I ain't got no job
Young nigga, I ain't got no job
I trade a 401k for a AK
'Cause when my vitals stop
Grind don't stop
The grind won't stop when my vitals stop
Mind on plot, so I don't talk
Trade a lifelong girl for a thot, yap
Marathon, that's 4K
Some niggas sold they self for just 4K
I trade a 401k for a AK
And bet I'm not hungry the next day
They told my little homie: Crime pay
And he got scolded the next day
He on parole for the next few
He older with the same case
Earned his stripes like he signed with Adidas
Trade a W9 for a. 9 millimeter
All my niggas did time, then got beat up
But I was never street enough to grow up and be a thug
Because I went to school every day
I went to school every day
Learned shit don't matter, niggas shoot every day
I had a 3. 9 that shit didn't matter
What's a 401k?
Young nigga, I ain't got no job
I trade a 401k for a AK
'Cause when my vitals stop
The grind don't stop
The grind won't stop 'cause when my vitals stop
Mind on plot, so I don't talk
Trade a lifelong girl for a thot, yap
Marathon, that's 4k
Some niggas sold they self for just 4k
I trade a 401k for a AK
And bet I'm not hungry the next day
GPA don't estimate shit
Money you make, not your class average
'Cause niggas was so broke they couldn't afford schooling
How all them niggas get rich? (Rich)
Man, it seems like everybody trying to get a hold of me
But little do they know I'm barely holding like rosary
Before I'll be the success story I'm supposed to be
I'll probably end up on the news and just so I eat
If I commit a crime would you love me still?
A refill if I'm empty, drugs hella temptin'
My girl just left me, told her I'm empty
Tell her I'm pimpin', her friend look temptin'
'Cause I ain't go no job
Young nigga, I ain't got no job
I trade a 401k for a AK
When my vitals stop
The grind don't stop
The grind won't stop 'cause when my vitals stop
Trade a 401k for a AK
Trade a lifelong girl for a thot
It's niggas trading shots over blocks
I'd rather trade blocks for some stock
I knew a homeless man stayed on my block
He'll trade everything he got for a rock
Fuck it I cannot starve
Fuck it I cannot starve
I'll trade an A&R for an AR
'Cause fuck it I cannot starve
