Lyrics
Uh-huh (Heatmakerz, crack music) I fought the odds, yeah, I got the scars (I got the scars) When people wouldn't stand together, it all falls apart (Falls apart) My man got life, at night, he talks to God (Real) I sent his books a bean a week and he spends eighty on the calling cards Tryna stay focused, though (Stay focused, though) We did the light, it came do-si-do Halves was on at five like the Oprah show For seasons (For season), at the Four Seasons, the trees in (Roll up) The last laugh, the backstabs, the treason (Damn) And the money don't make it go away (Go away) I guess there ain't no rules up in the games we ain't supposed to play (Nah) He yelled, "f**k was I supposed to say?" (f**k was I supposed to say?) When we was in court, we lookin' back like, "You gon' get yours another day" (Another day) When you livin' good and least expect it (Least expect it) After you burn some other cats and need protection and we ain't connected (We ain't connected no more) Through bad money, it's like he infected (It's like he infected) So wear your mask and social distance, take this .38, it keeps the shells in (Here) From sittin' in that cell tryna count my blessings Back to ridin' dirty, I ain't puttin' down this weapon It's all about connections and it's all connected It's all about connections and it's all connected Money gettin' tight, yeah, I know you stressin' I can't show you love, 'cause you gon' think that you finessin' It's all about connections and it's all connected (Facts) It's all about connections and it's all connected (Capo) How you navigate life, that depends on your connections The man in the mirror, that all depends on your reflection If you f**k with us, you need more than protection 'Cause we like the army, we treat this war like a profession All this knowledge to kick, I'm way more than a professor If I had a charge for the class, you couldn't afford the lecture Used to keep the 44 in the drawer in the dresser I sold crack back then 'cause I couldn't work for the oppressor First ten grams'd have me feelin' like a kingpin They was tryna make 'em tinted back then, that was a thing then I couldn't work for the next man or convert to a yes man Seen uncle workin', cook crack, how I learned how to chef grams, f**ker And after that, I blew the block up Stopped at the light, I beeped twice, and I threw the top up Any beef sh*t, the whole street that my crew'll mop up These n***as'll be scared if any block, my crew pop up, f**ker From sittin' in that cell tryna count my blessings Back to ridin' dirty, I ain't puttin' down this weapon It's all about connections and it's all connected It's all about connections and it's all connected Money gettin' tight, yeah, I know you stressin' I can't show you love, 'cause you gon' think that you finessin' It's all about connections and it's all connected It's all about connections and it's all connected
