(feat. Dona) |
|
Aiyyo, real niggaz live off of principles |
|
If you want it bad enough, I'ma give it to you |
|
If your nigga ain't faithful, then fuck him too |
|
I don't trust to many niggaz, just roll with a few |
|
East New York, flooded with Bloods |
|
I took care of responsibilities before I turned to Dove |
|
They quick to judge when they see me in the streets but fuck 'em |
|
Yall don't really live like me, in the hood like me |
|
With crackheads and dopefiends unconditionally |
|
I show love to the niggaz whose real with me and reality friends is hard to keep |
|
I can't trust nobody in the industry, motherfuckers don't want to see Dona eat |
|
I never been the type to panic, fall under pressure in dispair and vanish |
|
[Chorus x2] |
|
Respect me, I'm respect you |
|
Niggaz ain't stupid, they know who to step to |
|
Don't get it twisted, if you feel something handle your business |
|
Real niggaz recognize realness |
|
For years I've been waiting for this moment |
|
My feelings wrapped up in this moment, I can't control it |
|
Driven by something bigger than a dollar sign |
|
And momma always said make best of the worst times |
|
For the first time, I see shit clearly |
|
Writing at the table with captain crunch and dairy(?) |
|
Dare to be nothing like them, they turned their backs on God |
|
And he gave his only son, am I'm the only one whose keeing it real |
|
We struggle everyday just to eat a decent meal |
|
Keep a roof over our heads and over dead prez, they shooting at our heads |
|
And either way, our children suffer from lead |
|
You don't want to see me make it |
|
Rather see me dead/but real bitches do gangsta things |
|
I do whatever nigga to feed my team |
|
[Chorus] |
|
Seven days out of the week, I'm on my j-o-b |
|
Little to know sneak(?), my fam gotta eat |
|
Fuck trying to get by, we multiply |
|
In my hood everyday a young nigga dies |
|
Its a blessing to be alive, hungry to get these pies |
|
I drop versus, niggaz feel deep inside |
|
No question, its a respect thing, I'ma keep it real with Tims and Pepe |
|
All the money in the world couldn't change the way I think |
|
Streets are watching every move I make |
|
These niggaz are fake always coming at you wrong |
|
Brownsville still going strong |
|
Friends become enemies, nigga you never been a friend of me |
|
Always pretending to be my closet friend |
|
Like I'm stupid enough to let you in |
|
[Chorus] |
