[B. Stille]
2
This is for you, and you, and you, and you
3
[Verse 1 - B. Stille]
4
Now I came up with little bad ass yeagas, to never had ass yeagas
5
Slept and ate with our peeps but we let the streets raise us
6
Kept the weed blazin, don't let the drink age us
7
Used to live outrageous, now we just couch potatoes
8
Without the wages, to break out the project cages
9
Make do with what we got, use the logic that God gave us
10
Losin faith is enough to make a man crazy
11
Can't even pay my landlady
12
How the fuck I'm 'posed to save for my unplanned baby?
13
Joined the Navy, and my uncle sayin "pay me"
14
Maybe I'm just too damn lazy but you can page me
15
Lately, been hustlin grams daily
16
Holdin down my spot on the corner like Champ Bailey
17
But I know I ain't the only one (you feel me?)
18
On the gun livin on the run, look how they done momma's only son
19
X me out like I'm, a Roman numeral
20
Damn, and ain't tryin to see me again, till my funeral
21
[Chorus - Anthony Hamilton]
22
For so long I been grindin (grindin)
23
Paid my dues, put my time in (time in)
24
Even went down for tryin
25
I pushed on
26
Never once did I give up (give up)
27
Every time I fell I would get up (get up)
28
Always kept my spirit up
29
I pushed on
30
[Verse 2 - Scales]
31
Now we finally feelin plush
32
Doin gotta do to keep our nails airbrushed
33
Jade straight out the box, damn ne'er been touched
34
Damn I'm feelin good, be lined me up
35
Till we never seen a Pontiac diamond-toed
36
Nappy Roots, what it mean to ya? Mines and us
37
And don't be callin us slow, we ain't grind it up
38
Now my people all smiles cause we out the slums
39
Sayin, "Look at Big Bud ol' sloppy drunk
40
I remember when he sold tapes out the trunk"
41
Now here's the routine - jump out the truck, T-shirt and blue jeans
42
'94 Jays with the blue shoe strings
43
When I first hit the grind ain't stop for shit
44
And my only motivation was a pot to piss
45
See it hit me so hard ain't have a penny to myself
46
I swallowed up my pride and asked Skinny for some help
47
And I'm sayin
48
[Chorus]
49
[Verse 3 - Big V]
50
Want me to stop, I did, but I couldn't stop the shit
51
Dawg I cried for this, stole and lied for this
52
Scream when I felt this shit
53
Toured for 16 months straight, lost breath for this
54
Heh, yelled for this
55
Sinnin every night, know I'm goin to hell for this
56
The hurt and the betrayal, compelled by this
57
Tough wall to climb but Nappy Roots scaled the shit
58
Just don't let me rap in vain, people pray over this
59
Don't take my word for it, see for yourself and shit
60
Everybody out in the wind, ain't no help with this
61
I coulda thrown in the towel, coulda walked away
62
Eyes on the prize, so I'm strong today
63
Simply want it, believe it, think it, breathe it
64
Chase it, cease it, maintain, keep it
65
Hold it, control it, never let go of it
66
Hold on, press on, push on, I'm gone
67
[Chorus 2X]
68
[Anthony Hamilton]
69
For so long
70
Paid my dues
71
Now IIIIIII (I pushed on)
72
Alright, give up (I pushed on)
73
I never have
74
Kept on
75
Ohhhhh, ooooohhhh
