Ah-ah-ah

Up in my cup, yeah

I let my feelings build up (uh-huh, uh-huh)

I just pour it up in my cup

oh, yeah, yeah

And if you said that you real, how come you gone now?

I be calm all the time, I turn up, they say, calm down

I pull up in a new wraith, that's just what I'm on now

We dropped the top to ride around, look back, the Sun down

I look around to see who hatin', count who switched on me

Peep all these new hoes in my contacts but she been on me

I like it one girl at a time, lately, I been on three

I cannot Jack you, shawty, I heard that you was a skeet

You don't know who gon' be there when you down

But you know who gon' be there when you up

I let my feelings build up

So now I just pour it up in my cup

Girl, you didn't fuck with me then

So why you fuckin' with me now?

Baby, I know you been broke

What you know about ballin' out?

You can smell x when I breathe, niggas get stretched if I bleed

Fifty k cash when I sneeze, I done went diamond in the streets

Cut off my dog, he a leech, Glock go baow if he reach

Killers involved when I preach, asked one opp but he sleep

I'd give it all to my dawgs, motivate law when he call

A hundred and fifty on the patek, I could've got the car with the stars

I be rappin' 'bout blocks, I'm promotin' my scars

He ain't know about the lamb', I told 'em, it's ours

From percs to bars, from guns to cars

From coke to narc, from small to large

Who really with you when it's said and done?

They gon' try to get you, so you better run

You don't know who gon' be there when you down

But you know who gon' be there when you up

I let my feelings build up

So now I just pour it up in my cup

Girl, you didn't fuck with me then

So why you fuckin' with me now?

Baby, I know you been broke

What you know about ballin' out?

You don't know who gon' be there when you down

But you know who gon' be there when you up

I let my feelings build up

So now I just pour it up in my cup

Girl, you didn't fuck with me then

So why you fuckin' with me now?

Baby, I know you been broke

What you know about ballin' out?

Sometimes I miss the days of hunger, standin' in the rain

'Member when I didn't have shit to lose and everything to gain

Yes, I'm grateful for my blessings, no, I shouldn't complain

But what about when I got doubts? I woke up feeling drained

Death was just so normal in these streets, another youngin' slain

My uncle died from a shootout, left murder on my brain

Show no mercy, kill 'em all, that's how we was trained

Crime scene pictures, can't forget about them blood stains

Wounded memories, oh, I'm in need of novocaine

Got me wishin' that these percs could really numb the pain

Catch me, don't got my gun, I guess I'm leavin' with this chain

Long live mike durb, I won't let them say your name in vain

You don't know who gon' be there when you down

But you know who gon' be there when you up

I let my feelings build up

So now I just pour it up in my cup

Girl, you didn't fuck with me then

So why you fuckin' with me now?

Baby, I know you been broke

What you know about ballin' out?

You don't know who gon' be there when you down

But you know who gon' be there when you up

I let my feelings build up

So now I just pour it up in my cup

Girl, you didn't fuck with me then

So why you fuckin' with me now?

Baby, I know you been broke

What you know about ballin' out?
