[Produced by Red On the Beat] [Hook] When you're built this tough whose gonna help when times get rough When you're built this tough whose gonna help when times get rough (Red on the beat) [Verse 1] I'm the last of my kind they don't make 'em like trip no more I'ma be the same n***a rich or poor I'm just tryna get it like Richard Porter How I really make my ends have yet to be reported I am finally free I do what I wanna I answer to nobody because I'm my own employer Looking back at how I did it yeah I could have done it smarter But if's a big word so it's on to tomorrow And my baby's getting taller she need new clothes My momma here she gotta watch her glucose I got more guns i'm more paranoid Dunno who to trust yeah everybody suspect All I want is success close to saying f** this Then I got a phone call from somebody that cut checks yes yes No tears for the wounded deer in the wild When the wolves get hungry, never trust a smile One hunnid two hunnid nine hunnid thou Never mind me im just counting out loud Put some money in the bank 'stead of checking my account Like its Instagram or twitter I just marvel at my figure Like I'm looking in the mirror I'm like damn I'm getting bigger Is it true that money starts to alter your appearance? Lack of privacy it was the cost to how I'm living b**h I'm strapped pray I never have to k** a n***a with it Duffel bag stuffed with lots of cash I try not to brag Dead presidents inside that's a body bag Ain't that something else? Cold blooded b**h I bet I can make her melt I been cheating on you baby I've been seeing someone else I'm at the bank everyday tryna see what I got left I'm in the safe everyday but ima keep that to myself You built this tough then nobody ever helps I just sip a bit of truth and it heals all my welps If I been waiting on a label I would still be on the shelf No j**eler for me I don't follow any trends Bout to gather up a hunnid tryna buy a sprinter van Patient at the table hoping for a winning hand And if not ima play it through until they deal again and again If my fortune ain't as fly as Peter Pan I need double 'cuz i'm paying more than half to Uncle Sam Goddamn ! [Hook] When you're built this tough Who's gonna help when times get rough? When you're built this tough Who's gonna help when times get rough?
