Collect Call Lyrics
I know it’s been a minute since I had a one-on-one with you
Or should I say a one-on-one near you
But I just gotta say that through this little period of my life
I really see how fucked up some of you suckas really is
Remember I don’t really need shit
It’s the thought that counts
[Chorus]
On top of the world and im standin tall
But if i ever ever had to take a fall
Will you accept my collect call
Will you accept my collect call
Cuz everybody loves you when you ballin
But dont nobody want you when you fallin that i know
Will you accept my collect call that i know
Will you accept my collect call
[verse 1]
I was told way back in the day when I was trappin
Nevermind what niggas say judge em all on they actions
Its hard to imagine when you travelin
Havin fun gettin paper catch a case and see how niggas act then
Out a cell partner been fired he rattin on me
Got a little benja pension now they turn they back on me
Shit cuz out of sight is out of mind
Better put your trust in God homie man will let you down everytime
And I’m speaking experience, serious
Imagine my surprise hearin’ from the inside
Everybody talkin’ bout me like the nigga just died
Tip gone 20 years at the least bet five
Man niggas just lie for suspicion of they snitchin’
Not to mention the rumors of me committing suicide
God will open your eyes and show you who really wit ya
But keep it in the back of your mind when its over how niggas did ya
[Chorus]
[verse 2]
I ain’t never asked a nigga to do shit for me
I wouldn’t do in return but guess you live and your learn
Don’t expect my well bein to be a nigga concern
Cuz I know that ain’t the way the world turn
Cuz everybody love to see a nigga assed out
Rather see ya lose it all than to see ya cash out
They gossip like bitches I dont even ask how
Cuz niggas ain’t shit i believe that now
And it even matter how much you do for people they’ll love to
See you beat down livin’ in the gutta, what a
Shame at the least in the game when you see
They want you locked up more than the police
The sucka can’t wait to get a nigga off the street
They hate to see me sittin’ on butter soft seats
Dog beat bet to you don’t even make sense
But that mentality exactly why you’ll never be rich
hater
[Chorus]
[verse 3]
I remain a stand up guy no matter what I
Stood tall chest out head up high
Wit my back against the wall layin’ it all on the line
Wit God on my side I perform every time
Must I remind you
Similar to a miracle just short of amazin’
Survived shit that would’ve drove most niggas crazy
Rose to the occasion whatever situation
Surprised haters and came out guns a blazin’
Theoretically speakin’ but you rather be thinkin’
I’ll fold cuz u want a view of me I know
All I got is the family friends come and go
And with that understandin I put none before
My folk you know enough to do the same I hope
If not, shit ya ass will find out
When ya on top everybody wanna ball wit ya
but when ya not you wouldn’t even know who to call would ya
[Chorus]
Or should I say a one-on-one near you

idk why this track wasn't added onto the main CD rather than a bonus track. it's easily as good as any other on Paper Trail if not better than a couple others.
I could just play this track over and over
basically he's saying make sure you know who your real friends are. People always love gravitating to those who are on top. But those same people can or will leave you or turn on you when you're no longer on top and really need them. But true friends and family will stay by your side and help you out no matter what, and those are the people you should keep tight to you
