At All Costs Video (MV)

Thirteen years ago a nigga moved to Atlanta
Opportunity waiting my niggas ain't understand it
Feeling like Trey Songz I gotta go right now
I don't wanna leave but I'll be back to hold you down
But little did I know the pain my absence would cause
Tryna be so successful I could support all of my dogs
But you know it's in a man's nature to walk in his pride
So he aint quick to tell you all the pain he feeling inside
I came back niggas pilled up battling depression
You ever talk to a nigga so f*cked up he barely present
These niggas shells of themselves I barely could recognize em
Wondering if I stayed around would I fall victim to the same demise
And I carry y'all's burden when you hurt I'm bruised too
Thinkin all my win wins turned into a lose lose
If I could go back would I choose me or choose you
Now I got blueprints y'all ain't used to but you can use too

On god yeah
I know I'm always moving non stop yeah
Sacrifices just to be on top yeah
Just know that I will never leave you lost yeah
I'll protect you at all costs yeah
I know I'm always moving non stop yeah
Sacrifices just to be on top yeah
Just know that I will never leave you lost yeah
I'll protect you at all costs

My whole life I had to grind
So focused on money the only way to get what's mine
But as I got older seems my values got reassigned
Two kids in different states instated a different state of mine
Now all I want to gain is time
My son growin tryna show em how to move with a queen
My daughter sleep I'm sneaking out she get confused when I leave
But she starting to catch on and get upset when I'm gone
And when I leave it seem my son start disrespecting his moms
I gotta play all these roles I hit the booth and change capes
And I swear they moms link to start shit on the same day
I bite my tongue now when it's beef aint used to moving that way
But no one eats if Breeze is gone I play it safe to keep em safe
I gotta take care of they moms even when we don't get along
Cuz her peace and well being directly effects my son
And her peace and well being directly effects my daughter
I'm working so they ain't gotta just part of being a father

On god yeah
I know I'm always moving non stop yeah
Sacrifices just to be on top yeah
Just know that I will never leave you lost yeah
I'll protect you at all costs yeah
I know I'm always moving non stop yeah
Sacrifices just to be on top yeah
Just know that I will never leave you lost yeah
I'll protect you at all costs

And I dont understand they run their mouth on the gram
Bout how they treat a black man how we need to design a plan
Take pride in raising their hand then ball it into a fist
Talk about how they took a stand but they feet ain't moved ever since
Yall useless with your excuse the new nuece is called inclusion
These actionless activists who complain without a solution.
See real niggas move in silence y'all love the f*cking facades
Who brag bout they clap backs please hold your f*cking applause
Fake ass support I worked 2 jobs rubbed shoulders with business owners
Took their knowledge and their bread
Till they could no longer own us
No loaners I took the funds I generated myself
Put my own niggas on creating generational wealth
Now my business hires blacks
And Jerwuan don't get overlooked
Better resume than John well then Jerwuan is getting booked
Yall systems rigged I made my own
Those same niggas who wasn't allowed in
I pay em more than you bitches ain't shit you can do about it

On god yeah
I know I'm always moving non stop yeah
Sacrifices just to be on top yeah
Just know that I will never leave you lost yeah
Protect me at all costs yeah
I know I'm always moving non stop yeah
Sacrifices just to be on top yeah
Just know that I will never leave you lost yeah
Protect me at all costs
