(feat. Trife Da God)
2
[Chorus: Trife Da God (sample)]
3
We love hip hop, and live a life of crime
4
Felt like I've been robbed, gotta take what's rightfully mine
5
So I'm staying on my job, yo, as far as the grinds
6
Gotta put in that work every day and just (put it on the line)
7
Strong mind still shine, young man in my prime
8
Had to switch it up on 'em, had to change with the times
9
Now the flows upgraded, got the labels in line
10
And sold five, get ya money up bitch (put it on the line)
11
[Trife Da God]
12
You about to read the greatest book ever published
13
The life and times of Trife Diesel, I give my heart to the public
14
Peep how a young boy was discovered, follow me, y'all
15
And bare witness as a nigga touch on these subjects
16
The year was 1980, the summer was hot and hazy
17
Reagan was president, and Nancy was the first lady
18
Born to a Mr. and Mrs. Bailey, a healthy lad
19
Wasn't poor, but, I didn't come from a wealthy pad
20
Moms and dad still married, they both try'nna provide
21
Two brothers and two sisters, I'm the youngest out of five
22
Stapleton's where I reside, the north side of the Island
23
Where try'nna survive was a challenge, my hood was flooded with violence
24
And crack was the new epidemic, and by the early 90's
25
The recall law was passed down by the Senate
26
The Yankees just won a pennant, and Jordan was in his prime
27
Now I'm living this life where I'm forced to (put it on the line)
28
[Chorus]
29
[Trife Da God]
30
I'm on a journey, leaving no stone unturned
31
For your concern brother, I work for all I earn
32
Whether a crib in the p's, or a five mill mansion
33
Showing my ass like a stripper on some high heels dancing
34
Nowadays I'm showing expansion, controlling my team
35
And fuck a but-but, I'm try'nna get ahold of that phantom
36
My pops taught me how to hustle and attend to your ventures
37
Cuz a man is not a man if he ain't got no incentitive
38
Dealing with money, then everything has a percentage
39
Whether street or corporate office, try to keep a good image
40
Note these jewels I had to swallow, them words I still follow
41
Describe all, now me and this music, we such a good combo
42
Every 'morning' like Alonzo, I was serving indiction
43
Getting that money, fam, no matter the weather conditions
44
So I learned that it's better to listen, play your position
45
If you can't take the heat, then stay the hell out the kitchen
46
[Chorus]
