Tides

I done came way to far
 To be here stressing
 Done learned from my mistakes
 Beware of snakes
 And count the blessings
 Tryna dodge the jake
 In the race
 When they stretching
 Gotta make it on my own
 Cause ain't no waiting on the next one
 Homies doing life
 Just heard his wife up and left em
 Bitches playing trife
 Down for life
 Until that sentence
 Bitch gone ride until that bags gone
 Then she gone ditch ya
 Different hoe
 But still that same song
 You get the picture
 Ain't no love in this shit
 No
 They all been switching
 Like they working 9-5s
 Trying make it from the kitchen
 So since like 95
 I ain't payed em no attention
 I'm too busy stuck in drive
 Trying not to pop a piston
 Blame on the lean
 Got these nighas slacking
 To busy floss for these hoes
 Instead of nighas stacking
 Preaching truth
 In the booth
 Er'time im rapping
 100 proof
 And I ain't proving shit to none you bastards
 Fuck ya
 If it going down bet I'm holding mine up
 Forever on the grind
 Hustle till my times up
 Said if it's going down
 Then it's going down
 Coming with a flagrant
 When they playing foul
 If it going down bet I'm holding mine up
 Forever on the grind
 Hustle till my times up
 Said if it's going down
 Then it's going down
 Coming with a flagrant
 When they playing foul
 Told my Nigha hold ya head
 You got too much longer
 We through the struggle
 Been In chains
 The last 20 summers
 This can't be life
 To numb the pain
 I smoke this marijuana
 The facts of life
 Cause of our shade
 Them white folks wont employ us
 Savage like
 Trying get paid but don't end up a gonner
 Trapping nights for them new J's
 But ain't got no diploma's
 Nigha lack
 And I'm ashamed
 Cause I came from them corners
 The fastest course to see a grave
 Or being a organ donor
 Realest Nigha from my city
 I ont need a vouch
 And all this shit you nighas speaking
 Ain't no speech about
 If I ain't got it
 Imma get it
 I ain't reaching out
 They say it's practice what you preach
 But fuck the preachers foul
 In and out
 I stick and move
 Fast rate
 Cause I know nighas tryna see me come last place
 So imma gun this muthfucka till the ass break
 Chasing life
 And being cautious with the handshakes
 If it going down bet I'm holding mine up
 Forever on the grind
 Hustle till my times up
 Said if it's going down
 Then it's going down
 Coming with a flagrant
 When they playing foul
 If it going down bet I'm holding mine up
 Forever on the grind
 Hustle till my times up
 Said if it's going down
 Then it's going down
 Coming with a flagrant
 When they playing foul
