U Wasn’t There

[Intro: Dave East]
Uh-huh, too many, too many
Tryna win
Too many lost
Smoke like I got smoked, nigga
Whatever, life [?]

[Verse 1: Dave East, Xavy Rusan]
This feel like that 50 Cent, 99, How To Rob shit
Mama on me, tellin' me, "Nigga, go get a job, shit"
9 to 5, wasn't hirin', that made us rob shit
Crown Fried for dinner, you know, wing and a thought shit
Mama bought us clothes, our reaction, this not no fly shit
With five dollars, that's a nick bag or burger and fry shit
Sittin' in class, noddin' off, I was on some high shit
I lost a lot of homies but they never leave my conscience
Shots started clappin', like acne how they broke out
Artists see us, take no less than five percent when we roll out
If I got it, I split it with family, I don't hold out
Police investigatin' 'bout action and I don't know 'bout
Couplе bodies done got straightenеd like a blow out
I ain't never been there, they just told me that shit's sold out
Her nose sniffin', she start actin' different when the coke 'round
Used to front back when they had it, fast forward, niggas broke now (Yo, look)

[Verse 2: Xavy Rusan]
Niggas rewrappin' shit that we ain't buy the first time
Girl, I need some neck, I give a fuck about your birth sign
I ain't gotta force it, I be shinin' in the pitch black
Once she fuckin' with me, you might never get your bitch back
This is not a sad song, niggas from the gutter winnin'
Gold suade turban on with my peanut butter linen
Niggas never helpin' in the moments when you need 'em to
'Til you get some motion and they swear that they believe in you
Brodie said he dropped a opp, told me he be gone again
Knew he was for real 'cause he said he put it on the fen
I was in the depths of Hell, couldn't even phone a friend
You gon' take a hundred L's way before you known to win
Know I wouldn't lie about it, find a route and grind it out
People who been fuckin' 'round all the sudden findin' out
Tell me what your mind about, how you plan to make it real?
Flexin' for the 'Gram, but you should know that you can't fake a feel
Bet I take a million way before I ever take a deal
Realest nigga in it, I ain't worried 'bout no fake appeal
How we showin' love and got these motherfuckers hatin' still?
I've been takin' chances knowin' that my God'll take the wheel, for real
