Respect comes 1st
Man I got it from the dirt
But respect comes 1st

New baby please pray for me

Through everything
Raised by a single mother and older sista
Through the struggle she showed us love, and never dissed us
I guess I missed the meeting when they say that family matters
Cause when she got sick it only seemed as if my family scattered
My heart is shattered as I write this verse
Cause when you have to relive these feelings of your life shit hurts
I'm feeling, worthless at times so I resort to my music
Putting my life on this paper praying to God that I don't lose it
Been a nuisance since my adolescent years and I swear I'm tryna change my ways
But the fact of the matter is I can't handle sitting on my ass and not getting paid
Imma go and get my bag, man I got it from the dirt
Respect come 1st imma show you my worth
Life will never get away from me
New baby please pray for me
Through everything
Through everything
No movie scenes
No diamond rings
Life will never get away from me
New baby please pray for me
Through everything
Through everything
No movie scenes
No diamond rings
Life will never get away from me new baby please pray for me
Through everything
Baby I'm just a man that's focused on the bag
I'd gladly give up my dreams to focus on the fam
I'm thankful for all my fans, and the friends that I have
Thinking back to when I used to get it all off the ave
My momma she found my stash lots of cash and a pistol
Every since that day her nightstand had them tissues
I guess I never really stressed the issue
Of how someone's actions can create an illness that could possibly turn the world against you
But I'm gonna get through to these better days
Cause self loathing and self medicating just ain't the better way
I gotta shake it I gotta let go of the past
To be a better father than the one I had
Imma go and get my bag man I got it from the dirt
Respect come 1st imma show you my worth
Life will never get away from me
New baby please pray for me
Through everything
Niggas dead bloodshed is all I know
And we all chase the bag and some I blow
So I pray to the lord for another day
Had to do some bad things, ain't no other way
No other way no other way
Had to do some bad things
Money Gang and you know
Money Gang and you know
