gramatik - year of rat lyrics
[intro]
yo experience life as i know it, uh, step in my shoes
[verse 1]
i wake up to alarm in the morning
today i’m into makin’ moves ayo i’m all in
my break is fast and what is more it’s poor
i eat it as i listen to cormega and i’m out the door
i catch a bus jumpin’ turnstyle take a seat
in the back o’ the bus the cuts in the breakbeat
in my iriver as we pull up to the subway
i jump a turnstyle again, hop a train
the underground is packed and the rats dwell the tunnels
i’m out in the downtown peddeling the bundles
a 19 y.o. with my mind wrecked
i got the knack of telling a speed user from pot heads
the winter sun is bright but its not warm in it
it’s cold in the streets so i freeze for a minute
use it to recover my breath, ain’t nuttin’ left
for me but to keep on hustling
[verse 2]
the ringtone on my celular is nas
switching sim cards for a dealer is a must
i get a call from one my girls uptown
i know we ain’t seen in a while but honey not now
i’m headed north to the block where my poppa work
45 minutes on the train for the child support
we have a chat though we distant we still blood
he’s like “you plan to have a job?” i’m like nah
i cop a burger at a fastfood
we call it mcf-ck ‘cus you know it ain’t good
calories i dont count cus i stay fit
sweating all day except for the time i sleep
it’s half past five and i still got jobs to do
take a min out to stop to look
at a cute face honey with her behinds enticing
and i’m going back to hustling
[verse 3]
i’m in a rat race through the year of rat
losing homeboys gave me the fear of death
i rush to my block ‘cus it’s 8 o’clock
my partners cook speed i got weigh to cop, ugh
and so i try to catch a cab
but it seems like n0body wanna drive to where i’m living at
so i double the pay and jump in the front seat
looking back at my day things that i done did
i’m at the place where they produce the product
some are in it ‘cus they want it but i’m in it ‘cus i gotta
and plus the dope is a kind of a big hit
‘cus getting used to it is real quick
there are a lot of newbies and a lot of the are frantic
about the do they ’bout to make it’s similar to epidemic
with a lotta rivals up in the biz
when the five-o catch ’em they usually turn snitch
this sh-t is usual type ‘o sh-t on my block
telling is in the air all around the clock
sh-t get critical – none is to be trusted
tomorrow i’ll be back at hustling
