Stayed The Same

Lyrics

[Verse 1] With your back against the wall, you start scheming on your dawg I just make a couple plays, make a couple power calls You ain't got no power, dawg, you ain't plugged with the mob You can't get no work with credit, you too lazy for a job But you quick to scam your mans, quick to ask for bands Quick to fuck it up, and want another chance Quick to con your fam, damn But talking down on another man Fronting like some hustler all on Instagram You should've stacked (stacked), but you was thinking ball (ball) Thinking 'bout yourself, instead of tryna pay your dawg off Then wonder why you got no crutches when you fall off I remain the same nigga, dawg, through it all Money get low, I don't steal from my bro I don't start feeling entitled, like another man owe Me a damn thang, I just do my thang Pop up in new chains, make them starе at me strange Like how hе do that? How he in that coupe with the roof back? That work was hella high, how the fuck that nigga move that? Shot out of town, threw some money up, then I flew back Had to jump back in my bag, I had got too lax Posted at the trap with a pack, and we had two straps I was feeling ashy and cracked, until I moved crack Stumbled a little, but got my groove back Pulled up on my mans, like help me move that [Chorus] I done been balling, and I done been broke And I done maintained with my back against the ropes But I stayed the same nigga (same nigga) Yeah, I stayed the same nigga (same nigga, real shit) I done been under pressure, and bought rose dwellers (yup) Done been a small timer, done been a whole seller But I stayed the same nigga (same nigga, stayed the same) You know I stayed the same nigga (same nigga, ain't shit change) [Verse 2] Some niggas get they money up, and act like a hoe Some niggas morph into a hater, when they money get low Some niggas don't know how to act, when they touch a couple stacks Then they sit and wonder why all they blessings getting snatched Get money, stay humble Said that shit way back That don't mean dumb it down, that mean nigga, just relax Stop shitting on folks, like you can't get broke 'Cause them tables turn quickly, now you the butt of the joke I don't act rich, while I'm stacking my chips I won't say I'm I'm a man, but always asking for shit I can't hate on a nigga, 'cause he doing it bigger I just get motivated, I'm a real go getter Went from riding the bus to drinking Dom on sprinters Went from my mama's couch to marbel floors when I enter But I'll never change, I stayed the same nigga But I'll never change, I stayed the same nigga [Chorus] I done been balling, and I done been broke And I done maintained with my back against the ropes But I stayed the same nigga (stayed the same) Yeah, I stayed the same nigga I done been under pressure, and bought rose dwellers (dwellers) Done been a small timer, done been a whole seller But I stayed the same nigga (ain't shit change) You know I stayed the same nigga (yeah)
