Lyrics

[Intro]
I feel cursed, my nigga
No but all the niggas my age and older
Got they niggas around, you know what I’m sayin’?
This shit different, man
Uh

[Verse 1]
My heart done got so cold tryna make a way (Tryna make a way, cold)
You gotta keep it rollin’, that’s what they would say (That’s what they would say, rollin’)
I been searchin’ for the strength, just livin’ day-to-day (Just livin’ day-to-day, that all)
Trapper to rapper, don’t matter, I’m tryin’ to make a play (Let’s go)
You never know how life gon’ hit you, until you live it
Can’t be talking about the shit you ’bout to do, until you did it (Go do it)
Lawyer good, nigga might’ve did it, but he got acquitted
On the court you can’t just be travellin’, you know you gotta pivot (Ooh)
Dreamin’ of a speedboat
Smokin’, having conversations with niggas that need coke
Half of y’all never seen broke (Never seen)
I’ve seen my whole life flash in a minute (Flash)
Nightmares, scared to sleep, thought I was actually in it

[Chorus]
It’s so confusin’
Felt like I was winning, just to find out I was losin’ (Losin’)
We ain’t know no better, if we could sell it, we gon’ move it
Tired of tattin’ homies in my mind, I’m ’bout to lose it (Lose)
Came up with a plan, we got some grams and started boomin’ (Boom)
Tell me you love me but you hate me, it’s so confusin’
Made it out and still ain’t get to live, it’s so confusin’ (It’s so confusin’)
I gotta get a dollar just so it ain’t no confusion (I gotta get a dollar)

[Verse 2]
Smoking ’til it’s hard to breathe, my lungs prolly polluted
I know he only seventeen but he prolly gon’ shoot it (I know)
I talk about shit they never seen, I know it might confuse ’em
My thoughts deeper than most, I probably lose or cross that line we gotta boom him (Boom)
He ratted, seen the paperwork, can’t treat him like I knew him (I don’t know him)
It was hard to see the stars if he was sleepin’ in the sewer (The gutta)
Smokin’ gas, car smelling like BP (BP)
Walkin’ in the club, we look like 3D
No entourage, just three deep
Imagine taking trips, risking it all to pick a bag up (Everything)
You know you goin’ to jail when they call backup
I’d rather my freedom, smoking good and runnin’ these racks up
Champagne spilling in the bathtub
I don’t give a fuck, I get mad love (Mad)
Shooter told me strap up
Go to war ’bout it if you have to
Why you got the answers? We ain’t ask you
Before I ever had a co-defendant I would tax you
When you in the field you could get tackled
Shit forever like a tattoo

[Chorus]
It’s so confusin’
Felt like I was winning, just to find out I was losin’ (I lost)
We ain’t know no better, if we could sell it, we gon’ move it (Uh)
Tired of tattin’ homies in my mind, I’m ’bout to lose it (Lose)
Came up with a plan, we got some grams and started boomin’ (Boom)
Tell me you love me but you hate me, it’s so confusin’ (Why?)
Made it out and still ain’t get to live, it’s so confusin’ (My nigga)
I gotta get a dollar just so it ain’t no confusion

It’s so confusin’ (It’s so confusin’)
Felt like I was winning, just to find out I was losin’ (Yeah)
We ain’t know no better, if we could sell it, we gon’ move it (Yeah)
Tired of tattin’ homies in my mind, I’m ’bout to lose it (Lose)
Came up with a plan, we got some grams and started boomin’ (Uh)
Tell me you love me but you hate me, it’s so confusin’ (Why you do that?)
Made it out and still ain’t get to live, it’s so confusin’
I gotta get a dollar just so it ain’t no confusion (So it ain’t no confusion)
