Taken for Granted Songtext
von J.I the Prince of N.Y

Oh-oh
Let me talk my sh-

I guess they forgot about all the blood and tears they were shedding on me
′Cause when I see 'em they act like they movin′ better than me
I shrug it off 'cause I know they ain't doin′ better than me
And I ain′t even gotta talk about these scars 'cause they embedded on me
So stop it, got a bunch of dead presidents that I can′t even name in these pockets
And I walk around with that strap, you might get clapped if you try to rob me
You gotta keep it gangsta with these h-, I ain't showin′ love to no sidepiece (oh, oh, oh)
And everything I did was off the strength

We pulled way too many muscles for us to work it out
And y'all can′t peak inside this window, I got the curtains down
Sometimes I let my shorty hold the grip, she be on point
Y'all n- make a move, she pull that Birkin out
These n- really think they spooky
It ain't sh- me to throw some Benjis on that goofy
Wanna turn a good girl to a freak? Throw Benjis on that coo-
You gotta stand on what you said, don′t dap me up if we ain′t Gucci


You better know what's up
And I still pull up to my hood sometimes to show ′em love
I think I popped too many Percs, I feel like throwin' up
And even if there′s blood on my flag, I'm still gon′ throw it up
On some real sh-, oh, oh

So please don't take my heart for granted
Please, don't take my trust for granted
I′m at the e-, tryna get some space
I know I might take some time but f- it, I′ll be okay

Please, don't take my heart for granted
Got high expectations for someone with low standards
Please, don′t take my time for granted
Please, don't take my trust for granted

Got a fall of with my dawg but there ain′t no beef
And if it's war, we not gon′ keep in the streets
All these drugs in my system, I ain't even tryna speak
Got withdrawals from your love, I ain't ever feel this weak
Before I sweat you, I′ll forget you like it′s nothin'
You got no respect, you disrespect me like it′s nothin'
And I ain′t tryna get burned in my own flame
If I get caught up, I'm sayin′ no name


It's a cold heart right under this gold chain
Double up my cup for this cold pain
In this big body, I'm swervin′ in my own lane
I′m racin' for that heart, I want my old flame back
Had to isolate myself now I′m alone
It's hard to remove all of these stitches from my soul
And if I think you on that bullsh-, I′ma introduce to this full clip, uh-uh

So please don't take my heart for granted
Please, don′t take my trust for granted
I'm at the edge, tryna get some space
I know I might take some time but fuck it, I'll be okay

Please, don′t take my heart for granted
Got high expectations for someone with low standards
Please, don′t take my time for granted
Please, don't take my trust for granted
