D.Moore - True Stories Part 1: Layer Cake lyrics

On the rise to da top The grind doesn't stop Some only focus on guap #Not me I'm alive cuz I'm not IiiiiiiI've Dodge bullets Took blows to the head Never ran and never will #Nah Unless I'm running from the feds See jail ain't 4 me If that cell's made 4me Then ill pa** on that fiend That sale ain't 4me #Nah And so it begins... The paper chase niga ...the plot thickens #layer cake n***a #Slim biggins! On the road to riches and the finer things in life This ain't a album its a script A theme for life Uh ...There's many layers to this plot as it thickens As I bid farewell to my past #good riddance Many ain't fare well Throughout #failed missions Think it ain't fair well... U gotta #deal wit it! Uh ...My man rocc did 8 But only count The day he went it in And The day he came out ..My n***a Eric spent half his life In and out of jail For *violent crimes Both trynto feed they families And down the line Was singled out by a snitch Compounded by lies N till all my n***as free My team won't b complete Still I don't have a worry While I walk these streets #nah See.. Imma made man An elder statesman Always focused on what's *next Never complacent #Yeah ..I am The blueprint for truth Its my life ur tracing Like that night in (location N/A) When i Had to face d**h #Uh ..Face 2 face Versus 10 hatians N I ain't even start the fight I wasn't on the card that night #nah I was at the bar Trynto get my n***as drinks ..Its was Around my 25th bday I think Early 2000's ..Either way A n***a came out his mouth I had to punch him in his face Now... It be suffice if he pounded me out Instead he picked up 2 bottles They surrounding me now Long story long I Had to stab my way out Climbing over bodies As I found my way out Then it spilled to the street Where police ca see... Jay grabbed the knife Got rid of it cleanly Bottles still flying Most hittin my head I walked away bloody Can't say the same about them Them pigs started swarming Whole sidewalk crowded I ran right pa** them Idk how they allowed it But Word on the street a n***a died that night A son loss a father His momma cried that night But I ain't care none He pushed my bu*tons n I jumped... *n***as need to learn how to act when they drunk But Back to the rumble In regards to my life At a time they almost had me We was fightin for the knife My hands on the handle They was grabbin the blade So who diddnt get stabbed Got cuts on they hand See At that point I already stabbed they mans #Uh uh ...Two to the gut, two to the back His entire f**in army Trying to disarm me Had me Pinned in a corner If they get it I'mma goner As I think back Rewind those events I wouldn't be here Speakin in past tense If I only let go Lost my grip #yup The tables wouldve turned I coulda called it quit Or if one of them was armed They couldve even the odds It woulda been a knife fight I tell u what my life like #mines is real But As God as my witness One reason I'm here yo #Me My words paint pictures The beat is my eas-el ....Da evils 8 * On the rise to da top The grind doesn't stop Some only focus on guap #Not me I'm alive cuz I'm not IiiiiiiI've Dodge bullets Took blows to the head Never ran and never will Unless I'm running from the feds See jail ain't 4 me If that cell's made 4me Then ill pa** on that fiend That sale ain't 4me And so it begins... The paper chase niga The plot thickens #layer cake n***a * On the rise to da top The grind doesn't stop Some only focus on guap #Not me I'm alive cuz I'm not IiiiiiiI've Dodge bullets Took blows to the head Never ran and never will Unless I'm running from the feds See jail ain't 4 me If that cell's made 4me Then ill pa** on that fiend That sale ain't 4me And so it begins...
