[Intro: $id Tha Kid]
Yeah, it's Tha Kid
I see you, Nip
[Verse 1: Nipsey Hussle]
Look, black on black, pockets fat
Hoppin' out the seven strapped
Walk up to the club, don't pat me down, they just pat my back
All my n***as got chains on and we thick as fuck
Out of dress code, but rush the door 'cause we don't give a fuck
Standin' on the couches, poppin' bottles, smokin' weed
When you see them hoes flockin', then that's how you know it's me
I got power in these streets, big balls, boxer briefs
A gang of dead P-R-E-Z's in these expensive-ass jeans
Yeah, and I'm a beast off in them sheets
So if I pull, then I'm gon' squeez, as soon as I cum, then I'm gon' leave
Soon as I'm done, then I'm gon be back on my grind, back on these beats
'Cause I could never be a n***a that had it, lost it, and end up back in these streets
Nuh-uh, so it's all money in 'til I'm R.I.P.
And in my city, n***a, I am he and we are the O-N-E's
We bang hard like the drums on the beat
Nip Hussle (Ayy, let's go), keep your ear to the street, n***a
[Bridge: $id Tha Kid]
Yeah
Man, y'all already know what it is, the marathon continues
You feel me, this life ain't a sprint, gotta pace yourself
Hold on, let me do my thing though
Check it out
Yeah, uh
[Verse 2: $id Tha Kid]
If sky is the limit, I guess I'm a balloon
Only drop if I get popped, but if not, I stay shootin' for the moon
This real life, I deal with strife, but all you fools live in cartoons
Never been fed ideas, I ain't need a silver spoon
'Cause, me, I got it out the mud and like a flower, now I bloom
How I do it? I go stupid with the music, Looney Tunes
Power through it, I stay movin' morning to the afternoons
Even nights had to fight the melatonin, yawnin', but couldn't snooze
Now we poppin' bottles of booze, sometimes coppin' Prada and jewels
Stockin' up all the profits, but I keep it modest and cool
With my partners, dog, I just cruise through these waters 'cause I can't lose
Myself drownin' in pools of wealth, can't abuse the cards that I'm dealt
So I stay anchored to the deck, keep my tank full and save my breaths
'Cause I'm thankful I got this bread, I can't spend it all, gotta tread
I look ahead through these lenses, but I ain't never seein' ends
Face it, word to the Haitians, beyond the mountains, a new one begins
[Outro: $id Tha Kid]
Yeah
Just gotta tell it how it is, you feel me?
That's life, man
You a legend, Nip
It's Tha Kid
