Junior Charles - Cost Lyrics

Tell me what it takes to be the boss
I heard happiness is what it cost
I know how it feels to take a loss
Every time I win just know I fought
Ooo
Wanna flex, cop some ice
Risk it all, bet you pay the price
I know how it feels to take a loss
Every time I win just know I fought

See I was down down
I was whipping that 4Runner all around town
Bumpin' Blackout I was proud proud
Felt like a nigga had the crown crown
But I was confused and stressed
None of this felt like true success
Nigga life lookin' like booze and breasts
Man in the mirror I just knew him less
Foolish? Yes
Life hit ya boy had a nigga torn
I was living a life that was not my own
Seen the bottom of too many bottles I was gone
Devil taunting me I had to ask the Lord

Tell me what it takes to be the boss
I heard happiness is what it cost
I know how it feels to take a loss
Every time I win just know I fought
Ooo
Wanna flex, cop some ice
Risk it all, bet you pay the price
I know how it feels to take a loss
Every time I win just know I fought

I took them L's and them dubs I deserved them all
Turned them L's into Lessons that's the perfect cause
And effect
Had to come correct
Perfect when together like Brady, Belichick
Why you leave Brady
Now I see it clear ain't got time for niggas
Y'all be lurkin', y'all be searchin' tryna find me nigga
But you can't see me when I'm in my own lane
I just pray you niggas do the same
Cuz life gon hit you have you feeling torn
Have you questioning like what you living for
You could never be rich when your mind is poor
But the blind lead the blind you could never know

Tell me what it takes to be the boss
I heard happiness is what it cost
I know how it feels to take a loss
Every time I win just know I fought
Ooo
Wanna flex, cop some ice
Risk it all, bet you pay the price
I know how it feels to take a loss
Every time I win just know I fought
