[Verse]
These cowards all claim to be real
But they just like the way it sounds
They don't know how I feel
And I ain't saying that I'm realer than any n***a
But all the shit I been through would either break you or bend you
Round here you don't make no wishes won't nobody listen
I gotta get it
Got a list full of shit that I gotta do before I return to the ditch
I gotta watch out for my moma
Keep the payments upon the house cause I'll be damned if she never get to retire
Gotta take my woman round the world
And do all the shit she dreamed about when she was just a girl
And that's my word
I gotta get as much knowledge as I can so when I sow my seed
They can grow farther than their father could ever see
I gotta put on for my city, out on for the East
Gotta stay down for my n***as that's down to ride for me
I got a lot of stress on my mind
But where I'm from we go against the grain
That's the reason why we call it the grind
What you know about
Coming down '59 with so much shit in the whip
That we pray the dog never sniff
And we only hustle to flip until we never have to make a trip again
Keep the money in the safe, I never spend
What you know about putting on for your people
Went from walking to the bus to a regal
My drive ain't never been questioned
The eagle don't fly with the wind, so pressure's often deceitful
Whether legal or illegal
I just follow one direction
That's real shit
