Had To Do It Lyrics

As it all falls down, as it all makes sense
I had to let go all these rights
And let go all these fears
I had to sacrifice these nights
You see it took some years
I had to let go of my mama
She said I never shine
I had to let go off these niggas
Who said it ain't my time
I lost a lot of different women
Who said they needed love
Baby girl I'm tryina blow
So all you can get is this hub
Lost a lot of different shows
'Cause they ain't had a buzz
Lost touch with my pops
'Cause the nigga never showed love

Boy I had to do it
To get back on my feet
Yeah boy I had to do it
Yeah, to stay up on my grind
Boy I had to do it, yeah
Ain't really mean to
But once the means come through
You see it all makes sense
Boy I had to do it
To get back on my feet
Yeah boy I had to do it
Yeah, to stay up on my grind
Boy I had to do it, yeah
Ain't really mean to
But once the means come through
You see it all makes sense

My father left when I was 14
My mama put me down since then nigga
Dropped my first song when I was 15
I know that I would blow even back then nigga
Came in with my mind right
I done seen things been through things
I done ran lights with no shoe strings
I done fucked hoes through their g strings
Fucked up on a bad night
Witch a bad bitch talking two things
Who the fuck I'ma front for nigga
Who the fuck I'ma jump for nigga
Why would I give up though
'Cause I'm at the point where you tryina be?
Niggas claiming that they seek change
Be the same niggas not tryina see
This is not a gift, this is prophecy
This shit here was meant for me
I feel like it was meant to be
We had chemistry mixed with empathy
But you doubt it
We both could have been on good
But you ain't bout it
Just get this understood girl
But when the money coming
Don't be tryina say I'm fronting
Cause I ain't break you up for nothing
You see I ain't transform for nothing, girl

Boy I had to do it
To get back on my feet
Yeah boy I had to do it
Yeah, to stay up on my grind
Boy I had to do it, yeah
Ain't really mean to
But once the means come through
You see it all makes sense
Boy I had to do it
To get back on my feet
Yeah boy I had to do it
Yeah, to stay up on my grind
Boy I had to do it, yeah
Ain't really mean to
But once the means come through
You see it all makes sense
