[Hook: Quince]
And baby I’ve been working for a long time…
For a long time, yea...
And I ain't tryna do this for my whole life
For my whole life, say
(Verse 1)
Man, and what I’m suppose to think
Been working, working, working but no dollas in my bank
Im looking, searching for them commas but I’m getting blanks
No difference in this system, when you tryna get ahead
No assistance in this business, n*ggas only want the bread
Leave you in ditches, only love you when you dead
Well…
Thats why I say Im tryna bail
I gota get it straight, and not no matter if I fell
Aye, but imma trust myself
Decisions, lead to riches, I just gota dodge the cell
Can't f*ck with my ambitions, Can't f*ck with all them sales
Id rather do it right so that my kids won’t live through hell, Mane
[Hook: Quince]
And baby I’ve been working for a long time…
For a long time, yea...
And I ain't tryna do this for my whole life
For my whole life, say (x2)
[Verse 2: Quince]
Wasup with you my dude
You say feeling down because you struggling on yo two
But focus make it through
Don’t let it rub on you
Don’t go to blaming others or the system cause the truth
Is if you can make it happen make it happen, they can’t do
Anything to make you lose
Only thing its kinda harder but a challenge always good
For the hood, gota get up out the bottom, gota get that understood
You feel me?
Chico say it cause he building
Wouldn’t be here where Im at if I was simply chilling
Keep on pimping homie
[Bridge]
And baby I’ve been working for a long time…
So please don’t ask me if I’m good, I’m straight
And i ain't tryna do this for my whole life
My body getting dusty from the wait
[Hook: Quince]
And baby I’ve been working for a long time…
For a long time, yea...
And I ain't tryna do this for my whole life
For my whole life, say
[Verse 3: Quince]
Cause baby I’ve been working for a long time
Im thinking man I’m due up for my pay
Resisting tryna do it with my own style
But bra it feel like I can’t catch a break
No question in my mind i got my own files
But they be tryna burn me with the flames
[Hook: Quince]
And baby I’ve been working for a long time…
For a long time, yea...
And I ain't tryna do this for my whole life
For my whole life, say
