LYRICS FOR "Be Real"
If you a thug my nigga be a thug
If you sell drugs my nigga then sell drugs
If you gonna rap about it be trill about it
And dont say s*** if you can't BE REAL about it
If you a thug my nigga be a thug
If you sell drugs my nigga then sell drugs
If you gonna rap about it be trill about it
And dont say s*** if you can't BE REAL about it
Comin up as a child my city was hell
My moma was the best soldier
I came robbin and kickin in doors
Then on my behalf and 17 old
But ya see shorty
She made it real easy for my sista and me
She did what she had to do
Out the damn crowd like a nigga would do
Talkin about pimpin
I got robbed and this old nigga took all my loot
And I was just 12 years old on 13 skin
And bones thats why I thank my heart to sell dope
I gives a f*** about none of you hoes
All you fake thugs think about is grills and gold
And pressin these doors
(Shorty) and cakin these hoes
I'ma pimp
If you a thug my nigga be a thug
If you sell drugs my nigga then sell drugs
If you gonna rap about it be trill about it
And dont say s*** if you can't BE REAL about it
Nobody loves me so I guess I stay to myself
A nigga thinkin bout change comtemplating my death
Fell my pain as it reigns all over a nigga
And the only way I can get away is weed and liquor
F**** niggaz up on the daily if they didnt pay me
Niggaz pullin guns on me damn near drove me crazy
Young nigga went to school just to sell some dope
A lil crazy ass nigga wit a knife in his coat
And in the streets broke heathens
Went through drama especially
Moma swung on a nigga
I stabbed the b**** in her head (nigga)
I don't scratch my head unless it itches
And I don't smoke unless I'm bustin at you hatin b******
Nigga we was brave to die
Ill rather hustle in the cold 'cause niggaz sprayin wit fire
All the childhood fixins wit tha devil inside the kitchen
Got my mind on my gun and I'm finna pull a pistol
You see the streets
Mind body and soul
And leave you in a ditch wit no shoes and clothes
Waitin for the trash collector
Follow me mind selector to the ghetto sector
They'll kill you over thirty dollars
I seen a man cut wit a dirty bottle
Blood squirted on his shirt and collar
I heard him holla a sound that I cant forget
Ran home
And to this day moma thought I was young
Hungry
While she was at the church praising the lord
I made through amazingly unscarred
She had to be praying 'cause I made it by the grace of the god
Im proud of my hard times
Bible in one hand
Dreaming of naming streets and boulevards mine
Grab yo piece of the pie
If you a thug my nigga be a thug
If you sell drugs my nigga then sell drugs
If you gonna rap about it be trill about it
And dont say s*** if you can't BE REAL about it
If you a thug my nigga be a thug
If you sell drugs my nigga then sell drugs
If you gonna rap about it be trill about it
And dont say s*** if you can't BE REAL about it
