5th Child - Neva Lost Lyrics

Every step you take, I'll be three steps ahead of y'all
Big ballin', baby! What you thought, huh? (Neva Lost)
Paid the cost to do it so it's my time to set it off
Big ballin', baby! What you thought, huh? (Neva Lost)
Even if I didn't win I still (Neva Lost)
They gon' have to deal with me again so I (Neva Lost)
Yea, I neva lost. I ain't neva lost
Big ballin', baby! What you thought, huh? (Neva Lost)

Black man, black man, have you any pull
Yessuh! Hella bags, just to make em hella mad
We don't need no 4th quarter deals for your umbrella tax
If you ain't spreading fiction, what's the problem when I'm telling facts
Oh I see, it was cool when we was selling crack
Now we changed the rules, made a move and so you felt attacked
You big mad, huh? You should get some help for that
Over there like "Who he think he is?"
I thought you'd never ask
I rep the brand, see the logo in the photos
"How's he so high up in the sky flying solo?"
F' the shopping sprees, I need the keys to the stores
Rather cop my own table than beg for a seat at yours
My name is my name, I ain't waiting to be endorsed
And I ain't here to purchase your product, I need the source
Employee of the month? Please! I'd rather be the boss
Big ballin', baby! What you thought, huh? (Neva Lost)

Every step you take, I'll be three steps ahead of y'all
Big ballin', baby! What you thought, huh? (Neva Lost)
Paid the cost to do it so it's my time to set it off
Big ballin', baby! What you thought, huh? (Neva Lost)
Even if I didn't win I still (Neva Lost)
They gon' have to deal with me again so I (Neva Lost)
Yea, I neva lost. I ain't neva lost
Big ballin', baby! What you thought, huh? (Neva Lost)

Black man, black man, trying to buy the stage
That's gon' put them in a rage, they'd prefer it if you tap dance
Y'all can keep the advance/ 50-50 partnership
Cause if it don't recoup all the loot then they gon' garnish it
Nothing turns a profit like a black boy's dreams
It's like warm apple pie, it's the American scheme
Hold a knife at your future and they dare you to scream
Kill yourself, while they keep the lion's share of the cream
But it's a new day, We're eating off of new plates
Sick of eating crumbs, side of Ramen with the Kool-Aid
Hollering 'bout a group trade
Boy, I ain't no slave on a auction block
Sold by the dozens with my cousins for a private stock
Nothing's gonna stop me now, Y'all can quote that
Said that I was talking out of my league but now I own that
Gotta say it loud if it's a point you wanna get across
Big ballin', baby! What you thought, huh? (Neva Lost)

Every step you take, I'll be three steps ahead of y'all
Big ballin', baby! What you thought, huh? (Neva Lost)
Paid the cost to do it so it's my time to set it off
Big ballin', baby! What you thought, huh? (Neva Lost)
Even if I didn't win I still (Neva Lost)
They gon' have to deal with me again so I (Neva Lost)
Yea, I neva lost. I ain't neva lost
Big ballin', baby! What you thought, huh? (Neva Lost)

Every step you take, I'll be three steps ahead of y'all
Big ballin', baby! What you thought, huh? (Neva Lost)
Paid the cost to do it so it's my time to set it off
Big ballin', baby! What you thought, huh? (Neva Lost)
Even if I didn't win I still (Neva Lost)
They gon' have to deal with me again so I (Neva Lost)
Yea, I neva lost. No I ain't neva lost
Big ballin', baby! What you thought, huh? (Neva Lost)
