dizzy wright - maintain lyrics

[produced by: dj hoppa]

[verse 1: dizzy wright]
yo, call me a hard workin’ n-gga
i shouldn’t use n-gga cause that’s what was used against us
but still i abuse it and use it, look how they did us
a lot of sh-t’s changed, but something’s installed in us
we can’t figure out, the willie lynch gave them the in and outs
will ’em look who’s doin’ all the f-ckin’ k!llin’ now
we got that after slavery, nothin’ you can say to me
att-tude with malcolm x speakin’ and teachin’ bravery
violence is only needed when you feel defeated
and parents, pay attention, it ain’t cool to raise a demon
that’s on lockdown, got out, and now he actin’ hostile
you threw away your opportunities, n-gga that’s a cop-out
not now, we can argue later, all in favor
raise your hands if you deserve another chance
fan of a fan, we sharin’ the same things
we see the bumps in the road, we smoke and we maintain

[hook: dizzy wright]
so i, play my position with persistence
consistent with the flow, n-gga we twistin’ up the dro
in this life of sin, through the highs and lows
trials and tribulations, you know how it go
i pray you n-ggas maintain
i pray you n-ggas maintain
cause when sh-t gets all bad and you watch the game change
f-ck the bullsh-t, it’s time to maintain
you gotta maintain

[verse 2: dizzy wright]
two hours early, rise and shine
no ride, catchin’ the bus to be on time
no time for excuses, it’s your life, you can’t be stuck on stupid
i give ’em the awkward nod like i can’t be without a job
helpin’ moms with the bombs, i mean the bills
i mean, bombs is how they feel but how i feel don’t stop the build
see when you go without a meal, you stop taking your plate for granted
we was strong when we was weak, that’s why i pray before i eat
it’s bittersweet when it’s something you wanna keep
and if that n-gga don’t wanna help, f-ck it, do it by yourself
but put in effort to better your situation
if not for y’all, then do it for the baby, the system crazy
whether you got you a son or you a daughter
don’t run away from your problems or your partner, maintain
i know it’s getting hard, but it gets harder
you gotta understand, that’s the sh-t that makes you a man

[verse 3: joey bada$$]
gladly, threw the snappy on my nappy
and the razor where it aches in case a n-gga try to clap me
i ain’t a k!lla but for skrilla it gets nasty
pop up on the wrong night, get popped like mad acne
it ain’t no comin’ home for you homie
it’s funny, f-ckin’ with these rhymes over time’ll turn you phony
see n-ggas makin’ money becomin’ dealers
deal a pound to squealers, then give the beats out until he dilla
it gets more realer, for real, n-ggas’ll take your
life, and won’t even get life for the steal
and if you grill, your grill gets foreman’d, blow out your funds
then leave it as a warnin’ for informants out front like a doorman
ain’t kiddin’, can’t take the heat, get out the kitchen
it’s things for soft guys like you, like knittin’ mittens
kissin’ kittens, st-tchin’ snitches, whisperin’
disses, steady wish you had my b-tches and my riches
punk n-ggas

[outro: joey bada$$ & (dizzy wright)]
p-ss the herb, p-ss the herb
(p-ss the herb)
p-ss the herb, p-ss the herb
(p-ss the herb)
p-ss the herb, p-ss the word
(i got the word for the game, n-ggas better maintain)
p-ss the herb, p-ss the herb
(p-ss the herb)
p-ss the herb, p-ss the herb
(p-ss the herb)
p-ss the herb, p-ss the word
(i got the word for the game, n-ggas better maintain)
