Elzhi - Down Payment lyrics

[Verse 1: Stik Figa] It's Stik Figa mayne, yeah I'm clearing it up Had to give it to them straight, they don't hear it enough It's all bad for these the s**ers, ain't no cheering them up A bunch of curious thugs dripping their period blood Prefer fear over love when really we big winners Ain't a dollar to my name, willing to split dinners Be it, lobster champagne, dollar menus or chicken tenders Ride till the wheels fall or we off in the Earth's center And I don't dis n***as, instead, I dismember Discharge this weapon, disfigure, dissenters Get with that or get with this, get with the big picture Don't stop, don't quit until we get to the six figures Mess around and get injured, considered dirty and dingy And when I kick a verse it's worth every penny So reach into your purse whether major or indie Everybody ain't gonna love me, they won't get me, but look [Chorus: Stik Figa] I'm just trying to tell them what I know Tell them where I been, tell them where I'm trying to go Man look, I'm just trying to tell them what I know Tell them where I been, tell them where I'm trying to go When there's money to make, yeah, there's money to get Money to take, yeah there's money to flip Gotta take a risk scared money don't win Trying to get the quiet money so stop running your lips [Verse 2: Elzhi] Money didn't change me, neither success, only the fake friends That quick to toot their own horns, I'd rather make bands That's music to my ears for years ending on a sour note Like off-key lime powder that's awfully prime time Push down your throat, so you can get a taste of what I been through Biting through the tune no fact or act to Pretend you were in my New Balances while experiencing verticle Way above your head 'cause your ankles were angled vertical When you see where the scandal at but What if you couldn't put your finger on how things got out of hand how could you handle that? Hater that could make a waiter bend a spoon at lunch while you shoot for the stars but put a crater in the moon, damn Wish I could say that I was aiming high at my lowest point To when I fell short I had to blow this joint Or similar to liquor just to feel buzzworthy All because ever bar that's been thrown at me was curvy [Chorus: Stik Figa] I'm just trying to tell them what I know Tell them where I been, tell them where I'm trying to go Man look, I'm just trying to tell them what I know Tell them where I been, tell them where I'm trying to go When there's money to make, yeah, there's money to get Money to take, yeah there's money to flip Gotta take a risk scared money don't win Trying to get the quiet money so stop running your lips [Verse 3: Stik Figa] You see as time goes on it seems that I'm less eager Guess experience is really the best teacher They say time's money, but you ain't invest either So I had to go get it, can't wait on the Tech feature Never had a lot, I never got a lot to lose Everybody thirsty and really they ain't got the juice And everyone an expert but really they ain't got a clue I'm nothing like 'Pac, I'm probably more like Posdnuos Struck gold, I don't know if I'm getting close Play position was never fitting into a role One of one, maybe one day you get a clone Just know that eagles don't fit in pigeon holes Eat crow I never rode on a coat tail And watch close they, really hope that your boy fail I been dope, they been lame so 'oh well' And hope floats so f** fame, that boat sailed [Chorus: Stik Figa] I'm just trying to tell them what I know Tell them where I been, tell them where I'm trying to go Man look, I'm just trying to tell them what I know Tell them where I been, tell them where I'm trying to go When there's money to make, yeah, there's money to get Money to take, yeah there's money to flip Gotta take a risk scared money don't win Trying to get the quiet money so stop running your lips
