Lyrics

[Intro: Sheek Louch]: Ha, this shit knockin'! Mega, what up, nigga? Woo! It's that fly shit right here Sheek Louch, I got you, God Don Gorilla shit, D-Block, ayo (D-BLOCK!) [Verse 1: Sheek Louch]: We was baggin' up cracks when niggas was watchin' Betamax (Uhuh) Shorty head on my lap, smokin' tryna relax (Uhuh) Way before the tracks and all the Bad Boy plaques Some niggas passed away, couple homies in a max (Damn) Trump, I been knew he wasn't fuckin' with us blacks (Uhuh) Pull up on 5th Ave. and let a fuck up sacks (Damn, nigga) Brown licker in the crystal glass 50,000 on my wrist, my little shooter pull that pistol fast (Shoot outside) Razor cuts wrapped around a nigga face and shit (Hold that) Staples, tongue gone ain't taste the shit (Woo!) For the fame these IG rappers chasin' it I came in though, nigga, ask Ma$e and shit (Uhuh) I'vе seen the quality of Hip Hop drop (For real) You ain't evеn gotta rap, just mumble somethin', and you gon' pop (So sick) Silverback Gorilla, I put one in yo' hat From Yonkers to Queens, nigga, what's fuckin' wit' that? (Uhh!) [Chorus: Cormega x2]: We were taught never sleep yet we followed our dreams Failure ain't a option indeed Real recognize real, we did hard on the street Say less, listen more, that's how you succeed [Verse 2: Cormega]: Up early acceptin' the blessin' of life My adjustment from streets to makin' records is progression From adolescence to a man predestined to be tested He channeled out aggression in a manner that's poetic For all my peoples sentenced behind the wall stressin' Moral indiscretions hopin' your cores accepted The belly of the beast says it's deep fall from Heaven Freeze [?], Lord, I will breathe laws forever Love is blind yet I see false affection As a character floor, I detour deception Art imitates life, these bars should mirror Something great, MEGA the definition apparent The worst days are measures of strength being tested Temptations of weakness with faith it's a present Pain and regret can't be greater than the pleasure Success at anyone's expenses of failure [Chorus: Cormega x2]: We were taught never sleep yet we followed our dreams Failure ain't a option indeed Real recognize real, we did hard on the street Say less, listen more, that's how you succeed
