I've been a
Round long enough to tell the real from the joke niggas
Round long enough to tell the rich from the poor niggas
Niggas don't post niggas but they gon' quote niggas
Niggas don't feel niggas so we gotta show niggas
Saw us in the towns and them niggas never spoke to us
Niggas wanna clown but they know they can't joke with us
When it goes down I could count on like fo', so know if it goes down niggas coming through the door with us
If it goes down, we turn niggas into pope niggas, hospital gowns
Thassa joke nigga
Not the same kind guess I really gotta show niggas
Never really frown, so they think that imma cope
Kicking, screaming ass niggas get mistaken for some door kickers
Swear I'll never be another corny ass old nigga dawg
If I ever frown that's the day that pop
She buss me down, imma give her the crown
And then dip out the town and that's word to my pops
I'm tryna clean all that shit out my genes, but that shit in her jeans, maybe junior could stop
Been in the game so damn long man I swear I could coach
Way before 98 did it, been doing the most
That's my dawg, really my twinno, we both show our horns when we come out that fog
If I'm the grave digger, then he be that nigga that rise from the dead when I drop a new song
I close my eyes and I see a few thousand that's singing my songs and I'm singing along
Touched a few souls on this less traveled road
Gave a lil game, hope It give niggas hope
Hope I repair the lost time with my folks
I'm baring my soul, I may get a lil choked up
Break a few rules, but I won't break the code
Made some mistakes, as my mother would say, at the spite of my face I would cut off my nose
Tryna man up, had to cut off some hoes
Tryna advance without needing to tend to the needs of the men that taught all that I know
Tryna pretend that I'm really that man that I use to convince should put fear foes
Tryna be them, while still tryna be him, while the child in me bend, but we'll see how that goes
Niggas been
Talkin real crazy
Really be
Wishing they saved it
Can I be
Real witchu baby
Can you be,
The B to my Jay-Z
Always been
Okay with exploring, until I find out what's for me
Never was scared to become an old nigga
I'm scared that it mean I get corny
Like a few of them niggas before me
