Oh yeah
I know you see me, i
I saw you from afar
Then the beat go
Then the beat go
I know the cost
To be the boss
I know my price
Buy cheap, buy twice
I know the cost
To be the boss
I know my price
Buy cheap, buy twice
I know the cost
To be the boss
Everyday
(everyday)
Don't sleep just pray
(Sleep just pray)
My thoughts won't waste
(Thoughts won't waste)
On yesterday
(On yesterday)
Before I roam
(Before I roam)
Gotta feed my home
(Feed my home)
If demons strike
Let angels rise
Cause my vision is verified
We ride at dawn
I know the cost
(Uh uh)
To be the boss
(Ok)
I know my price
Buy cheap, buy twice
What they want from me
Look at their jealousy
They won't find a way to keep (to keep)
What is meant for me
They'll have love for you
Only if you lose your truth
They won't find a way
To keep what is meant for me
Cause it's my time for sure
Finally found the key to the door
Gonna find a way to keep
What is meant for me
Gonna find a
So I try to find my way
So it won't be me someday
So I try to find my way
So it won't be me someday
So I try to find my way
So it won't be me someday
So I try to find my way
So it won't be me someday
Oh yeah
I know you see me, i
I saw you from afar
Then the beat go
Then the beat go
I know the cost
To be the boss
I know my price
Buy cheap, buy twice
I know the cost
To be the boss
I know my price
Buy cheap, buy twice
I know the cost

I'm just tryna be
Build a place, a family
Find a place where I belong
If it grows, it will grow strong
I'm just tryna go
To a place where I can grow
Find a place where I'd be free
Wanna advance my family tree
My baby's up above
Know he's smiling down on me
Imagine eyes I didn't see
If he was here
He would roam free
Ah, ah, oo
Ah, ah, oo
Ah, ah, oo

Note from Tracy
"Hey Guys, so happy to release my new single " Buy Cheap, Buy Twice. When I tell you, I am so happy to release this to the world. I mean it with all my heart. This song might be super sassy and energetic but people believe it was birthed in joy and perfected through grief. I need something to distract myself from my thoughts and situation and this was where I placed my focus. And when I say "I know my price, buy cheap, buy twice", I am not even talking about stuff of monetary value. Sometimes, when you have been through deep shit in life, you just draw a line in the sand about your boundaries. Anyway, enjoy. Share with your friends. Tell me what you think. Thank you to my friend, Klein Sserwadda for the beautiful Bassline that brought the track to life. Thank you to Adi for being so patient with me during the mix and master. This might be out 5th mix look. Also, this is the first track from my next project that comes out later this year. Enjoy!"
