I got to do this for my daughter, man I got to do this for my daughter
Man, it's a penny for your thoughts And a dollar for your dreams
Stay out of other niggas' pockets It ain't always what it seems
Man, it ain't always what it seems But it's a penny for your thoughts
And a dollar for your dreams Are you really alive if you ain't livin'
Either bein' down and out Or you locked up in the prison
When you broke and
Nobody's there to hold down for assistance When you don't got shit, nobody wanna listen
Steady stressin' in your mind that it's all over
I just remember Sean Carter wasn't always Hova
I'ma hold you down because you never held me up
And every time I fall, you was there to help me up
Shit, you came through, niggas tried to set me up
And you ain't let them wet me up And we ain't have a Chevy truck, we still walkin
No cell phones, Brody, we still talkin' And we ain't have it for the bud , but we was still sparkin
Lost in life, I damn near lost my wife Keep doin' the same shit, f*ck around and lose my life
And I can't do that, cause I got a daughter So I move smarter, make a nigga grind harder
Can't do the same shit as our father, she'll go farther
No, bench straight to a starter From everything that I taught her
Cause Instagram, Twitter, man, it got these bitches lost
Or they online worryin' bout what the latest kicks cost
Or these lil' dumb niggas sellin' nosebleed
Or a bitch nigga tellin' from a nosebleed
She wouldn't want
For shit, man, I know what my girl need
I know what my girl need
Said it's a penny for your thoughts And a dollar for your dreams
Stay out of other niggas' pockets
It ain't always what it seems
And it ain't always what it seems
Said it's a penny for your thoughts And a dollar for your dreams
Dollar for your dreams
Dollar for your dreams
Dollar for your dreams
A penny for your thoughts, and a dollar for your dreams
I gotta do it for my baby, so I'm on these beats
Man, I'm done worryin' bout shoes, likes, or tweets
Man, I ain't get a chance to sleep a couple nights a week
Walkin' trips late for Duchess, just to roll up the weed
Said, watch your back and don't get caught slippin
Can't go home broke or baby mama gon' be trippin
I've been chill lately, cause a nigga on a mission
Writing up in the kitchen, so I'm spittin' instead of whippin
And pitchin', and out there on the block
Cause one day it's gotta stop, and I gotta be a pops
Can't let my daughter grow and do the stupid shit these hoes do
I'ma be a man and raise my baby how I'm supposed to
It's bout where you at, my nigga, not where you close to
All that money you spending, brody, what them clothes do
Wonder why when bitches started plotting, they chose you
From G.I. Joe's to IG hoes, they posing and they froze you
Said it's a penny for your thoughts And a dollar for your dreams
Stay out of other niggas' pockets, it ain't always what it seems
Man, it ain't always what it seems
Said it's a penny for your thoughts And a dollar for your dreams
Dollar for your dreams
Dollar for your dreams
Dollar for your dreams
Penny for your thoughts And a dollar for your dreams
I'm old enough to know better, young enough to not give a f*ck
But I'ma keep chasing my dreams so we can live it up
Cause now we chasing bucks, at 16 chasing sluts
Little fools, we used to go to school just to pick em up
So niggas know what this about, at the school a nigga frontin
Gotta run up in his mouth, but nowadays I gotta take a different route
So I'm writing non-stop so I can move my grandma out of my dad's
Sleeping on the couch, and my daughter gotta have the world
You know I love her to death, and that's my precious little girl
And you know how we grew up, so this my question to the world
How you feel you know it's real when you pressured for the pearls
Tryna switch the lane, and play a different game
Struggled for years, you say you good, but it seem the same
You go insane, searching for change, in the couch or in your life it all starts up in the brain, my nigga, let's get it right
Don't do stupid shit out of spite
Go home, think about it, then regret the shit your whole life
If that's your man, you will hold him down to that day
If that's your lady, what more I really gotta say
