Nitti - Drought lyrics

[Verse 1: 8Ball] Hard from the start, I ain't never been no f**in' lame One of the best is goody since the first day I tested game With my hand, ink, pen, write down what I'm think-in' Straight from my soul People who get it know where I've been Look at my life, hard times With marijuana make hard rhymes Everybody wanna know where I've been I've been out here on my grind Take a little time, get right Feel like I'm spinning out of control Purple in my cup make the whole world turn slow [Hook 1] God put me here, I'm tryin' to do my best To hold my head up and not be conquered by the stress Late nights, early mornings, tryin' to feed my spirit They make it easy to write it down when you know you live it Yeah, my yesterday is turned to right now Turn the music up and speak it from my heart loud Loud, like yesterday is turned to right now Turn the music up and speak it from my heart loud [Hook 2] Tippin' on my photo, looking out fo' po-po And my ride, thirty nine, a lot of tin fo' show He don't f** the haters rappers Been caught with, they without n******gs, they be scandalous, when streets are goin' through a drought [Hook 3] Yo city's my city, every night the news is Who that k** the corruption and government And I'm supposed to be a role model to the kids But all I'd got for a motherf**er is the truth Yea, all I'd got for a motherf**er is the truth All I'd got for a motherf**er is the truth [Verse 3] Aye, hard from the start, I ain't never been no f**in' lame Streets where I growed up, call them the f**in' blame Why I be how I be when I be so high b Big in all my inner self Givin' you what's inside of me All the pain, all the joy, everything I dream about Put the pain and the joy and everything I sing about All good, most of the time Half of time it ain't though You the man, 8Ball, now it's time for prim row Reinvention my intention it's to get your full attention And I ain't got to hold a gun up to your head to make you listen It's all real, nothing fabricated or made up We real n******gs, we stayed on our knees, prayed up Cuz what that evil do is get you from the inside k** a n***a slow like a grizzly play the French fries Use your mind, don't be blind Common senses take you far And remember everything in the sky is not a star [Hook 2]
