(Intro)
|
Yea, you know the crazy thing is
|
They gon talk about you when you ain¡¯t got shit
|
But then they gon talk about you when you got shit
|
And see they gon talk even though they don¡¯t know
|
What you had to do or what you goin through
|
Sacrifices
|
|
(Verse)
|
Seeing yo family scrambling, that¡¯s sanity damaging
|
Gotta make a move, can¡¯t just stand and be mimicking
|
Have a man who be managing, randomly standing in places he shouldn¡¯t
|
Tryin to move that Pamela Anderson under¡¦
|
Standing these hammers and grandma keep paddling
|
Cuz them niggas from the other side of fence will be vanishing
|
New day, new funeral, my grandma be panicking
|
But I gotta eat, she just handing me sandwiches
|
And her appetite like mine got me standing in scandal and
|
Ridin shottie with my homie but I plan to be Phantoming
|
Bumpin something I could feel, fam I need sample
|
And not no Bieber on the hook, I need Anthony Hamilton
|
I got molly, I got white, I be Hannah Montana
|
And like amigo it¡¯s illegal but it¡¯s grams in my hand again
|
So it probably ain¡¯t right but this the land of the scandalous
|
To your own friend snake, you probably can¡¯t understand it
|
Then when you go you just gone, all we missing is payments
|
Now the king fall for my freedom that I risk just to pay
|
When ain¡¯t no love for these streets, ain¡¯t no kissing the pavement
|
Yea I¡¯m sick and tired of shit, they insisting be patient
|
But for what? To wait on that eviction note?
|
I woke up to some real shit, them dreams I have is fictional
|
Unless I go and get it, don¡¯t stop get it get it
|
Too alive, threw money in the loop dances with it
|
|
(Hook)
|
Jesus died on that cross, that¡¯s a sacrifice
|
Niggas dying for they cross, that¡¯s a sacrifice
|
Rosa Parks took a charge, that¡¯s a sacrifice
|
If Shawty took that charge for you that¡¯s a sacrifice
|
Just do what you gotta do baby
|
Just do what you gotta do baby
|
Just do what you gotta do baby
|
Gotta do what you gotta do baby
|
|
(Verse)
|
Baby gotta do what a baby gotta do
|
Baby mama ain¡¯t got it but her baby father do
|
Never pick up baby boy but his Mercedes powder blue
|
Now mammy sick of daddy and the baby got a flu
|
And was crazy bout it too
|
Cuz all she see is lies
|
When she look him in eyes and her baby got him too
|
Pay a little child support but what¡¯s so shady bout him too
|
He¡¯s in the club he pop Rose but won¡¯t bring baby bottles through
|
I know things apart, I ain¡¯t say we gotta blue
|
But if you walkin round in Prada buy yo baby Prada too
|
Tellin hoes yes, we can¡¯t get a maybe out of you
|
Shit is fucked up and I don¡¯t think the baby got a clue
|
What¡¯s a lady gotta do? Bend over for dollar tips?
|
Cuz ain¡¯t nobody giving young single mothers scholarships
|
Mama just got diagnosed, breast cancer
|
So when they aks what she gon do, her best answer
|
Is I don¡¯t know, gotta do what I gotta do
|
I don¡¯t know about yo bills but the ones I gotta do
|
People always wanna try to tell you what you gotta do
|
But there¡¯s a difference in with those who don¡¯t and those who got it through
|
It¡¯s called sacrifices, hate to see my man gone
|
Bed was like a pop fly just to bring my man home
|
Can¡¯t just leave him out there
|
Gotta believe in yo self even when it¡¯s doubt there yea
|
|
(Hook)
|
Jesus died on that cross, that¡¯s a sacrifice
|
Niggas dying for they cross, that¡¯s a sacrifice
|
Rosa Parks took a charge, that¡¯s a sacrifice
|
If Shawty took that charge for you that¡¯s a sacrifice
|
Just do what you gotta do baby
|
Just do what you gotta do baby
|
Just do what you gotta do baby
|
Gotta do what you gotta do baby
