brad hester - 718 lyrics

[chorus]

718 til i’m dead (718)
718 til i’m gone (718)
718 been running through my veins since the day i was born
(the day i was born)
718, 71(8)
718, 71(8)
718, 71(8)
718, 71

[verse 1]

i’ve been between a rock and a hard place for as long as i can remember
iou’s replaced gifts at christmas in december
in the game of life people of color have a tougher time coming out the winner
but i’m wilder than deontay with the hits no worthy contenders
fight for something or die for nothing
718 taught me all i know
paint self portraits of myself
with the pen like i’m vincent van gogh
solo dolo, no really i was so low and dough low
almost stole clothes couldn’t buy polo
almost did showtime on the 4 train and rapped
from 161st past soho
making moves uptown and downtown
rep new york til my whole d-mn town down
i’m better than whoever else out now
dead-ss…whew
i never prayed for a easy life
just for enough strength to run the world with me and mine
guess we’ll see in time mmm

[chorus]

718 til i’m dead (718), 718 til i’m gone (718)
718 been running through my veins since the day i was born (the day i was born)
718, 71(8)
718, 71(8)
718, 71(8)
718, 71(8)
718 til i’m dead (718), 718 til i’m gone (718)
718 been running through my veins since the day i was born (the day i was born)
718, 71(8)
718, 71(8)
718, 71(8)
718, 71(8, 8, 8, 8)

[verse 2]

i went from…boy to the man
a dollar and…dream to my name
they said that i’d…amount to nothang
i’ll prove em wrong…that ain’t no thang
if you wanna stack that cash
boy you better rap that crack
or you better wrap that crack
or die in the trap trap trap
momma this 9 to 5 money too slow
i can barely take care of me with this
going all in with these new flows
turning dreams into reality with this
young boy giving hope to the whole city same way porzingis is
you know im right brother, like the wright brothers
comes a point in life, you gotta wing the sh-t
long days longer nights
future still bright even when they cut the lights
parents always used to fuss and fight
sirens, bullets kept me up at night
718 kept me sane
i found beauty in the struggle
feel like ali in his prime
the way i rumble in the jungle
we dont sugarcoat in these parts
thats just the way the cookie crumbles
dark thoughts cloud my judgement
but i see light at the end of the tunnel
always motivating my circle
like i’m in the middle of a huddle
life done humbled me so much
i can’t ever see myself not being humble formal

[chorus]
