No Egos Lyrics by Sam Shoemaker

2019

They poison the well but, you drink till you sleep
They said there's a wolf, I don't see a wolf, I think it's a sheep
They want me to fail but, they're watching me eat
You play not to lose you already lost, I'm playing for keeps
Playing for keeps, playing for keeps playing for
I'm playing for keeps, I'm playing for
Playing for keeps, playing for keeps playing for
I'm playing for keeps, I'm playing for
They poison the well but you drink till you sleep
Playing for keeps, playing for keeps playing for
I'm playing for keeps, I'm playing for
Playing for keeps, playing for keeps playing for
I'm playing for keeps, I'm playing for
They want me to fail but they're watching me eat


I woke up in the condo, wrote a suicide note
It said:
"The price of the life that I want is the life that I have, what you die for?"
Ah what do I know, try and tell my people all to wake up but they eyes closed
Everybody running with the same blood, type-O
Me, I've got Dame in my veins, game five in an iso
Turn, word, took 'em all to church
Told you listen up but you didn't want to learn
Well OK, there's no terms, if I build another bridge than it's just gonna burn
So, no sir, I said no sir
Come here late don't expect no work
Big homie told me boy get yours first
Put the team on next watch the net grow worth
Talk about a team cause I have one, Talk about God cause I need one
Shout out to the fans that I met on tour, my home town coming with the least love
Respect from my region, well maybe I get it and maybe I won't
Last time I checked it's my name on the visa I swiped so I'll leave it alone
Just leave it alone...

They poison the well but, you drink till you sleep
They said there's a wolf, I don't see a wolf, I think it's a sheep
They want me to fail but, they're watching me eat
You play not to lose you already lost, I'm playing for keeps
Playing for keeps, playing for keeps playing for
I'm playing for keeps, I'm playing for
Playing for keeps, playing for keeps playing for
I'm playing for keeps, I'm playing for
They poison the well but you drink till you sleep
Playing for keeps, playing for keeps playing for
I'm playing for keeps, I'm playing for
Playing for keeps, playing for keeps playing for
I'm playing for keeps, I'm playing for
They want me to fail but they're watching me eat


No cheat codes, no egos, I don't need one, go and keep yours
All I need is my genius, I know I know what I am...
No cheat codes, no egos, I don't need one, go and keep yours
All I need is my genius, I know I know what I am...
Thou doth protest, how can you reject
I used to wake up every morning thousands in debt
Always checking on my balance, ain't no balancing my check
Bout to hire an accountant just so I can get some rest
Every time I look down I have another text
Some promoter out in Dallas told me go and hop a jet
Out of town shows yeah I'm bout to go and flex
Everything I talk about well I watch it manifest, Hey
Reap what I sow, Reap what I sow
Don't need your blessing I set my intention
To end up a legend I already said it's inevitable
Everybody talking bout their leverage like I'm looking for their mention
Man I wish that they would stop
Let my whole squad drip boy you know how we live
In the code that's life by the drop, said it's life by the drop...


Playing for keeps, playing for keeps playing for
I'm playing for keeps, I'm playing for
Playing for keeps, playing for keeps playing for
I'm playing for keeps, I'm playing for
They poison the well but you drink till you sleep
Playing for keeps, playing for keeps playing for
I'm playing for keeps, I'm playing for
Playing for keeps, playing for keeps playing for
I'm playing for keeps, I'm playing for
They want me to fail but they're watching me eat
No cheat codes, no egos, I don't need one, go and keep yours
All I need is, my genius, I know I know what I am...
They poison the well but, you drink till you sleep
You play not to lose you already lost, I'm playing for keeps
