Ambition Of A Rider
[Intro]
Yea
Ughhh uhh
Uh look
[Chorus]
This the ambition of a rider
N***a really coming from the trenches
A survivor
Money coming in, so I can never slip
And if a N***a playing with that
He see 100 clip
They said that it’s pressure
They gone have to show me
I don’t care if I grew up with them
Them n***as still don’t know me
I ain’t backing down even if my back was against the wall
Yea you thought they was your n***as they just wanna see you fall
[Verse]
This shit get real
They done know how n***as feel
I done came up from the projects
Tryna run me up a mil’
And these n***as think that real
But deep down I know they ain’t rеal
You know that paperwork don’t lie
N***a I know that you squilled
So N***a what is thе deal
Up this bitch and blow this bitch at anybody
If anybody move then it’s gone be a body
I put that on everybody
Was in the trap and Cookin’ crack was really like a hobby
N***as just be talking
But I bet the know my body
Showed you the ropes
How you gone switch on us
Cause I’m the same reason they think bout keeping up
N***as don’t think bout running up
N***a know they can’t fuck with us Yea’
(Cause they can't fuck with us )
Somebody play then like a barber we gone touch em up
Let’s go (Yea)
Chorus]
This the ambition of a rider
N***a really coming from the trenches
A survivor
Money coming in, so I can never slip
And if a N***a playing with that
He see 100 clip
They said that it’s pressure
They gone have to show me
I don’t care if I grew up with them
Them n***as still don’t know me
I ain’t backing down even if my back was against the wall
Yea you thought they was your n***as they just wanna see you fall
[Verse]
Fighting with myself know I’ve been through it all
Running round the circle since I was a toddler
Never go to church cause I be sinning often
Fuck that bitch just like I should
And gave her what she wanted yea (Yea)
I keep on going up
How much shit it’s gone take for you to notice us
You ain’t never help me when I opened up Yea (Yea)
You keep on acting selfish I don’t owe you none Yea
Lost control again
I’m on that rode again
Everything I’m holding in you’ll never notice it
Cause you to busy being tied up
I’m in the trenches still surviving Yea (Yea)
Chorus]
This the ambition of a rider
N***a really coming from the trenches
A survivor
Money coming in, so I can never slip
And if a N***a playing with that
He see 100 clip
They said that it’s pressure
They gone have to show me
I don’t care if I grew up with them
Them n***as still don’t know me
I ain’t backing down even if my back was against the wall
Yea you thought they was your n***as they just wanna see you fall
