8. Doesn't Just Happen (3:17)
(It doesn't just happen)
(It doesn't just happen)

Falling in love (It doesn't just happen)
Staying in love (It doesn't just happen)
Falling in love (It doesn't just happen)
Staying in love

Yeah, if bein' a good man was easy, I'd still be me, cah I do shit the hard way
I don't know who's who
My girlfriend hates me, deep down, maybe I do too
We used to jack niggas in the morning, cah most man didn't have cash when work's done
This type of dinner have your jawline thinner, man gonna think you had work done
See a man maintainin', see a man, wait, nah, see a man complainin'
I give her one order, I don't need restrainin', none of this shit came easy
Man put my name on a wall, only right, who you niggas throw mud at it?
Yeah, I got dirty money, but show me a pound or a dollar, and it doesn't have blood on it (It doesn't just happen)
Left us out in the dark, we saw things in the light where the end of the tunnel is
Therapy couch like Tony Soprano, black Viano
Hit an artery, stabbed in a major
That's staccato, cash or card though?
I got the country's sins on finance, I know we all wanna make it to heaven, but it— (It doesn't just happen)

Maybe you stopped putting in time
Somewhere along the line
And everything good
And everything good
Doesn't just happen
Doesn't just happen

Falling in love (It doesn't just happen)
Staying in love (It doesn't just happen)
Falling in love (It doesn't just happen)
Staying in love (It doesn't just happen)
Reaching above (It doesn't just happen)
Sending it up (It doesn't just happen)

And everything good
And everything good
Doesn't just happen
Doesn't just happen
