By Myself Lyrics
[Intro: Lil Baby]
Yeah
Yeah, mm, mm
Hmm-mm
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 1: Lil Baby & Rod Wave]
We got pounds all on the counter
In the spot, watchin’ the cameras
I ain’t never scared to take a risk, I know life is a gamble
Can’t believe they turned they back on me
Now my life in shambles
I got money, thought they’d be happy for me
They’d rather see me in shackles
Startin’ the gas, I can’t go backwards
Fifty mill’ a year my average
Used to work that kitchen cabinet
Payin’ the block, they used laugh at me (Laugh at me)
Yeah, now I’m what they grab at (Yeah)
Back then, they would laugh at me (Yeah)
Now I’m who they grabbin’
My grandma, whatever she want from me
And she ain’t get no help
Niggas actin’ like they with you, turn your back, they’ll put ’em on ya
Feel like the coldest nigga ever, I got permanent pneumonia
There was times I needed help, I had to do it on my own
I ain’t cry, it made me strong
Fuck a nigga, I work my phone
They got jammed when we was younger
For fifteen years, D done been gone
I make sure I handle they lawyer fees
Determined to bring ’em home
They was hopin’ they’d take me out
But I had made it through the storm
I’m like shoutout to my cousin, dog, he was right there and he had to call (Uh, I’m a country boy, don’t wanna talk for long)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Had to cut my brother off, I can’t believe you broke the law (Niggas still sip codeine)
That shit really did somethin’ to my head
[Chorus: Rod Wave]
Uh, okay
Got all of this money pilin’, Lord, I wanna ball forever
You know I could really use Your help, yeah (Use Your help, yeah)
Thousand on a tractor-trailer, shoutout to my cousin, dog (Yeah)
I couldn’t have did it by myself, yeah (Did it by myself, yeah)
Okay, time and time again, I gave you last chances
Love life in the end, at least my pack landed (Yeah)
Thousand on a tractor-trailer, shoutout to my cousin, dog
I couldn’t have did it by myself, yeah (Did it by myself)
[Verse 2: Rylo Rodriguez]
Been off the pounds, we built for it, they touchin’ the clearport
Lil’ broski represented himself
He had beat the feds, he ain’t have a lawyer
Soon as we touchin’ the airport, we duckin’ the task force
Bro said he can’t wait ’til he see Alabama like Travis Barker
My opps got security, but the 12 I’m rockin’ with be Travis Hunter
I had zero to buy in fight night, now I get lost, took my mama
From the projects to loadin’ up a PJ, convicted felon
Since bro snitched on a dead man, he don’t think it’s tellin’
Can’t believe my cousin, dog
Can’t believe you took the stand
Can’t believe my hood and I
Was a couple niggas, still shook his hand
Wanna make lil’ Snoop a highlight tape, thank God he shook his hands
Had a thousand of ’em inside the trailer truck, he saw before they land
Soon as it touch down, hotel trap out of rooms
Shawty want me to pay to get her face beat, Metro Boomin
Postin’ weed on her story, you lucky the feds ain’t tuned in
Always actin’ like you know shit, she ain’t even stole shit
[Chorus: Rod Wave, Rod Wave & Rylo Rodriguez, Rylo Rodriguez]
Uh, okay
Got all of this money pilin’, Lord, I wanna ball forever
You know I could really use Your help, yeah (Use Your help, yeah)
Thousand on a tractor-trailer, shoutout to my cousin, dog (Yeah)
I couldn’t have did it by myself, yeah (Did it by myself, yeah)
Okay, time and time again, I gave you last chances
Love life in the end, at least my pack landed (Yeah)
Thousand on a tractor-trailer, shoutout to my cousin, dog
I couldn’t have did it by myself, yeah (Shoutout to my cousin, dog, did it by myself, yeah)
[Outro: Rod Wave, Rod Wave & Rylo Rodriguez]
I couldn’t have did it by myself, yeah, uh
I couldn’t have did it by myself, yeah
I couldn’t have did it by myself, yeah
I had some
