Save Yourself

Sometimes you can't save everybody, everybody ain't gon' make it
Meek Milly
(Save yourself)

Uh, I gotta really take my time, it's too much on my mind (too much)
Tryna do too much for people, took too much from my grind (too much)
Goin' back and forth with legal was too much for my mom
I had to try another sport (yeah)
Judge bang that gavel, got you dyin' out in court
Fuck you thought? (What the fuck?)
In front of your kids and your mama, shit a war
I was brought up on them back blocks (I was)
Where niggas' dreams turn to nightmares with them black Glocks (no lie)
He seventeen, don't want his life, he tryna crash out (he trippin')
Don't want no thots, he want the Glocks that got the ass shots
He don't know no better
Yeah, I love bro, but that trust low, so we don't roll together (we don't)
He be sellin' and I free niggas, it don't go together
So much I gotta hold together
I do not got time to wine and dine, I'm puttin' hoes together
I'm tryna make 'em go together (I am)
Clutchin' on that pole when I'm outside, these niggas cold as ever (pussies)
Made hundred mil', I'm on that time, I'm tryna go forever (go)
Save yourself, fall back in the cut so you don't play yourself (fall back)
Went and got some money by myself, I couldn't wait for help
Brodie had got caught up on them Percs and now he hate hisself
I been tryna lift his spirit, tougher times gettin' near
Other bro sound happier than him and he got fifty years (soldier)
Real flex, I'm happy who I am when I look in the mirror
Disappear, double-back, then tell 'em I ain't comin' back
I still be bouncin' out like Ja Morant on his rookie year
She know I'm up, she tryna rush to bring that pussy here (she rushin')
Come here
Two million on the bed, I had her cummin' on it
She never been around a real with this much money on him
Naw, for real
(Save yourself) Uh
'Cause won't nobody save you when they swoop in and cage you
Sittin' in the cell like it's hell, you on day two
Lookin' at the pics and all them niggas that betrayed you, damn
(Save yourself)
As you should
I'd save everybody if I could
Sittin' with the billi' boys on the wood
Young bull keep starin', he really know I'm from the mud
'Cause he had sold me a Glock back then, I dapped him, gave hug
Said the chopper was outside and he ain't know which one it was (he trippin')
Tryna stack 150, fuck goin' to the club
I'm prayin' brodie get his mind back, he gone off them drugs
He gone (I pray)
I pray brodie get that time back, been gone like a dub
He ain't even do the crime, sayin' Surahs on his rug
On the phone with his mom, she know her boy need a hug
Did a four-hour drive while all your dogs in the club
Your hoes was there too and it was all really love
It be tricky lovin' a ho from jail that already was
Fightin' cases in the matrix, knowin' you already cuffed
And it be hard to really think knowin' you already stuck (it's hard)
Double-back to get my dog because I'm already up
And I'm all the way in it, should've known I ain't finished
Saved myself first, then I did reform for the trenches, I'm like

In these times, you gotta save yourself (save me)
When you look outside
Shots fly, nobody came for help (brrt, nobody)
Mm, we said this shit ride or die
Went to the guys, I had to beg for help (trippin')
Said this shit was ride or die
Believin' in them heathens, lost your people and you played yourself
Told you don't believe in none of those heathens, yeah

Ooh, woah, woah
I'll never sell my soul
Hangin' in the trenches where I lost most of my niggas
But I ain't forget to chase my goals
Ooh, woah, woah
I'll never sell my soul
Hangin' in the trenches where I lost most of my niggas
But I ain't forget to chase my goals
