Own Two

I don't wanna make mistakes again

I don't wanna say things I won't forget

Yeah, them

All their problems

No matter how hard, give

Never lean on another

Never lean, no hand is a high

I never leaned on another man

I learned to live on my own two

I never leaned on another man

I learned to live on my own two

My own two

Yeah, okay

Living on my own two ain't easy, babe

You drive me crazy, I need you, babe

Shit been kinda wild, so it's hard to say

That living on my own two ain't easy, babe

And when the words don't come out right

When the words don't come out right)

And when the feelings don't come out

Right (And when the feelings don't)

I'd rather deal with it on my own (I'd rather deal)

Than depend on you all my life

I never leaned on another man

I learned to live on my own two

I never leaned on another man

I learned to live on my own two

My own two

Living on my own two, no, it ain't no question

We see them black and whites, we ain't answering questions

Gotta stack a dollar, then we gotta stretch it

Eat what you kill, before you eat, you gotta bless it

If it's less than a half a moon, then it's a crescent

If it's less than a half a pound, now that's a session

I ain't talking Air Maxes when we checking

You fall, then you crash, that's recession, nigga, check it, nigga

Nothing in this world really worth being upset about

A boy to a man, and understand you gotta figure out

Do we take the vicious route? Do we take a different route?

No matter what the way, they gon' try to take a nigga out

I never leaned on another man

I learned to live on my own two

I never leaned on another man

I learned to live on my own two

My own two

They see greys, they anticipating retirement

Silverback, look, these follicles mean dominance

Nowadays, handouts considered a sin

Helping hands was a blessing when you fall in a ditch

World changing, people switch, that's lessons to be learned

Life's a gamble, understand that tables really do turn

On the dice, I'ma keep on shooting until I hit

If X marks the spot, I'm DMX-ing through this bitch

I never leaned on another man

I learned to live on my own two

I never leaned on another man

I learned to live on my own two

I'd rather live on my own two

Learned to live on my own two, baby

Yo, daddy boy used to go through them things

But we ain't go through them things long

Hehe, mama right around the corner

Mm
