Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ain't got no riches
Ain't got no money that runs long
But I got a heart that's strong
And a love that's tall
Ain't got no name, ain't got no fancy education
But I can see right through
A powdered face on a painted fool
[Verse 2]
Let me slip through (Let me slip through)
Why you tryna hold me back? (I ain't)
I'm just tryna move up front
Little more of this, little less of that (Can you feel me?)
Let me come through (Let me come through)
I'm tired being in the back (Aight)
I'm just tryna move up front
A little more of this, little less of that, yeah
[Verse 3]
They tell me I was born to lose
But I made a good, good thing
Out of bad, bad news
[Verse 4]
I don't worry, don't worry
Don't worry 'bout people in my face
I hit 'em with the style and grace
And watch their ankles break, oh, oh
I know you wish, I know you wish I would fade away
But I got more to say, Lord, they pray, ow
[Verse 5]
Let me slip through (Let me slip through)
Why you tryna hold me back? (I ain't)
I'm just tryna move up front
Little more of this, little less of that (Can you feel me?)
Let me come through (Let me come through)
I'm tired being in the back (Aight)
I'm just tryna move up front
A little more of this, little less of that, yeah
[Verse 6]
They tell me I was born to lose
But I made a good, good thing
Out of bad, bad news
[Verse 7]
Alright, alright, all day, all night
Alright, alright, all day, all night
Alright, alright (Oh why)
All day, all night (Oh why)
Alright, alright (Oh why)
All day, all night (Oh why)
[Verse 8]
They tell me I was born to lose
But I made a good, good thing
Out of bad, bad news
