Lyrics

[Intro: Nipsey Hussle] Yeah You don't know who swimmin' naked 'til the tide come in Mustard on the beat, ho [Chorus: Nipsey Hussle] Fuck where your hoes at or where your Rolls at Where your backbone, nigga, where your code at? Where your down since day one real bros at? Where them stories that you tellin' unfold at? Where your heart, nigga? Where your soul at? We got old school ways, we expose that Ain't no guarantees, but you know that Niggas die every day, can't control that [Verse: Nipsey Hussle] Ken Griffey throwback, nigga had to go left Must've popped twenty-eight times, 'cause it's four left If it's 'bout mine, ain't a nigga that I won't check Run through your hardest homeboy, you could go next '85 Cut', dawg, Hussle had the Rolex Chain on my white tee, now you see the progress Stacked every chip on myself, time to collect All money in, just imagine what I gross back [Chorus: Nipsey Hussle] Fuck where your hoes at or where your Rolls at Where your backbone, nigga, where your code at? Where your down since day one real bros at? Where them stories that you tellin' unfold at? Where your heart, nigga? Where your soul at? We got old school ways, we expose that Ain't no guarantees, but you know that Niggas die every day, can't control that [Interlude: Nipsey Hussle] That's why I called my thing The Marathon (Yeah) 'Cause I, I'm not gon' lie and portray, um, this ultimate poise Like I been had it figured out Nah, I just didn't quit That's the only distinguishing quality From me and probably whoever else is goin' through this Went through this, or is gonna go through this Is that I ain't quit I went through every emotion I went through every emotion with tryna pursue what I'm doing You know what I mean? (Mhm) And I think that what, what's gon' separate whoever's gon' try to go for something is that, you ain't gon' quit That's, you know, you really gon' take the stance of I'm gon' die behind what I'm gettin' at right here [Chorus: Nipsey Hussle] Fuck where your hoes at or where your Rolls at Where your backbone, nigga, where your code at? Where your down since day one real bros at? Where them stories that you tellin' unfold at? Where your heart, nigga? Where your soul at? We got old school ways, we expose that Ain't no guarantees, but you know that Niggas die every day, can't control that [Interlude: Nipsey Hussle] I think that our reaction to being disrespected We gotta, we gotta, we have to reassess how we react You know what I mean? I think that, we've been known as, as hip hop, to make songs And that's a part of it And then, we gotta, we gotta go a step further because I think that It's like a disease in a body Once you start givin' it a treatment it'll get immune to the treatment (Mhm) And you gotta try something else to kill that disease So, I think protest music is important I think that YG was a genius [Chorus: Nipsey Hussle] Fuck where your hoes at or where your Rolls at Where your backbone, nigga, where your code at? Where your down since day one real bros at? Where them stories that you tellin' unfold at? Where your heart, nigga? Where your soul at? We got old school ways, we expose that Ain't no guarantees, but you know that Niggas die every day, can't control that
