[Verse 1: August Alsina]
I don't always do what I should, but I do what I gotta do
When you've been at the bottom, you see the hunger inside of you
Don't say what you won't do cause it can all change
When the going gets tough it'll drive you insane
See I done dodged a couple shots, served a couple blocks
Hit a couple corners tryna shake a couple cops
I broke a couple rules, didn't graduate from school
Cause I was busy hustling when I thought that sh** was cool
[Pre-Hook: August Alsina]
See I gotta keep it real with you baby
Cause the sh** I used to do is what made me
And I'm hoping I ain't gotta go back to the trap
Cause we really know that we don't want that
[Hook: August Alsina]
But if I don't make it home tonight, tell my mama that I love her
Leave some flowers for my brother, girl I love ya
But if I don't make it home tonight, take some money to my sister
I don't ever want her chasing after n***as
Cause where I'm from n***as outchea dying every day
And they ain't not bad, they're just tryna make a way
And I ain't no different, so if I get missing these are my last wishes
I hope you'll get them right, girl, if I don't make it home tonight
[Verse 2: August Alsina]
I know it's harsh
But this is how I feel, girl it's coming from the heart
I hope it doesn't end the way it had to start
Cause it started out bad but I made it this far
But everyone ain't tryna to see me make it
Or they only wanna see me win so they can take it
Cause I know it's hard to find a job, so n***as k** and rob
There's a chance that I won't make it here tomorrow, being honest
[Pre-Hook: August Alsina]
Cause I gotta keep it real with you baby
Cause the sh** I used to do is what made me
And I'm hoping I ain't gotta go back to the trap
Cause we really know that we don't want that
[Hook: August Alsina]
But if I don't make it home tonight, tell my mama that I love her
Leave some flowers for my brother, girl I love ya
But if I don't make it home tonight, take some money to my sister
I don't ever want her chasing after n***as
Cause where I'm from n***as outchea dying every day
And they ain't not bad, they're just tryna make a way
And I ain't no different, so if I get missing these are my last wishes
I hope you'll get them right, girl, if I don't make it home tonight
[Verse 3: Jeezy]
Would you miss me? Would you miss me?
Would you walk up to my casket? Would you kiss me?
My life is schizophrenic, I'm just tryna stay sane
Pour a cup full, hope it take away the pain
I said you know I came from the projects, n***a
Don't care if it k** me, I die, I'll stay in the projects
You know I'm fresh as a motherf**er, in case that I die tonight
Got a lot on my mind, you know that I'm high tonight
I left that black Hublot home, so really I don't got the time
My n***a got by a quarter, heard that he dropped the dime
Failure's no option n***a, you out of your f**ing mind
Mixing my life and my freedom fool, so ain't none of you stopping mine
[Hook: August Alsina]
But if I don't make it home tonight, tell my mama that I love her

But if I don't make it home tonight, take some money to my sister
I don't ever want her chasing after n***as
Cause where I'm from n***as outchea dying every day
And they ain't not bad, they're just tryna make a way

But if I don't make it home tonight, tell my mama that I love her
Leave some flowers for my brother, girl I love ya
