[38 Spesh, Benny the Butcher - Play For Keeps lyrics]
"If Rome ain’t on it, what is it?"
I tell a nigga straight up
Thinking you better wake up
And go to sleep thinking ‘bout the same shit
Nigga you better wake up to get it
And go to sleep with it, nigga
We don’t play no games, we play for keeps
Young, rich niggas that’s happy to be alive
Nigga
Trust Come First, straight like that, nigga
We’re out here taking risks, nigga
Everyday, we take risks, nigga
Young risk takers, nigga
We don’t play no games, we play for keeps
Bow your head, say your grace and eat
Young man the world is yours
Trust hit me out though ayo ayo
Let’s take it back, 14, I was on probation
Focused on the corner pacing, so impatient
Before I served the smokers
Make sure I know their faces
They call me nephew, I call them unc
But we’re no relation
Motivated, going places
You ever drove the motherload on the
Road and had open cases?
I thank God I ain’t incarcerated
Now I don’t see the moves when they get made
I just orchestrate it
Told the bitch I like your coordination
The way your body move
We can probably get rich from fornication
Move my family to four locations
All down south
It’s Georgia and Florida plates
On my spaceships
You switch sides when it’s altercations
I ran with the same team my whole career
I’m Walter Payton
Talk to strangers, wasn’t often able
You got to understand a boss’ language
To sit across the table trust
These niggas playing, but we play for keeps
Money on the floor
Look like I’m raking leaves real nigga
So you know your secret safe with me
Uh huh, we bow our heads
We say grace and eat
Got to watch these niggas
Got to watch your paper
Got to watch these bitches
Try to spot these haters
I need a couple hundred bands
In my safe at least
Yeah, we bow our heads, we say grace and eat
A stash box in the Honda Civic
A lot of spending, i should be the mascot
For the diamond district
Knowledge given from time in prison
They fed us lies as children and expect
Us to live an honest living
Now I’m sitting in my favorite foreign
Can’t recall a day that’s boring
Staying in places you pay to tour in
But that money ain’t important
What’s important is my man did ten
And his bitch waited for him
You’re ‘round niggas that was never for you
If you was with me when I ain’t have nothing
Then I’m forever loyal
I’m still suffering from paranoia
It will never stop
Just changed my locks and got a better lawyer
I bow my head, say my grace and eat
Count my bread then I play my
Plug then I shake the streets
I need a couple mills sitting
In my safe at least
I play with keys and keep
Drums like I’m making beats trust
These niggas playing, but we play for keeps
Money on the floor
Look like I’m raking leaves real nigga
So you know your secret safe with me
Uh huh, we bow our heads
We say grace and eat
Got to watch these niggas
Got to watch your paper
Got to watch these bitches
Try to spot these haters
I need a couple hundred bands
In my safe at least
Yeah, we bow our heads, we say grace and eat
I tell a nigga straight up
Thinking you better wake up
And go to sleep thinking ‘bout the same shit
Nigga you better wake up to get it
And go to sleep with it, nigga
We don’t play no games, we play for keeps
Young, rich niggas that’s happy to be alive
