Million Dollar Baby

Lyrics

I gotta switch it up, I'm running out of options Down bad, it ain't no money in my pockets I been smoking, I been going through withdrawals Ain't have no choice, a nigga couldn't make deposits I tried it all and still this shit ain't never change I pray to God, it's gotta be another way Quit that job I gotta go and make a name I paid the dues, I got some moves I gotta make It ain't easy, it's a difficult decision I place the bets, it's all on me, I gotta get it Don't want the help, I like to keep it independent Give me the work, I got the juice, I got the vision In the apartments I'm peeking through the blinds I'm paranoid, I think I'm running out of time The neighbors tired of hearing knocking on my door I'm on the move I'm headed to the eastside It's a million dollar baby in the making On my momma, always knew that I would make it I'm counting chips, I'm taking risks it's calculated Put some money on my wrist I'm activated I made the trip from the west to the six I'm out the house, I'm out the way, I'm out the mix I had to make a choice, I had to take the risk I had to go through that to get me back to this Ain't have no job, I had to start a couple businesses Was paying people out of pocket, ain't no benefits Before I even got the money, I was spending it Told him if he could do consignment, I'd get rid of it I'm building out my resume, I'm building out the brand Building out the future, had to go and make a plan Made a little money, had me feeling like the man Then I lost it all again, it made me question who I am Is it really true? is it really worth it? Is it really you? is it really working? I ain't got no passion for it if it ain't my purpose In my head I'm going crazy, but I'm peaceful on the surface 'Til they close the curtains, ima get it, ima shine Ima different person, I got money on my mind This is life or death, I put it all out on the line Always knew that it would work, this shit just took a lil time It's a million dollar baby in the making On my momma, always knew that I would make it I'm counting chips, I'm taking risks it's calculated Put some money on my wrist I'm activated I made the trip from the west to the six I'm out the house, I'm out the way, I'm out the mix I had to make a choice, I had to take the risk I had to go through that to get me back to this
