[00:02.532] Yeah, vibe to this, DJ Flash, Little Brother
[00:10.362] Shouts to the 919, 252, 336, 704 (Yeah)
[00:16.656] You know what it is (Uh), let's go to work
[00:19.397]
[00:19.653] Yo, this been years in the makin'
[00:22.596] And when I talk about them years
[00:24.484] I'm talkin' 'bout the blood, sweat, and tears
[00:26.383] From the routes I was takin'
[00:27.749] Tryna avoid the dark cloud
[00:29.391] Took a couple L's, never lyin' on the ground
[00:31.567] Offer me a inch, I want the whole mile
[00:34.045] Wouldn't thinkin' 'bout the future
[00:35.354] Tryna live for the now
[00:36.708] My momma want a house still
[00:38.298] And my brother need lawyers for appeal
[00:40.186] No deal if the terms don't appeal
[00:42.064] Turnin' to a new page
[00:43.397] Kids don't read books
[00:44.794] Ownin' a little data can be celebrated
[00:47.001] Endurin' the test of time is an attribute
[00:49.423] I put my rep on the line every time I design a new rhyme
[00:52.645] Y'all sketches sound kinda cute
[00:54.288] You drawin' other conclusions, your opinion moot
[00:57.008] Rapper here for the bag, I need a new suit
[00:59.428]
[00:59.706] Nobody move, nobody gets hurt
[01:02.147] It's time to do work, tell 'em
[01:03.813] Just gimme what I came for
[01:05.668] If you got it out the mud, you ain't scared of the dirt, tell 'em
[01:08.698] Just gimme what I came for
[01:10.277] Where you from? Get you some, nigga
[01:13.775] Just gimme what I came for
[01:15.396] Oh yeah (Oh yeah), oh yeah (Oh yeah)
[01:17.807] Tell them people what you here for
[01:19.141]
[01:19.674] Man, life is marvelous
[01:20.474] Word to Paul Wall, I'm with all the shit s
[01:21.594] No matter how narrow the margin is
[01:24.004] For the art of it, not the artifice
[01:25.882] Gotta stay forthright
[01:26.947] 'Cause 2020 ain't shit without foresight
[01:29.455] County boy, Wake, Durham, Guilford, and Forsyth
[01:32.143] Where you can hear some Bill Withers under porchlights
[01:34.576] Settle down, find a nice girl and just chill wit' her
[01:37.304] Stay low and build wit' her, like Fortnite
[01:39.705] But while my city was fast asleep
[01:41.583] Before the South was bumpin' Master P
[01:43.247] My Ghetto dope was Bizzie Boyz, Nyborn, and Mixmaster D (Mixmaster D)
[01:46.767] Who ever thought it would get passed to me
[01:48.410] To write these songs, the fight goes on
[01:50.309] The nights is long and regimented
[01:52.164] So I can go on a run that's unprecedented
[01:54.352] Them bars is comedy, King, nigga, you Eddie Griffin
[01:57.049] Two pulls and a sip, now here's to better livin'
[01:59.183]
[02:00.005] I saw a miracle tonight, it's got me feelin' new (Yessir, yessir)
[02:05.658] Livin' inside of a dream
[02:09.978] Jump into a car to drive, right down 85
[02:15.151] Comin' home to you (One time, slow down)
[02:18.939]
[02:19.450] Nobody move, nobody gets hurt
[02:21.624] It's time to do work, tell 'em
[02:23.822] Just gimme what I came for
[02:24.901] If you got it out the mud, you ain't scared of the dirt, tell 'em
[02:28.185] Just gimme what I came for
[02:29.572] Where you from? Get you some, nigga
[02:32.815] Just gimme what I came for
[02:34.724] Oh yeah (Oh yeah), oh yeah (Oh yeah)
