[Blue Foundation]

I won’t soothe your pain

I won’t ease your strain

I got nothing for you

I got nothing for you

I got nothing for you to gain


[Verse One]

Look

The street's talkin' and often I gave the conversation

Cause in this game you can fly a deal with complications

All I wanted was gold chains and whips but even that I couldn't get like Emancipation and Proclamation

From my bedroom window makin' observations

Watchin' niggas who turn they corner into they occupation

Soon as I had thoughts of joining the operation

That's right when the streets started sayin'


[Hook]

"I won’t soothe your pain

I won’t ease your strain

I got nothing for you"

You know I got nothin' for you

You, you know I got nothin' for you

You, you know I got nothin' for you

But we want it anyways cause we got nothin' to lose


[Verse Two]

But who cares when you stay gettin' new pairs

Of white and baby blue Airs, you stunt around your crew wearing

Got girls who never used to notice you staring

Hung at Mom and Pop shops cause we ain't have two parents

School to some dudes was just a dumb bell

Young, well niggas movin' weight like dumbbells

We'd be compelled to run sells like no one cares

Cause our wishes and our prayers be goin' straight to the voice-mail

Since a kid I knew I would do it big

Bumpin' Sky's The Limit thinkin' I'mma do it B.I.G

Shit, in 7th grade, I was doin' trig

Hangin' with my nigs who do nothin' but pulling trigs

Started smokin' cigs and cigs led to the weed

And weed led to the drank and drank led to the E

Pills, I started poppin' to stop from goin' insane

While I'm holdin' up this flame I'm hearin' it say


[Hook]


[Bridge]

One time for the momma on the grind

Two times for the nigga on his job

Three times for the kid with a dream

One day he gon' make it to the top


[Verse Three]

Throwin' it in the air, like I don't care, I ain't trippin'

Dollars got me ass grabbin' but I swear I'm penny pinching

I know it's a given I'm givin' because I'm sippin'

For that money she get low so she can get her titties lifted

Shawty's name was Diamond, we was never not together

Unless she was in the air like Roc-A-Fella

She let me beat it, when I wouldn't she went accapella

Even though I know she was only after my mozzarella

Mess up relationships and jobs that would make her sick

Knowin' millions take a bit, to get, wasn't makin' sense

She know them dollars I throw ain't gon' make her rich

Or happy, but it makes her wish


[Hook]
