Never Needed No Extras

Chorus

I prayed for a way, mama told me it’d get better

Phone ring late, they need somethin I never let up

Turn pain to treasure, had to make change in the weather

Just me and my brothers, we never needed no extras

(Yeah, for real)

Hook

Slow wins I take 'em, losses I ate 'em, still movin patient

Stuck to the code, no fakin, still with the same ones I came with

Verse 2

Lost a lot just grindin, had to bleed so my people could eat

Sweat stains on a white tee, never could buy my sleep

Love ain't loyal, but pain don't cheat

My story like the soles on my kicks—worn but deep

Talk slick, my past been cold, I let time thaw

Chasin' a purpose, same ones who doubted, now they call

Double up scars turn wisdom, that's law

Diamonds from the mud when my back to the wall

Pre-Chorus

Heart on my sleeve, can't stitch what got torn

Tryin to heal, but where I'm from, bein real gets you warn

Family first, tighter than the grip on my form

Stuck to my word like the steel in my arm

Chorus

I prayed for a way, mama told me it’d get better

Phone ring late, they need somethin I never let up

Turn pain to treasure, had to make change in the weather

Just me and my brothers, we never needed no extras

(Still never)

Hook

Slow wins I take 'em, losses I ate 'em, still movin patient

Stuck to the code, no fakin, still with the same ones I came with
