Blood - sweat - tears - yeah - I traded it for profit
Outran fears - but they waiting in my coffin
I can't slow down cuz I hear the demons talking
They keep on knocking
Blood - sweat - tears - yeah - I traded it for profit
Outran fears - but they waiting in my coffin
I can't slow down cuz I hear the demons talking
And they keep on knocking

Stabbed me in the back I got a knife now
And I'm cold as ice now
I'm going take the right away
Cuz all I know is right now

F*ck the high road - I gotta travel way to many miles
F*ck a genre - what I gotta say decides my style
Gotta get high - just to balance out the lows sometimes
I didn't turn into a beast - a sheep is how I've been disguised

There ain't nothing sweet here
Like my blood got venom in it
Vultures trying to eat here
Watch em die off any minute

If catch me slipping you going have to wake up right away
Keep crossing the line - you going find - that I'm not for play
Devils on my shoulders - and he's telling me they gotta pay
They murked all my angels - so nobody's bout to tell me wait

I know we got different DNA - we cut from some different strands
I see the fix - I write the script - and then that shit's out my hands
It started simple - but now you see how it starts to span
That pain you gave away - I flip it cuz that's who I am

Blood - sweat - tears - yeah - I traded it for profit
Outran fears - but they waiting in my coffin
I can't slow down cuz I hear the demons talking
They keep on knocking
Blood - sweat - tears - yeah - I traded it for profit
Outran fears - but they waiting in my coffin
I can't slow down cuz I hear the demons talking
And they keep on knocking

These people wasn't working for me so I had to lay em off
I can tell that smile is fake - nigga you can take it off
I know if you see me on the edge - you'd try to push me off
Keep that same energy - killa - why you trying to talk

Tables turning - bridges burning just to light the way
I'mma keep on burning up - until I make brighter day
Told myself to turn this up - cuz I don't care bout what you say
All these fucking games get made - but yet with me you wanna play

I'm on the road where the roses can't grow
And niggas sell they soul just to pay the fucking toll
She wan't me to stop - but I can't even go slow
And I gotta keep the aim - cuz I see the damn goal

Life is held by worry - worry for what is pending 
And yet it's way to short - to worry about offending 
Doubts they've try to lend me - but I know I cannot borrow 
The world I live in is bending - and it might just break tomorrow

Blood - sweat - tears - yeah - I traded it for profit
Outran fears - but they waiting in my coffin
I can't slow down cuz I hear the demons talking
They keep on knocking
Blood - sweat - tears - yeah - I traded it for profit
Outran fears - but they waiting in my coffin
I can't slow down cuz I hear the demons talking
And they keep on knocking

All they do is take until I'm left here empty
All I do is hustle till I'm way too filthy
All I move is mountains and that's on the daily
Mind already made - so you cannot sway me

Lil mamma crying - think she need a tissue
It's funny - cuz my money's gotta thyroid issue
Counting blessings as I slide em up into the pistol
Need a blessing I'll provide it - cuz you know I got you

I've been talking to myself - cuz they can't take that honesty
I could make her melt - call my convo here cripy creame
If you need someone to lean on - then look away from me
If you trying hide a flaw - baby I ain't  maybelline

I gave everything - you tried to pull more out of me
No one's here to blame   - this beast was always inside of me
Now I'm changing thangs - upside down - stranger thangs
My nuts can't help but hang - yup - like orangatangs

Blood - sweat - tears - yeah - I traded it for profit
Outran fears - but they waiting in my coffin
I can't slow down cuz I hear the demons talking
They keep on knocking
Blood - sweat - tears - yeah - I traded it for profit
Outran fears - but they waiting in my coffin
I can't slow down cuz I hear the demons talking
And they keep on knocking
