Patchwerk Recording Studio, Atlanta, GA - Hip-Hop lyrics

[Verse 1] I came from drop tops and old school Chevy's Dope boys rollin' through, sh**tin' on ya heavy Fifteens in the trunk, beatin' down your block Only 4 years old when Biggie got shot I remember playin' on the block, hangin' on the block Young n***as slangin' on the block, gettin' off them rocks Now we livin' better now, Coogi sweater now Weather still gettin' colder, we could change the weather now, but I [Pre-Hook] Came up in criminal days Livin' these criminal ways, what can I say? Huggin' the block every day Grindin' and making a way At night I pray for better days That it don't be the same tomorrow Now I celebrate my sorrows with this bottle And say [Hook] (Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey) I pray for more better days (Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey) I know that I can feel change (Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey) I pray for more better days (Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey) I know that I can feel change [Verse 2] Everyday ain't good but everyday ain't bad Mama always said, "Show thanks for what you have Boy, never forget to realize you're blessed This cold world can rot you if you let it" Now I'm outchea tryna get it, really outchea tryna get it Always knew that I would make it, maybe it was so prophetic 'Cause I came up from the bottom and the humblest beginnings From the youngest n***a grindin' to the youngest n***a winnin' [Pre-Hook] Still I came up in criminal days Livin' these criminal ways, what can I say? Huggin' the block every day Grindin' and making a way At night I pray for better days That it don't be the same tomorrow Now I celebrate my sorrows with this bottle And say [Hook] (Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey) I pray for more better days (Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey) I know that I can feel change (Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey) I pray for more better days (Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey) I know that I can feel change [Verse 3] 'Fore you die, you make your mark and reach new levels Want the bread, want the diamonds and the bezels And if it's b**hes that you want, have several Just gotta know, lotta sh**'s temporary It won't last, no, no, it won't last, no One minute it's all here, next thing you know it's all gone That's why I been on my grizzy outchea Long as I grind, better days are near [Pre-Hook] Came up in criminal days Livin' these criminal ways, what can I say?
