Collect Call

Lyrics

Try to build the world and I'm standin' tall
 But if I ever, ever have to take a fall
 Will you accept my collect call?
 Will you accept my collect call?
 'Cause everybody loves you when you ballin'
 But don't nobody want you when you bawlin'
 But I know will you accept my collect call
 But I know will you accept my collect call
 I was told way back in the day when I was trappin'
 Never mind what niggas say judge 'em all on they actions
 It's hard to imagine when you travelin'
 Havin' fun, gettin' paper catch a case and see how niggas act then
 Out a cell partner been fired he rattin' on me
 Got a little benja pension now they turn they back on me
 Shit 'cause out of sight is out of mind, better put your trust in God
 Homie man will let you down every time
 And I'm speakin' experience, serious
 Imagine my surprise hearin' from the inside
 Everybody talkin' bout me like the nigga just died
 Tip gone 20 years at the least get 5
 Man niggas just lie for suspicion of they snitchin'
 Not to mention the rumors of me committin' suicide
 God will open your eyes and show you who really wit ya
 But keep it in the back of your mind when it's over how niggas did ya
 Try to build the world and I'm standin' tall
 But if I ever, ever have to take a fall
 Will you accept my collect call?
 Will you accept my collect call?
 'Cause everybody loves you when you ballin'
 But don't nobody want you when you bawlin'
 But I know will you accept my collect call
 But I know will you accept my collect call
 I ain't never asked a nigga to do shit for me
 I wouldn't do in return but guess you live and your learn
 Don't expect my well bein' to be a nigga concern
 'Cause I know that ain't the way the world turn
 'Cause everybody love to see a nigga assed out
 Rather see ya lose it all than to see ya cash out
 They gossip like bitches I don't even ask how
 'Cause niggas ain't shit, I believe that now
 And it even matter how much you do for people they'll love to
 See you beat down livin' in the gutta, what a
 Shame at the least in the game when you see
 They want you locked up more than the police
 The same can't wait to get a nigga off the street
 They hate to see me sittin' on buckets off C
 Dog beat bet to you don't even make sense
 But that mentality exactly why you'll never be grieved hata
 Try to build the world and I'm standin' tall
 But if I ever, ever have to take a fall
 Will you accept my collect call?
 Will you accept my collect call?
 'Cause everybody loves you when you ballin'
 But don't nobody want you when you bawlin'
 But I know will you accept my collect call
 But I know will you accept my collect call
 I remain a stand up guy no matter what I
 Stood tall chest out head up high
 Wit my back against the wall layin' it all on the line
 Wit God on my side I perform every time, must I remind you
 Similar to a miracle just short of amazin'
 Survived shit that would've drove most niggas crazy
 Rose to the occasion whatever situation
 Surprised haters and came out gun a blazin'
 Theoretically speakin' but you rather be thinkin'
 I'll fold 'cause you want a view of me I know
 All I got is the family friends come and go
 And with that understandin' I put none before
 My folk you know enough to do the same I hope
 If not, shit ya ass will find out
 When ya on top everybody wanna ball wit ya
 But when ya not you wouldn't even know who to call, would ya?
