[Refrain]
You keep on takin' from me
But where's my ten percent?
You keep on takin' from me
I wonder where you went
You keep on takin' from me
But where's my ten percent?
You keep on takin' from me
[Chorus]
Why you tryna lie for them?
Pretending who you are
But baby, why even pretend?
You're trying way too hard
Ego is not your friend
I only speak the truth
No, I'm not trying to offend
But why you tryna lie for them?
[Verse]
I wake up, it's so good to be me
In the mirror, it's good to see me
I don't check for these other bitches
You can ask God 'cause that's my witness
You just don't have a clue who to be
Look in your eyes, I see the envy
I don't check for these other bitches
You can ask God 'cause that's my witness
[Chorus]
Why you tryna lie for them?
Pretending who you are
But baby, why even pretend?
You're trying way too hard
Ego is not your friend
I only speak the truth
No, I'm not trying to offend
But why you tryna lie for them?
[Refrain]
You keep on takin' from me
But where's my ten percent?
You keep on takin' from me
I wonder where you went
You keep on takin' from me
But where's my ten percent?
You keep on takin' from me
[Bridge]
I'm a psycho
All the animal
Run my money to me
Don't act like you didn't know
You've been watered down, baby
I gotta keep it pure
Where's my residuals?
[Refrain]
You keep on takin' from me
But where's my ten percent?
You keep on takin' from me
I wonder where you went
You keep on takin' from me
But where's my ten percent?
You keep on takin' from me
[Chorus]
Why you tryna lie for them?
Pretending who you are
But baby, why even pretend?
You're trying way too hard
Ego is not your friend
I only speak the truth
No, I'm not trying to offend
But why you tryna lie for them?
You keep on takin' from me
But where's my ten percent?
You keep on takin' from me
I wonder where you went
You keep on takin' from me
But where's my ten percent?
You keep on takin' from me
[Chorus]
Why you tryna lie for them?
Pretending who you are
But baby, why even pretend?
You're trying way too hard
Ego is not your friend
I only speak the truth
No, I'm not trying to offend
But why you tryna lie for them?
