[Intro]

Worried about where you at all the time

Alright

One two, one two

[Chorus]

Said I ain't playin' games wit' you

Don't you find the time to play no games wit' me

Make sure you take your soul wit' you when you go

Make sure you hold it close, baby keep it close

[Verse 1]

Said I ain't got no time

To be lookin' behind my back

Worried about where you at all the time

Distracted by yo' sirens

Thinkin' 'bout runnin' through the stop signs

Trying to avoid you at all costs

Stay up out of my sight, read me my rights

I ain't fuckin' 'round wit' you

Yeah, memories are everything of mine

Don't you spend your time corrupting mines

Tryna stay inside my rightful mind

In order for you to think outside the box

You must learn to think within the lines

To find the strength to walk outside the block

Pray to God, you are a God inside

When you find that a little time in that paradigm is what it takes

When you practice it, the magic takes place

Only way to win the race is

To make sure you take your soul wit' you when you go

Make sure you hold it close, baby take it slow

[Chorus]

Said I ain't playin' games wit' you

Don't you find the time to play no games wit' me

Make sure you take your soul wit' you when you go

Make sure you hold it close, baby keep it close

[Verse 2]

Don't lose yourself to pain

Busy saving face with everything when a cop there

Go through all the changes

Simple things you go through everyday when I'm not there

Wonder what has you on lock

Is it your hood, your job, or your thoughts

Self-doubt is equal to the cops

Sometimes that's the reason dreams are shot

You don't need a scene to see the plot

Arrest yourself by dwelling on the past

Beat yourself before you beat the odds

Piece together all the broken glass

All the real bad thoughts pull you over

Free or not, is you drunk, is you sober

Seen a lot on the run from the rover

One shot from the stars and it's over

[Chorus]

Said I ain't playin' games wit' you

Don't you find the time to play no games wit' me

Make sure you take your soul wit' you when you go

Make sure you hold it close, baby keep it close
