Ninety Nine - My Time Ain't Free (feat. Mercz) Lyrics

I won't give you what you want
I might give you what you need
And you ain't even gotta front
'Cause i know how to take the lead
You been out here with the smoke
Yeah, you been out here in the streets
And that's the reason you broke
And my time ain't free

I won't give you what you want
I might give you what you need
And you ain't even gotta front
'Cause i know how to take the lead
You been out here with the smoke
Yeah, you been hanging in the streets
And that's the reason you broke
And my time ain't free

Half these hustlers ain't what they claim to be
Everybody want a favor, it ain't hard to see
Shit I been used so many times I know it gotta be me
Got used to being used so now my time ain't free
Feeling like I was about to quit, my mind scattered
Now every swing I take is a hit, improved batter
I give it all, 'cause I been blessed with what matters
But still I've been torn and tattered, hold up
That's just the God in me, that makes me act the way I act
But the king in me makes me want it all back
When I done helped these niggas from the bottom to the top
And they ain't even drop a rope to help a nigga climb up
I've been hungry, working for change, stuck in the worst space
Why'd I ever help these muhf*ckas in the first place
Yeah I regret the shit but f*ck 'em all
May God help you on the day that I ball

I won't give you what you want
I might give you what you need
And you ain't even gotta front
'Cause i know how to take the lead
You been out here with the smoke
Yeah, you been out here in the streets
And that's the reason you broke
And my time ain't free

I won't give you what you want
I might give you what you need
And you ain't even gotta front
'Cause i know how to take the lead
You been out here with the smoke
Yeah, you been hanging in the streets
And that's the reason you broke
And my time ain't free

Lord, won't you pick me up, 'cause all my life I've been down
No I don't even want help, I just need you around
I know it's all in my mind, I'm blessed and cursed with these thoughts
I'm chasing after this paper, but happiness can't be bought

Lord, won't you pick me up, 'cause all my life I've been down
No I don't even want help, I just need you around
I know it's all in my mind, I'm blessed and cursed with these thoughts
I'm chasing after this paper, yeah this paper, yeah this paper

I won't give you what you want
I might give you what you need
And you ain't even gotta front
'Cause i know how to take the lead
You been out here with the smoke
Yeah, you been out here in the streets
And that's the reason you broke
And my time ain't free

I won't give you what you want
I might give you what you need
And you ain't even gotta front
'Cause i know how to take the lead
You been out here with the smoke
Yeah, you been hanging in the streets
And that's the reason you broke
And my time ain't free
