big hoodoo - against the grain lyrics
[chorus: big hoodoo]
i hadn’t seen the sunshine, i hadn’t seen the rain
with the many good times that [?] pain
too many of my homies died, wish that i could say
for every one that crossed me, it’ll never be the same
they know who they are, i’ll never drop a name
just know that what you did got me where i’m at today
learned a lot of lessons, [?] a lot of game
now they all respectin’ how i moved against the grain
[verse 1: big hoodoo & violent j]
even through the hate and the despise, we still hittin’
not surе how we made it, but like nas, it was writtеn
overcame the odds stacked against me from the beginning
so many homies died in this trap we call the mitten
kept faith in my path, and y’all laughed at my vision
not knowing that my destiny was gassed by my ambition
not showing cast the prophecies, an everlasting mission
not going off of what y’all see, but take a chance to listen
that someone built a legacy that ain’t no one forgettin’ (tell them)
kept growin’ off my clarity and made it a religion (clear)
so these devils, ain’t no scarin’ me, they only competition (yeah)
all these levels just preparing me, i learn through repetition (yeah)
holdin’ my position, representin’ friends that’s missin’ (for you)
i do it for my kids and all my hustlers in the kitchen ([?])
and homies doin’ life in prison, names i can’t mention (who?)
just know i love you all for helpin’ (woo) dreams come to fruition
[chorus: big hoodoo]
i hadn’t seen the sunshine, i hadn’t seen the rain
with the many good times that [?] pain
too many of my homies died, wish that i could say
for every one that crossed me, it’ll never be the same
they know who they are, i’ll never drop a name
just know that what you did got me where i’m at today
learned a lot of lessons, [?] a lot of game
now they all respectin’ how i moved against the grain
[verse 2: sh+ggy 2 dope]
sh+t on, spit on, same old song (yup)
kicked in the ass, told to get on (oh)
been wrong (uh huh), kurt russel (whoa), goldie hawn (what)
been pushed overboard, i know what’s goin’ on (uh)
you afraid of what you do, now no one understands (yeah)
sh+t keep comin’ out your mouth, you taste the back of my hand
kablam (ooh), can’t stand, i’m here, you ran (b+tch)
your program, simple, all b+tch, no man (nope)
but yet, you still busy looking down your nose on us (uh)
but yet, i get get busy looking down this barrel and bust (bam)
splinters, rough edges, against the grain (yup)
we k!llin’ the game while remainin’ the same (now)
sell out (no), never (no), for no thing (no), no cheddar (no)
f+ck jeremy, sh+ggy spoken, eddie vedder
you a simp, a lame, a square charity case
you got a d+ck in your booty (look), i got the sun in my face (yeah)
[chorus: big hoodoo]
i hadn’t seen the sunshine, i hadn’t seen the rain
with the many good times that [?] pain
too many of my homies died, wish that i could say
for every one that crossed me, it’ll never be the same
they know who they are, i’ll never drop a name
just know that what you did got me where i’m at today
learned a lot of lessons, [?] a lot of game
now they all respectin’ how i moved against the grain
[verse 3: violent j]
i’m pushin’ nine+o, wrong side of the expressway
in a blindfold, bumping h+ll’s pit on press play
when i go, i’ll be free, f+ck what the rest say
my life cold, i stay freezing on my best day
f+ck class, next day, bust ass, less pay
brushed pass, check’s day, dust fast, head’s gray
nest egg, nonexistent at this instant
’cause every cent tooken and your income been spent
like me, you been sent against the grain
enhance the rain, hence the pain (d+mn)
and since you’re lame, that shows you couldn’t do it (no?)
but like a face to a train, i blows right through it, puddin’
if it’s cold, then get used to it (uh huh)
get that triple fat goose, hit the juice, and put the boots to it (ah)
it takes a real one to shine the same
while runnin’ with the hatchet, against the grain
[chorus: big hoodoo]
i hadn’t seen the sunshine, i hadn’t seen the rain
with the many good times that [?] pain
too many of my homies died, wish that i could say
for every one that crossed me, it’ll never be the same
they know who they are, i’ll never drop a name
just know that what you did got me where i’m at today
learned a lot of lessons, [?] a lot of game
now they all respectin’ how i moved against the grain
i hadn’t seen the sunshine, i hadn’t seen the rain
with the many good times that [?] pain
too many of my homies died, wish that i could say
for every one that crossed me, it’ll never be the same
they know who they are, i’ll never drop a name
just know that what you did got me where i’m at today
learned a lot of lessons, [?] a lot of game
now they all respectin’ how i moved against the grain
