At first they never thought of me But when I went out and won the lottery Woah- oh- oh That’s when they put their heart in me Thinking I’ll come back and fix their artery Now you come back After talking all that smack After saying I was wack Cuz I made it on a track But when I needed help You just put me on the shelf I had to make it by myself Now I have all of this wealth Man I’m self made Been that way since first grade Where were you when I got strayed Yeah you never gave me aid Now it’s been a whole decade And your back, what delayed Is it cuz I’m getting paid Don’t tell me I’m getting played Of course I am you’re not fam You just like me on the gram Following me like a lamb All this love your tryna cram You don’t truly give a damn Me you are just tryna scam I don’t care your in a jam So was I, so you can scram At first they never thought of me But when I went out and won the lottery Woah- oh- oh That’s when they put their heart in me Thinking I’ll come back and fix their artery I don’t really understand Why you don’t give me a hand All this time you were bland Now you come back you are grand You had all of this planned Now you’re just here for my land It is time I take a stand You are out, you are banned Now is when your nice When I have this paradise When I’m living life with spice Where was your sacrifice When I needed your advice I begged you twice, even thrice But you were cold as ice Now you’re gonna pay the price At first they never thought of me But when I went out and won the lottery Woah- oh- oh That’s when they put their heart in me Thinking I’ll come back and fix their artery I did this all alone I did this on my own I was never shown No one picked up the phone I was in my zone How I made it ain’t known No way you can clone But you’re here for my throne I was going fast, while you were going slow I was outcast, I was living real low For your help I asked, but you would never show But that was in the past, so I just let it go Look what I’ve amassed, I’m rapping with this flow Now with me you last, looking for the dough For once in contrast, I’ll be the one saying no You’re time with me has passed, and that you should know At first they never thought of me But when I went out and won the lottery Woah- oh- oh That’s when they put their heart in me Thinking I’ll come back and fix their artery Been working on the grind That’s how I got aligned You left me behind But now for me you find Now to me your kind After I got signed So you can get refined But you’ve already left my mind What did I say The price your gonna pay I don’t understand why me you wanna play When I needed help you were off and away Me you did betray You left me out to stray I had nowhere to stay And you thought it was okay Now karmas coming back and she wants to say hey But at the end of the day I’ll help you out and pray Just to show you how to live the right way At first they never thought of me But when I went out and won the lottery Woah- oh- oh That’s when they put their heart in me Thinking I'll come back and fix their artery
