If you can see it with your mind you can get it with your grind I can see it in your eyes you ain't living what you rhyme We ain't skipping no steps we ain't cutting no lines We ain't sending no threats we gone catch them outside I really come from that place I've really done what they say It's hella hard to have faith when you struggle everyday Momma I'm gone make a way however long this shit take You deserve a damn break and a house by the lake If you don't love me then leave because it can get ugly indeed Heavy regime nobody petty as me bolt up a chevy caprice It feel like a dream I thought it never would happen I was out serving the stings and working with teens I know it sounds kind of crazy but it was worth it to me Quit judging a nigga Reason I don't fuck with niggas They feel they're better than you I never could lose So many women can't make a decision I never could choose Effortless too She's only here because I'm winning I know because I met her in school Where was you When I was stuck in the trenches and wearing the same pair of shoes Eastside Where we reside I been running around that hoe since I was knee high See the Muslims on the corner selling bean pies All my niggas selling bundles like the weave shop Niggas hide out Until the beef die We ain't ducking nothing but police lights Get your shop on for a cheap price I'm at home when I pull up on the east side This that shit we dream about I paid my dues and paid my plug Played by the rules and prayed for love Don't get it confused the road was rough No handouts I'm soldiered up Waiting on my cluck to sober up Every dollar going to the grind Studio time artwork and such You don't know shit about sacrifice All you know is take your ambition's fake What you know about losing your close friend They don't understand all the risks you take And they wish you'd make more time for them But the time is short can't miss a play I ain't stopping until they put me with the greats I ain't stopping until I know my momma straight Ain't no free time fuck having fun I'll have fun when the bag comes Play with my life I'll blast something Work too hard to die black and young Don't smack your tongue when you see me shining That's hater shit I don't condone that I don't give a damn if you support me Whole city know you're a known rat Yeah I'm on that Motherfucker I breathe for this Everything I need is this Always knew that I'd be the shit Crazy view and I see them pissed Niggas telling me to leave the crib Because soon as you go and make it big They murder you in the place you live Fuck them I'm hungry
