain't never been my friend
You don't want me to win

Uh, yeah
I know you don't like it when you see I'm on the come up
You don't like to see me on the charts doing numbers
You don't like to know I'm self-made
I don't need your little stem
Me, I'm good, you can't even score a comma
You don't like to see me on the road but I stay booked
Busting on the Gram, YouTube even Facebook
Big money Uno I could show you how the cake look
Smile when you see me but I'm knowing it's a fake look
Hey, look, maybe you don't like who I'm reppin
You rather me rap bout drugs, not a positive message
Flutter with blessings, I'm only here to show you a lesson
You either with me or you ain't, I'm to cool to be guessing
Man, my whole life came full circle like a car wheel
Momma look at me her baby blew like a Tar Heel
Scared of no enemy in it I know I'll survive
Cause God got my back and my front and my side up!

They don't really want me to win
They don't really want me to win
Don't want me to win
They don't really want me to win
You ain't never been my friend
You don't want me to win
No they don't really want me to win
Don't ask where I've been
I've been on ten
They don't really want me to win
They don't really want me to win
Don't want me to win
Him and him and him
They don't really want me to win
Don't want me to win
You ain't never been my friend
You don't really want me to win
Don't go ask them
No, they don't really want me to win
They don't really want me to win
Don't want me to win
They don't really want me to win
You ain't never been my friend
You don't want me to win
