No Favors

[Intro]
Yeah, I can't really see nobody
Yeah, and I don't really need nobody

[Chorus]
Yeah, I can't really see nobody
Yeah, and I don't really need nobody
Yeah, I can really be without it
Yeah, I'm on my own, man, my mind crowded
Woah, I can't really see nobody
And I don't really need nobody, yeah
And I can't really see nobody, 'body
No, and I don't really need nobody, yeah

[Verse 1]
Do me a favor, don't do me no favors
I'm on a chase for the paper, girl, I'll see you later
Top off, pop off, like hey, girl, I shine on your radar
No knock-off, girl, it's that real thing, no it never fade off
Woah, they come and go, that's just how it goes
Man, caught up in the game, dealing with highs and lows
Yeah, them ups and downs mixed with smiles and frowns
Aww man, them fairytales never came around
I had my head in the wrong space next to the ground
And now I'm winning, now I'm way, way up now
She froze up when I pulled up in that why you don't come around?
She chose up, she slept on me, but she want me now
I don't really trust these niggas but the squad down
I need a chick to hold me down when I'm out of town
Yeah, swear, and I don't really see nobody
Whatever you say you 'bout, don't talk about it, be about it
Yeah, and girl, you really need to find a hobby
Just think about it, stop always tryna work that body
Uh, I guess I can really sleep without it
It kill my vibe, no TV and I don't read about it

[Chorus]
Yeah, I can't really see nobody
Yeah, and I don't really need nobody
Yeah, I can really be without it
Yeah, I'm on my own, man, my mind crowded
Woah, I said I can't really see nobody
And I don't really need nobody, yeah
And I can't really see nobody, 'body
No, and I don't really need nobody

[Verse 2]
Yeah, still going hard 'til my last day
Ten years in it, still treat it like my first day
I done got accustomed to living life fast pace
But I'd rather risk moving fast than come in last place
Yeah, I done seen this shit all
Girl, I'm grown now
Drink some wine while I break down your walls
You can ball with me if you still gon' be there if I fall
I was just a young boy, thought I was ready for it all
I was walking home from school, getting banged on by them dudes (Ayy, ayy, ayy, where you from, homie?)
And they asked me where I'm from, I told 'em, "Same city as you"
I never spoke up on my dreams, them niggas didn't have a clue
Didn't think that I can blow, but now everything new

[Chorus]
Yeah, I can't really see nobody (At all, at all)
Yeah, and I don't really need nobody (At all, yeah)
Yeah, I can really be without it
Yeah, I'm on my own, man, my mind crowded
Woah (Uh), I said I can't really see nobody (At all)
And I don't really need nobody, yeah (At all, yeah)
And I can't really see nobody, 'body (At all, at all)
No, and I don't really need nobody

[Bridge]
God bless the child that can hold his own
They say God bless the child that can hold his own
Yeah, God bless the child that can hold his own
They say God bless the child that can hold his own
Shawty she can't leave me alone, we still going strong
Even if I'm in it alone, I'm still staying strong
They say God bless the child that can hold his own
They say God bless the child that can hold his own

[Outro]
That can hold his own
They say God bless the child that can hold his own
Yeah, God bless the child that can hold his own
They say God bless the child that can hold is own
Yeah

[Skit: Jay-Z]
Yeah, I went to every single record label
They was like, "This guy is terrible, he's nothing"
That just goes to show you how far the A&R was off
I came to these guys and they used to go to Bentleys and have electric blue shirts on, and
How you know about hip hop? What you know about it? What are you talking about?
I mean, but it made me appreciate it so much more
No one gave me anything, they didn't give me a record deal
They didn't give me anything
Like I, I really, I really just took my time and grew it
Step by step by step by step
