Never Surrender |
| Keep your circle tight |
| Trust no one, nobody (nobody, nobody, no no no) |
| DJ Khaled! |
| Gotta be careful who you trusting |
| Be aware of your surroundings when you hustling |
| Them niggas smiling at you ain’t your friends, dawg |
| All the real ones are dead or in the pen y’all |
| You fuck with dude, he your day one |
| Almost had it all then the day comes |
| When they walking through your house with the strap out |
| Pointing at your head, got the bread then you black out (yeah) |
| Bright lights down the hallways |
| Left his best friend for dead for the small wage (ay) |
| They say that every dog’s got a day coming |
| It’s like he seen a ghost but he ain’t say nothing |
| Eyes wide shut like you looking at me |
| Window pane to the soul say they niggas happy |
| But the pictures say them words we ain’t trying to stomach |
| The homie didn’t keep it one hundred |
| The cops doing roundups, say they got a suspect |
| Finally got a name now, I’m stunned thinkin fuck that (fuck, that) |
| For the money, niggas murder what they close to (get this nigga) |
| Entire families, these motherfuckers ghost you |
| Smoke you, was it worth what the life was? |
| Just prepare for the payback cause it strikes cuz |
| Was it worth what that life was? |
| Prepare for the payback when it strikes cuz |
| Cause when you need it the most |
| Ain’t no one ever around |
| Cold world, cold world |
| Yo, the pain’s unbearable, remains unawareable |
| He fuck around, jump off a building if you dare him to |
| The greats they done already killed him, who you compare him to |
| To really figure out what he said will take a year or two |
| Family over everything, skills over politics |
| He don’t need the accolades as long as you acknowledge it |
| Just playing the hand you was dealt, no aces |
| Betrayal is worse than death in most cases |
| The world is filled with hypocrites, that’s so racist |
| Multiple shots to the face, no chasers |
| Mad cause you blew up quick and you excited |
| Your man that you grew up with get you indicted |
| This was your nigga, yo, for him you let the trigger go |
| Found out at the trial they got audio and video |
| Shit don’t always happen how you plan it |
| Get jammed up and really find out who your fam is |
| You could feel the picture, you don’t need to see the canvas |
| That nigga Jay’ll Hawk you, he don’t even play for Kansas |
| You know when it’s someone you love the hurt’s pure |
| You front tryna hold it in, it hurts more |
| He was right there back-to-back with me, my first war |
| Even had a crack spot together, the first floor |
| Used to buzz em in then meet him right by the first door |
| That was 'prolly a year before I went on my first tour |
| Friendship was worth more than a couple of ounces |
| You was 'sposed to be with me arguing with the bouncers |
| Instead you ended up somewhere far in the mountains |
| Talking 'about what we was doing, what we was counting |
| Nothing but old pictures of old sixes |
| Old BM’s with the kits, old Schnitzer’s |
| Two sides, both wishes |
| Karma is the sister of life, they both bitches |
| See there’s a story in my life |
| There’s a story in my pain |
| There’s a story in my tears, oh-oh ohh |
| There’s a story in me |
| Yeah, for life |
| Lord forgive me for my sins, I was chasin' ends |
| And I’m into makin' money, I ain’t into making friends |
| Cause these niggas rattin', I ain’t finna take a chance |
| Homie said he 'bout that action, they grab him, he take the stand |
| Damn, say loyalty make a man |
| Got a homie and he told, I don’t even shake his hand |
| I don’t even crack a smile, knew him since a child |
| Man this game so foul but niggas made vows |
| To a code I never break, ridin' in the heavyweight |
| Thirty-six O’s in a bird, call it featherweight |
| Never on time, when I show up I be ready late |
| Niggas got fat while we starved, they already ate |
| And I’m trying to get full, masks on, clip full |
| If he got the money, we attack him like a pit bull |
| We sellin' soft, we sellin' hard like it’s a brick store |
| On my dick, nigga, thought that’s what your bitch for |
| Hah! |
| My pain ain’t never been told (ain't never been told) |
| All the success that I’m suffering from |
| Came from this knowledge I sold (this knowledge I know) |
| My family fucks with me |
| And fought the enemy that stood in my way (my way) |
| That’s why I don’t trust nobody |
| And I doubt you’ll ever see that day |
| 'Fore I surrender to you (surrender) |
| Surrender to you (surrender) |
| Surrender to you (surrender to you, which I will never do) |
| Cause when you need it the most |
| Ain’t no one ever around (nobody's around) |
| Cold world (cold world) cold world (mmm, yes it is, yeah) |
| And the ones that you keep close |
| Are the ones that’ll take you down (always take you down) |
| Cold world (cooooold) a cold cold world |
| 'Fore I surrender to you (surrender) |
| Surrender to you (surrender) |
| Surrender to you (surrender to you) |
| Fore I surrender to you (surrender) |
| Surrender to you (surrender) |
| Surrender to you (surrender to you, which I will never do) |
| Ohh-ohhh ohhh-whooooa |
| Ohh-ohhhh (ohh-ohhhh) ohh-ohhhhh |
| See there’s a story in my life (hey) (surrender) |
| There’s a story in my pain (hey) (surrender) |
| There’s a story in my tears, oh-oh ohh (surrender) |
| There’s a story in me |
| I won’t surrender, I won’t surrender, ohh no no no |
