Ain’t Nothin New

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Jadakiss] Seeing if a seven-digit check cleared All in the connect's ear Driving cars that come out next year Block lit, all I did was come out for some fresh air Big chain, nice watch, fresh gear, heck yeah Killers respect killers, soft niggas respect fear Crazy 'cause I love it but I hate it that I rep there Sad part about it is that I made it when I left there Sorry to whoever anticipated my death here You die, they hope, don't sleep, stay woke The more money you get, the more it's your fault they broke Catch a bullet in your culo In the hood that's how they do though 'Cause ain't nothin' new, yo, what?! [Chorus: Ne-Yo] This ain't nothin' new, this ain't nothin' new To nigga like me, man, this what I do And you got lied to if they said this ain't what I do This ain't nothin' new, it ain't nothin' new Nah, but maybe to a nigga like you 'Cause round here man, see, see this an everyday thing No, it ain't nothin' new [Verse 2: Nipsey Hussle] Never turn down when it's on, I'm front line Always respected what's real, I want mine Anytime they shot up the hood was go time Once you start cuttin' in life, you so live If you have some smut on your name, you can't grind Over reputation and pride we gon' die When the police asked for the truth, I told lies And when I finally got in this booth, my soul cried Once you off the stoop it's through, you no child Ain't make no excuse for your youth, or no size See me, I graduated these streets in '05 Still live and die by these rules, you know why? [Chorus: Ne-Yo] This ain't nothin' new, this ain't nothin' new To nigga like me, man, this what I do And you got lied to if they said this ain't what I do This ain't nothin' new, it ain't nothin' new Nah, but maybe to a nigga like you 'Cause round here man, see, see this an everyday thing No, it ain't nothin' new [Verse 3: Jadakiss] HA-HAAAEEH! Nah, the bars are still lethal You ain't the top 'til the stars are underneath you God shuffles the deck, but the cards come from the people Speakin' from a place where the odds are under equal (Y.O.) Yeah, end of discussion Ain't nothin' new, I vocally destroy any production (woo!) Go get your crew, put my prints on the semi, I'm bustin' Grateful, I know the difference between plenty and nothin' I'm on the block, on the crate, sippin' Henny and puffin' And even though it's all love, keep your enemies lustin' Lick a shot off then let two go Let me off the leash, I'm like Koojo This ain't nothin new yo, what?! [Chorus: Ne-Yo] This ain't nothin' new, this ain't nothin' new To nigga like me, man, this what I do And you got lied to if they said this ain't what I do This ain't nothin' new, it ain't nothin' new Nah, but maybe to a nigga like you 'Cause round here man, see, see this an everyday thing No, it ain't nothin' new
