Getting by
Now my girl call and ask me why I am spending time
She call me up and say Zenny why ain't you spending time
I don't know, how am I gon' get it if not on the grind
Mummy thinks that I've gone and lost my f*cking mind
I'm the golden child, I had to go and lead the blind
Take the top off the whip, the whip is coming circumsised
I don't need no girl just give a brother some time for life
(Oh-oh)
Now you wanna take from me
(Oh-oh)
Now you wanna hate on me
(Oh-oh)
Now the opps they wanna skate on me
(Oh-oh)
Akon, they'll put the blame on me
(Oh-oh)
Now you wanna move fake on me
(Oh-oh)
If I blow they'll put a date on me
(Oh-oh)
Sacrifice, do the same for me
(Oh-oh)
If I die would he put flame on me
Getting by
Man I'm tired of just getting by
Thinking of whole new ways I could go and be getting mine
Need to give me, lil bro and mum a better life (Ooo)
Man I'm tired of just getting by
Thinking of whole new ways I could go and be getting mine
Need to give me, lil bro and mum a better life (Ooo why)
Somewhere on the m-way, six speed foreign to it no brakes
Flake got the drip looking out of space
Posted in them pubs in a tracky looking out of place
I'm tired but this money's got to pile up there's no other way
Getting by, can't put reliance on no other guy
I was always keeping faith, he f*cked up he got another try (Again)
Things that we go through, just to make it multiply
You be good with that money, but you'll have to keep it by your side
Getting mine, won't stop till' everyone around me shine (Everyone)
I love my baby girl, she got me every time
I can't stray, time is money in that fast lane
I ain't whipping mine but still getting it the hard way
And trust me in the hood man, nothing ain't sweet
Go from eating hakkasan then on induction next week
All them sleepless nights juggin' tryna' make this phone beat
Free my brothers all locked for this hood shit, we getting by
