Really from the town so you can'tcritique it
WORDS SPEAK LIFE life so I gotta speak it
You niggas ain't
Got enough to lose but got a lot to learn
How to expand on the brand is my top concern
What's overstanding never stated so I watch my words
You get what you negotiate and not deserve
This road was always rocky, I hit pots and swerve
Lost grip of the steering wheel but then I caught my turn
Nay rapping like Foxy when she got with the firm
So there can never be a conflict bout the price she earned
Couple business counts, got the LLC
We workin, we stretch the network
Nobody works for free,
Went corporate But I'm applying lessons, hollering from the streets
Keep cash stashed for a rainy day emergency
Said too many farewells, I done seen it all but a jail cell
They call me Ave because I know that real well
Watch niggas blame the city's love when they plans fell
They took the elevator up and not the stairwells
Yo, nigga don't be good, be great Don't aspire to be like us, nigga aspire to
Be like you Cause there'll never be another me again
Yo, you should know it's getting crunchy when we go dark
Beefing with niggas I looked up to had me thrown off
My man killed my other man, that was his road dog
My other homie on the run, he send me postcards
And we got guns too, we just don't post dogs
Remember we was selling crack at a low cost
The fiends they was hustling too, they tried to low ball us
We don't know no lawyers, we don't know no doctors
Everybody sold prescriptions, we ain't know those options
I was a victim to the block and that shit held me hostage
My pops battled with addiction but that helped my pockets
And having money in my pockets, that shit helped my confidence
Without a dollar to your name, how you feel accomplished?
One thing I learned about problems
Is they come with knowledge
I watched dudes hit the feds, see what they got in common
With niggas they was trying to offer,
Now they altered karma
