T.I. Lyrics

17. Collect Call

[Chorus] 
Try to build the world and i'm standin tall 
But if i ever ever have to take a fall 
Will you accept my collect call 
Will you accept my collect call 
Cuz everybody loves you when you ballin 
But don't nobody want you when you bawlin 
But i know will you accept my collect call 
But i know will you accept my collect call 

[T.I.] 
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 suprise hearin from the inside 
Everybody talkin bout me like the nigga just died 
Tip gone 20 years at the least get 5 
Man niggas just lie for suspicion of they snitchin 
Not to mention the rumors of me committin 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] 

[T.I.] 
I ain't never asked a nigga to do shit for me 
I wouldnt do in return but guess you live and your learn 
Dont 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 don't 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 same cant wait to get a nigga off the street 
They hate to see me sittin on buckets off c 
Dog beat bet to you don't even make sense 
But that mentality exactly why you'll never be grieved hata 

[Chorus] 

[T.I.] 
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 everytime 
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 
Suprised haters and came out gun a blazin 
Theoretically speakin but you rather be thinkin 
Ill 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
