10 Years, 1 Summer

[Intro]
10 Years 1 Summer
Don't let the game take you under
Somebody gotta tell you 'bout this shit
Who better than me? listen up
It's called the game for a reason, you gotta know how to play it
You gotta learn when to sit down sometimes
Niggas thinking bout that money, ain't thinking bout the risk
Listen to your gut man

[Verse 1]
Gotta know when to hold 'em, fold 'em, and throw em away
Listen to your gut when it tell you "not today"
This for my niggas that chose the narcotics way
I pray after each sale you make it home safe
To get big boy money, some niggas can't wait
You ain't thinking bout the risk, you thinking bout bank
You ain't thinking bout your life you thinking bout skanks
You wanna hit the bar sippin on champagne
Lettin' niggas know you got cocaine and whole thangs
You in love with the fame and the lifestyle
Like the feds ain't real you better pipe down
Shit I was like that as a youngin, who am I to judge
But the goal is to get money and dodge a judge
They indicted my mans and cuz didn't budge

[Hook]
Don't let the game take you under
Don't let the game take you under
Don't let the game take you under
10 Years just to ball 1 Summer
10 Years just to ball 1 Summer
10 Years just to ball 1 Summer
10 Years is worth ballin' 1 Summer

[Verse 2]
You a drug dealer now, big dope runner
All winter you been plotting on the whole summer
Like I'ma drop this whip, fuck that bitch
Cop this watch and this chain and flip more bricks
Talkin' like your phone can't get tapped
Movin' sloppy like they can't sit and watch your whole trap
Is you getting followed or you just trippin'?
Your gut told you yes but you still went against it
Shit you gotta ball this summer for the bitches and impress a bunch of lame ass niggas
That was all til them [?] vans game
Now you fighting for your life shit looking trife
Feeling like you got gutted with a butchers knife
Thinkin' shit wasn't worth getting taken under

[Hook]
Don't let the game take you under
Don't let the game take you under
Don't let the game take you under
10 Years just to ball 1 Summer
10 Years just to ball 1 Summer
10 Years just to ball 1 Summer
10 Years is worth ballin' 1 Summer
