Don’t Save Me Lyrics

Verse 1
Two feet when I touchdown
A few g’s on a bust down
2 seats on the bus now
you can’t take my, pride
23, going up now
Dom P in a motel
No beef I’m a cash cow
New keys to a black Cadillac going fast now
Pre Hook
Too hard in the paint you can’t hold me
Couple chains in the bank can’t own me
New friends, I’m still lonely
I uh, I uh
Might lose my head with the top down
Suicide Doors had to do it my self now
New friends but I do it my self now
I uh, I uh
Hook
Let me be great
Don’t kill my vibe
A lot on my plate
Can’t waste my time
Cognac to the face
I chase these highs
Bags in the safe
Tryna save my life
Too hard in the paint you can’t hold me
Couple chains in the bank can’t own me
New friends, I’m still lonely
I uh, I uh
Verse 2
I keep my head up I’m just tryna get by
When I was down and out, I still rolled the dice
I took my chances, I’ll get lucky in time
I count my blessings and thank God I’m alive
Couple bad bitches in the back with me
That’s too good I might OD
Coming from a town full of casualties
Had to turn those doubts to a master piece
Pre Hook
Too hard in the paint can’t hold me
Couple chains in the bank can’t own me
New friends, I’m still lonely
I uh, I uh
Might lose my head with the top down
Suicide doors, had to do it my self now
New friends but I do it my self now
Hook
Let me be great
Don’t kill my vibe
A lot on my plate,
Can’t waste my time
Cognac to the face
I chase these highs
Bags in the safe
Tryna save my life
Too hard in the paint can’t hold me
Couple chains in the bank can’t own me
New friends, I’m still lonely
I uh, I uh
Outro
I keep my head up I’m just tryna get by
When I was down and out, I still rolled the dice
I took my chances, I’ll get lucky in time
I count my blessings and thank God I’m alive
