They say bosses shouldn't count losses, yo
But I can't make money and lose my conscious, yo
We was just youngins when started rolling blunts
Always on the ends and you can catch us on the ones
Please
Seen enemies, by sunrise
Got mothers crying in the street
'Cause her son got shot
Seen her tears starting pouring too
Still couldn't believe what this mold us to
Look, I use to I pray for the most
But it ain't for the most if it's keeps family close
Can't tippy toe, I gotta stay with the smoke
'Cause through it all they try to take from me
Take from me and my life, it won't be easy
Hard of hearing, there was times you couldn't reach me
They say I've changed when I'm got up on the TV
Stay out the way, don't want nobody yelling "Free me"
Tuh, okay, free me
From my ways that I said I wouldn't repeat
And these sins adding up and now I'm knee deep
This the part of the game they didn't teach me
But if you just stop and take a look
This world is so cold
If you just stop and take a look
Can't it make it without dough
And it don't stop for nobody
That's how the world goes
I seen the world take everything
That's why I'm stone cold
Jealousy and hate come with the fame
No money, well, momma love me the same
Been giving out my love and now I'm drained, yo
Wish you didn't love me for just fame, yo
Is this your way of pushing me away?
Telling me that I 'cause all your pain
Falling out with friends and they blame you
As long you remember that I came through
But if you just stop and take a look
This world is so cold
If you just stop and take a look
Can't make it without dough
And it don't stop for nobody
That's how this world goes
I seen the world take everything
That's why I'm stone cold
That's why am stone cold
That's why am stone
