Str8 Like Dat Lyrics

Yeah, middle fingers to my foes, straight like that (yeah)
This the truest story every told, straight like that, uh (straight)
On my phone we speakin' codes, straight like that (prr)
This the shit that keep them on they toes, straight like that (blep, blep)
How many niggas reach they goals? Straight like that (hey)
How many niggas fold it, so they told, straight like that
Cut you off, you had to go, straight like that (huh)
I just need some space for me to grow, straight like that
If it's fuck me, then it's fuck you, straight like that (blep, blep)
You ain't hard to find, for me to touch you, straight like that (ah)
Had to grind, had to hustle, straight like that (yeah)
Gained a piece of mind from the struggle, straight like that
Multi-platinum sellin' millionaire, straight like that (blep, blep)
Those you think I owe 'em wasn't there, straight like that
A couple dollas in the prayers, straight like that (woah)
Ain't a single nigga that I fear, straight like that
Yeah, I done shed a couple tears, straight like that (hey)
Pourin' liquor for those who ain't here, straight like that
Since you gon' make me disappear, straight like that (yeah)
Then you gon' have to prove it, that's a dare, straight like

You weren't afraid of them runnin' it (huh)
Give it the way that you wanted it (hah)
I never knew what the money would do (grrah-grrah)
If I knew then I wouldn't want none of it (yah-yah)
Niggas I thought I was cool with is schemin'
But they wanna dap me in public
I'm startin' to think that I'm numb to it
I wear my heart on my sleeve, but decided to cover it (rah)
Wonder how crazy my son would get
I wrote a book, but then buried it, covered it
Hope that he'd never discover it
Wonder if he only knew all the shit that the other kids
I gotta put me in front of it (hey)
I want it all and they only want some of it
I think I need me a ton of it
They want to drama until I decided to come

Straight like that, straight like that, straight like that, straight
Straight like that, straight like that, straight like that, straight

Yeah, look, sober minds is my regime, straight like that (woah)
I don't do no drugs or sip no lean, straight like that, yeah (skkrt)
Crack turned my cousin to a fiend, straight like that (fact)
I just hope that one day he might get clean, straight like that
Pop this shit, I'll make a scene, straight like that (pop)
I might take this shit to the extreme, straight like that (crack)
Twenty-nine bitch that's my team, straight like that
If they don't buy my shit then they gon' scream, straight like that (hah)
New bitch in my crib I might just dick her, straight like that (stripper)
I just flip her over, I don't kiss her, straight like that
I ain't fallin' for no stripper, straight like that (never)
I said fuck the labels and then got richer, straight like that
Used to struggle now we icey, straight like that (icey)
Hope my daughter don't be knowin' a guy like me, straight like that
If she do, he gotta fight me, straight like that
Someone gotta pay as shit get pricey, straight like that

Hop in the foreign, I'm swervin' it (ah-ah)
They want a dish and I'm servin' it (grrah)
Word to the niggas who thought I was leavin'
I told 'em I'm stayin' it's permanent (blep)
Typical nigga, been hurtin' these women
They feelings, they wasn't deservin' it
I broke their heart and I'm sure of it
I did some damage
I hope that one day I can learn from it (grrah-grrah)
That probably won't be the first of it (damn)
I'm on my journey, I feel like a journalist
Never had many alternatives
Only way out is to murder it, I gotta murder it (ah-ah)
I bet that you'll be observin' it
I'm all the way up and I'm feelin' the turbulence
I need my peace, you disturbin' it
You put some drop up inside my pocket, stop

Straight like that, straight like that, straight like that, straight
Straight like that, straight like that, straight like that, straight
