lyrics

VERSE 1:
I gotta say I'd rather be respected than loved
Because people will mistake you off what they think than knowing what you're capable of
and they'll let what they love about you take over the things that you're willing to do
so i'd rather have people know wassup with each side of me
than for one to get obsessed with just part of what I used to be
and honestly, i can give a fuck about what you think about me and what im doin
cuz im on the grind, puttin in work into this dream that im pursuin'
and i don't plan on losin' cuz there ain't no stoppin when it comes down to it mayne
more hate just means another day in this game
and i didn't come in it trynna make friends
so don't you get upset when i don't reply to yo texts
my life revolves around love and respect and ive learned both can get you killed
show too much or too little of it and end up getting ya ass peeled
now lets gon keep it real
im just out here trynna earn every daily meal but . .

HOOK:
I gotta say I'd rather be respected than loved
and if you gon judge me, judge me off what I'm doin and not what I've done
and honestly, my heart's become numb
and at times... I'm just feelin like I'm done (x2)

VERSE 2: Oscar Roque
I feel like quitten
Witness me chasin a million
That prolly never existed
It's just hard to see that vision
When u come from where da sun don't shine
Nd moms keep tellin me I'm runnin out of time
It's like I done worked my ass off for nothing in this bitch
While my nigga in da trap rich off whippen wit his wrist
Nd the critics might be right i should've chose a different route
Or they can suck my dick i ain't ever backin down
Got a million on my mental
I ain't stoppin till I get it
Only way that I won't see it is if a mothafukka kill me
I done worked too many years just to throw it at all away
I've gave you my whole life
Showed my scars and showed my pain
My mind can move boulders
Swear frustration is my Motive
Negativity around me I'm just tryna stay focused
Cus when u loose focus life can turn into a bitch
Nd if you gotta sell ya soul to make a million you ain't shit!

HOOK: x2
