mike lowery – gentrification lyrics
[verse 1: mike lowery]
look, uh, uh
talkin’ big sh+t with n+ggas out in baltimore
f+ck yesterday, today i’m tryna ball tomorrow
i’m always live, controlling my drive like a handlebar
most you n+ggas ain’t gone shine with them cameras off
i left the state of mind, it ain’t no movin’ back
tryna secure the bag, i gotta do this bad
i’m countin’ too much cash, i gotta keep a stash
if them folks lookin’ for me, i’ma do the dash
lovin’ you was the greatest thing i ever did
hope you hold a n+gga down while i do this big
for you and the kid, i go the distance, the realest sh+t
would go to jail and wouldn’t tell to keep you innocent
stashin’ money in the safe just to keep us safe
so much you can do with a day if you don’t wait
doin’ what we gotta do, ain’t the only way
take a swing at the plate while it’s loaded bases
n+ggas was talkin’ all that sh+t like they wanted war
n+gga, i’d take your whole block, even a corner store
and make you n+ggas pay the tab where you sleep at
and aound the corner at your girl crib is where i be at
father forgive me for my sins and my mishaps
gentrification my ass, i’m takin’ sh+t back
gentrification my ass, i’m takin’ sh+t back, n+gga
yeah, yeah
[chorus: mike lowery]
sorry that i couldn’t stay the same way
but somethin’ gotta change if we want it all
i done gave my all, and still it wasn’t enough
i think the hate is startin’ to form when there’s too much love
but somethin’ had to fall, just to keep you up
and i can sacrifice that, even if it’s us
see, it’s beauty in the struggle, i see halle berry
so all this sh+t we goin’ through, i think it’s necessary
[verse 2: mike lowery]
listen, life gon’ be toxic whether you with me or not
but at least i came with love when they dragged you through the mud
at least i’m tryna get it
at least i got a vision
more concerned with the results and not some p+ssy+ass image
it don’t gotta be me using double l c’s to cover the fees
any moves get made, they run it by me
a triple og, but they don’t know me from the streets
i was out here in the matrix tryna set you n+ggas free
but luckily, i just stayed true to n+ggas who f+ck with me
the b+tch claim that she not single but she wilin’ in this doubletree
triple my net+worth by puttin’ myself first
too many prayers to god just hopin’ his help works
see, i need it more than ever
’cause n+gga, it’s now or never
they say the bleedin’ always slows when you apply the pressure
so i applied the pressure
they can’t deny the effort
but it’s like the truth don’t even matter when the lies better
[chorus: mike lowery]
sorry that i couldn’t stay the same way
but somethin’ gotta change if we want it all
i done gave my all, and still it wasn’t enough
i think the hate is startin’ to form when there’s too much love
but somethin’ had to fall, just to keep you up
and i can sacrifice that, even if it’s us
see, it’s beauty in the struggle, i see halle berry
so all this sh+t we goin’ through, i think it’s necessary
[verse 3: big k.r.i.t.]
uh, i went from a bust down bucky to a beamer that’s clean
a hotel filled with roaches to a house for a king
a room barely built for shows, now we sell out the team
them same hoes that wouldn’t f+ck won’t even slide in between
i slide in between, then i back out and i’m back on the scene
you backed the wrong motherf+ckers, now we back for the cream
bubble eye, double+wide, multi to the death
my wrist rep, my meals prepped, you could call me a chef
double eagle, put my people on and all in the mix
from ’05 to ’09 i was as broke as it gets
now f+ck the expense, the tag, and the speed on the dash
the world turned, the green burned, we just puff it and pass
first of my kind, that older said that i was wastin’ my time
the rollie been drippin’, some drip don’t diminish my shine
believe in that there
most hated on me, why would i care?
none could compare
i been through it, i got it from here
krizzle
[chorus: mike lowery]
sorry that i couldn’t stay the same way
but somethin’ gotta change if we want it all
i done gave my all, and still it wasn’t enough
i think the hate is startin’ to form when there’s too much love
but somethin’ had to fall, just to keep you up
and i can sacrifice that, even if it’s us
see, it’s beauty in the struggle, i see halle berry
so all this sh+t we goin’ through, i think it’s necessary
