Safer route

Every time you enter I skip a beat 

Every time you belittle me I wanna pull the heat 

Trynna level you up got me 

Stab in the back 

It’s funny how the ones watch you get it 

Be the same ones trynna take it 

They told me let you live 

My wins gonna hurt you more than a bullet

You thought you was bulletproof 

Now look at you trynna pull thru 

You thought you had me figured out 

Should have took a safer route 

Now you look at you hook up to all them wires 

You crossed me for a bitch 

Just to turn around & have to fight for your life 

How did you get this shit confused 

I gave you all the tools 

But you had to get greedy

& try to take me out 

Should have picked a safer route
