"AT WHAT COST?" lyrics
Hahaha
Say no more and all good things end, we all heard that one before
Whoever said that shit better prepare for a war
'Cause I'm good, I'll pass it on to generations and more
As I should, 'cause I'm here, it ain't no stoppin' of course
I started dancin' with my pen, I made the paper my floor
I'm 'bout to be carryin' the game, I better strengthen my core
Are you happy where you at? I said "No bueno, señor"
If I knew my time was comin', then I'd be waitin' too (I'd be waitin' too)
Dead or alive, I swear to God I'll make it through (I'll make it through)
I lost my brothers to this shit, look to the sky and I salute
I look my brother in his eyes, I almost cried, I miss you too (I miss you too)
I needed help, they slammed the door
Now I don't need shit, they offer favors like I'm poor (Favors like I'm poor)
I'm speedin' fast, hope I don't crash
I see red lights and I don't slow, I hope I make it home (Lights and I don't slow)
Can't help but look around and say this where I, this where I belong
Yeah, but at what cost?
Should I have spent time with friends instead of bein' a boss?
Should I have put down the mic and maybe take up lacrosse?
I been tryna find myself, and now my childhood's lost
Wish I could put myself in ice, hope I never defrost
I'm tryna call my younger years, but they won't answer my call at all
I love my fam', but it's not showin' at all
I ain't been playin' catch with pops or chasin' after a ball, oh God
Wait a minute, I do this for myself
I do this for the people who ain't wanna wish me well
So, I, I gotta stay focused, I can't get knocked off my track
I do this for my so-called friends, hatin' behind my back
And those same people be congratulatin' me lately
"Oh my God Mabu, it's so impressive, you've been goin' crazy"
I just smile and shake they hand, it's kinda funny man
Always knew my biggest haters would be my biggest fans
Say no more, all good things end, we all heard that one before
Yeah, whoever said that shit better prepare for a war
'Cause I'm good, I'll pass it on to generations and more
As I should, 'cause I'm here, it ain't no stoppin' of course
I started dancin' with my pen, I made the paper my floor
I'm' 'bout to be carryin' the game, I better strengthen my core
Are you happy where you at? I said "No bueno, señor"
I said "No bueno, señor"
Are you happy where you at? I said "No bueno, señor"
Say no more and all good things end, we all heard that one before
Whoever said that shit better prepare for a war
'Cause I'm good, I'll pass it on to generations and more
As I should, 'cause I'm here, it ain't no stoppin' of course
I started dancin' with my pen, I made the paper my floor
I'm 'bout to be carryin' the game, I better strengthen my core
Are you happy where you at? I said "No bueno, señor"
If I knew my time was comin', then I'd be waitin' too (I'd be waitin' too)
Dead or alive, I swear to God I'll make it through (I'll make it through)
I lost my brothers to this shit, look to the sky and I salute
