Counted Steps Lyrics by Rod Wave

Ghetto Gospel

2019

[Intro]
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, that's probably Tago
Tahj Money
Pipe that shit up, TnT
I remember, shit, bitch, I felt so stuck, bro
You feel me?
Niggas still get to the shit, you know, life comes with up and downs
You know what I'm sayin', but
From where I was at, you know, I hit my licks (Even when your back against the)
Now I see that it's just—

[Chorus]
Even when your back against the wall
Phone keep ringing, but no one you can call
Just know it's gon' get rough, it's gon' be tough
Just when you had enough, you can't give up
You gotta tell yourself
Forget about the pain you felt
Every move is a counted step
I know you got a little more left

[Verse]
Sometimes I sit and wonder will it change?
It be hard not to go under tryna maintain
Then I be feeling like they phone don't work both ways
'Cause they can call but I can't call no one for a thing
Remember when they told me we was gon' see better days
A week later Deja died, and now I'm full of pain
Remember when they told me that we finally made it through the rain
A month later, phone ring, and now Bang out in the grave
Bitch, it's crazy, it be tearing me apart
I be feeling like it's no one there to talk
And I be feeling like it's no one I can call
It be so much on my mind but I cannot get it off
But that money make me happy, I'm so thankful for my team
'Cause now we state-to-state, I finally get to live my dream
So even though you're broken and your past is full of pain
You gotta keep moving towards better days

[Chorus]
Even when your back against the wall
Phone keep ringing, but no one you can call
Just know it's gon' get rough, it's gon' be tough
Just when you had enough, you can't give up
You gotta tell yourself
Forget about the pain you felt
Every move easy, count each step
I know you gotta live one out
Even when your back against the wall
Phone keep ringing, but no one you can call
Just know it's gon' get rough, it's gon' be tough
Just when you had enough, you can't give up
You gotta tell yourself
Forget about the pain you felt
Every move is a counted step
I know you got a little more left
