Ransom
Love Lost
[Verse 1:J.Arrr]
The gas will never match the smoke
If they ask, I'm most concerned about my cash and growth
Just tryna keep my passions close so I can max them both
Actually dope, I ain't injected, barely probin' the vein
When you makin' your shots, that's gon' open the lanes
I was scrapin' the pots, never showin' the pain
Now I'm takin' the crops, they can't hold the remains
I was quiet when I showed them the game
'Cause they say liars tend to over-explain
Listen, I ain't in the field, but I know the terrains
Growin' my name, stuck my chest out, Boldy as James
Knowin' this game's like marriage 'till the death
I gave more to n***as askin' me for less
And grew up amongst savagery and threats
We just passively aggressed Now it's antennas for any static we select
'Till it has to be respect from the foolish haters
Had my team three-peatin' like the Bulls and Lakers
Life's a bitch, had to bind her to secure the paper
Like my niche, had to find it just to lose complacence
You can blame it on other shit, but that's tied to lies
I try to hide in my ego until I finally put my pride aside
Move n***as with little time to rhyme
So watch how common they shift when it's my nine-to-five
Yeah
[Verse 2:Ransom]
Never cared to fraternize with you rappers I'm in this business
To buy and sell so I ain't tryin' to be fly as hell
I need to be aware I know the fear in them blank stares
From inside a cell I'm as real as Rich Paul sittin' beside Adele
Street corner to courtside, quarter waters and pork rinds
They told us we can rain up in heaven or either fry in hell
Might as well, ain't no clientele when all your clients tell
But I'm glad you invested money in YSL
He said the streets savin' 'em bought 'em
Some O's and he keeps shavin' 'em
Dealin' with yay like he's Pete Davidson
They can never be safe with 'em from the sandbox to the pre-K with 'em
He made it up out, but the streets stayed with 'em farewell to 'em Twitter lies this shit applies to those who gon' criticize
But only critter size you know them little guys
Who minimize the fact you should be great to them
They never had faith in 'em My shit is so relative, you relate to 'em
I think that I was made for 'em I don't receive the love well
I consider heaven anything that's above hell
I done showed love on these same streets where my blood fell
Why you get rid of your honor as soon as the judge yell?
Yo, it's only right I let you felons know
They barely wanna see you win especially when you sell and blow Love you when you sayin' yes life is like a game of chess
You wanna know if he's a friend?
Go ahead and tell him no , n***as know
