Lyrics
See sometimes the people you thought was your friends, ain't your friends at all
Sometimes, individuals you believed were friends turn out not to be genuine friends.
They was just tryna take advantage of you so they could ball out
They aimed to exploit you for their benefit, seeking personal gain.
But soon they will fall out
Eventually, they will face consequences or experience a downfall.
Dig themselves in a hole they can't crawl out
They'll find themselves in a difficult situation from which they can't recover.
Passed out in streets sprawled out
They'll be unconscious and vulnerable in public places.
In bathroom stalls tryna knock and they bawl out
They'll be distressed and crying in private spaces like bathroom stalls.
See I'mma lay it all out
The singer intends to reveal everything truthfully.
Cause one day, I said one day
At some point in the future.
God gonna call out
A moment when a higher power will question actions or choices.
And what you gonna say
What justification will one have for their actions?
You gonna be happy over what you did?
Will they feel content with their life choices?
Just sitting with your wife and your two kids
Being with family.
What you gonna tell 'em?
What explanation or example will they provide?
Yeah, you gonna tell 'em
Implying a paternal figure knows the correct path.
Big daddy know the right way, right?
Exploiting others to achieve personal success.
Take advantage of people to make your way right
Not considering past actions.
But you don't think about yesterday
Yesterday is in the past.
Yesterday has gone away
No longer relevant.
You got more people to play
More people to manipulate or use.
You got more time to waste
More time to squander.
You got more money to snake
More money to deceive and cheat others out of.
You got more relationships to fake
Fabricating more relationships without authenticity.
Awww yeah, it's just take and take
It's all about taking without giving back.
Cause what the fuck they gonna do?
A reflection of the power imbalance.
They make the product while you make the rules
Exploiting others' labor while setting the rules.
So go play another motherfucker for a fool
Tricking someone else for personal benefit.
See I'm trying to drop news
The singer aims to inform others to prevent their exploitation.
So everybody else don't get fucked by these tools
Preventing others from being deceived by manipulative people.
Cause to them, I'm a truck mule
Being used as a means to an end.
That's the machine that you fuel
Being a cog in a system.
But shit, don't you all feel cool though?
Despite exploitation, feeling a sense of satisfaction or superiority.
Yeah, too good to be true
Seems too perfect to be true.
I can't get mad at you
The singer can't blame them entirely as they've made similar mistakes.
I made the same mistake too
Considering what actions others might take given certain circumstances.
But shit, What would you do
Discussing a hypothetical situation where one receives a large sum of money.
Someone gave you $250,000 you'd be feeling yourself too
Implies a sense of pride or self-importance upon receiving a large sum.
See I ain't tryin' tell you what to do
The singer is not dictating behavior but emphasizing the importance of learning through losses.
Cause we all learn what we lose
We all learn from our mistakes and endure consequences.
And we all pay for it too
Everyone faces repercussions for their actions.
Shit, what is life, without a good 'ol case of the blues
Summing up life's essence as experiencing hardships or challenges.
Hey, how are you doing?
(Dialogue exchange not analyzed in the song lyrics)
Good, I'm good. You good?
-Yeah, I'm good too. So are you here alone?
-Yeah, yeah, you know
-Me too. Well I mean, my friends just left
-Yeah?
-So
-Can I sit down?
-Yeah, yeah, for sure
-What's your name
-Christian
