Was it enough that I cut niggas half of what I bake? Ain't enough that I almost lost all my bread Bailin niggas out, keepin' a roof over our head Enough is enough I wash my hands I'm done wit it I ain't playin wit u motherfuckers come wit it Keep the fam together God knows I tried But shit ain't been the same since B.I. died [Hook 1] (I pray for love...
