G-Riot - Young Nation lyrics

[intro: Apollo] Just some young n***as getting high (x5) [verse 1: JAY GXLD] This BK, if you ain't from it you ain't gonna love it We ain't got time for nobody tryna rip the culture The f**ing vultures see us winning, wanna eat up off us Tell them n***as get to stepping, ain't got nothing for 'em I dream of days on the stage, they cheering my name Maybe some fame would help the kid to sell out Barclays I'm thinking big, wonder where Gxld gon' go You know I'm headed for success so this my Pro Bowl flow I got everybody watching, ima put on a show I'm just a youngin from the land of wearing techs in the snow Where my n***as staying lifted always blowing they smoke They tryna get a lil higher to the point where they float And there ain't no problems where I'm tryna go But the weed keep me numb, that's how i know how to cope Look, it's Jay Gxld, not Jay Gold-Plated b**h I'm 24K, there's your reason to hate me Spend my days writing verses, I don't even bump no other sh** This rapping got me stressing, done already rolled a couple spliffs Weighing off the heavy sh**, I'm high off the smell of it Word to STEEZ i hold the Beast down and keep it relevant Never settling for less than 100 percent Saving my bread to get the flawless whip, no dents Tryna make this money without parking lot pimpin' If I tried to push the weight I know my mother would be livid All my peers saying that I'm young, black, and gifted I got a bright future waiting, better not waste it Generation Z is looking up to me and i embrace it #TeamGXLD spread the love, Griot, what you gotta say to this? [Verse 2: Griot] Well sh**, if you ain't say so f**ing much I'd probably have something to add It's cool, I ain't stuck in the past I don't feel nothing but bad Put me in rapper rehab Every beat just make me mad I don't feel nothing but wrath I don't speak for nobody But the verse is so bodied it just speak for everybody I think it's the flow probably Words hit the true blues and suwoops and lives taken too soon As i adjust my mind state to new rules For one i know the battle on d** But the war is on us Know why they use guns? They made us too tough That's why i keep a group of super n***as Down to poof a n***a n***as calling me a ruthless n***a like im Lucius n***a Blow y'all out the water rhyming, y'all some one fish, two fish n***as Stupid n***as [Verse 3: JAY GXLD] Dreams to reality, my hobbies to a salary The goals in Gxld's mind And I see with perfect clarity Don't you ask me why I'm tryna make a masterpiece You think this rapping easy? Try it, let me see you master beats It take some time to get good with the rhymes Put me in the spotlights cause I'm trying to shine I'm tryna be like Nas I wanna make this world mine Brooklyn need a new king, and I guess it's my time
