I'd rather be by myself than a broke nigga

I'd rather be myself than a broke nigga

[Verse 1: Keyshia Dior]

I'd rather have a nigga in the [?]

[?] nigga with no bread

I'm a bad bitch, you know I got my own checks

Stack my own M's, I ain't ever gotta beg

I'm a pretty goon, I put this change up on your head

[?] creusing in my white drop head

My nigga got the sack, you know I'm fucking with a boss

I just bought a Phantom, bitch don't ask me what it cost

[Chorus: Gucci Mane & Keyshia Dior]

I'd rather be by myself than a broke ho

I'd rather be by myself than a broke ho

I'd rather be by myself than a broke ho

I'd rather be by myself than a broke ho

I'd rather be by myself than a broke nigga

I'd rather be by myself than a broke nigga

[Verse 2: Gucci Mane]

Bad bitches only, I'd rather be loenly

Wish she was a broke bitch, we [?]

Riding solo with my Rari, [?]

[?] in the morning

And I don't even want her, give me a warning

Know you got no money, get your deploma

But I don't even want it, she got no currency

It's Gucci Mane LaFlare, I got that money

My bitch she got that money, that's why I fuck with her

You know we got them M's, feel like I'm stuck with her

You know I got that stendo, so please don't touch on her

She don't need no [?], but [?] on her

It's Gucci!

[Chorus: Gucci Mane & Keyshia Dior]

I'd rather be by myself than a broke ho

I'd rather be by myself than a broke ho

I'd rather be by myself than a broke ho

I'd rather be by myself than a broke nigga

I'd rather be by myself than a broke nigga

I'd rather be by myself than a broke nigga

I'd rather be by myself than a broke nigga

I'd rather be

I'd rather be

I'd rather be by myself than a broke nigga

I'd rather be myself than a broke nigga

[Verse 3: Keyshia Dior]

My shoes got [?], that ain't no lie, nigga

If you ain't talking guala, then it's bye, nigga

My car got double wings, you know I'm fly, nigga

I got these haters feeling chilly, [?] nigga

I rock [?] heels, [?] Luie shit [?] played out

My money up, I'm stuntin hard, you roach niggas, you get sprayed out

I live the life you wish you had, my private jet is so layed out

I'm the CEO of my own company, what the fuck y'all niggas talking bout?

[Chorus: Gucci Mane & Keyshia Dior]

I'd rather be by myself than a broke ho

I'd rather be by myself than a broke ho

I'd rather be by myself than a broke ho

I'd rather be by myself than a broke ho

I'd rather be by myself than a broke nigga

I'd rather be by myself than a broke nigga

I'd rather be by myself than a broke nigga

I'd rather be by myself than a broke nigga

I'd rather be

I'd rather be

I'd rather be

I'd rather be by myself than a broke nigga

I'd rather be myself than a broke nigga
