Rivers
Lyrics
I been swimming through the rivers
When life done knocked me down
My conscious telling me to get up
The name that's own my back shit
No choice I gotta live up
Treat my homies like they blood
Cuz there ain't nobody realer
And nigga I can feel it
Gotta count these millions
I done did the dash
But I never got a ticket
Even when I'm on my last
I'll be the first who go get it
These niggaz know what's up when you really from them trenches
When you really from them
Talk to gutters we know each other
Remember phone calls with my brother we venting struggle
Thinking is we cursed it's like the worst come with any trouble
A nigga been at first I gotta hit me a triple double
Walking through the valley of the shadow of death
These angels testing me
Take away the money & fame and see what's left of me
I knew that they would step to me
At times I feel a vacancy
If they could see what I could see
You'll know I give the best of me
No motive ain't no recipe
No overnight celebrities
A real one I am blessed to be
God lead me to my destiny
Used to think that it was hate
It turned out to be jealousy
Rest In Peace to Tim
I pray his daughter live his legacy
Never popped a pill but I treat music like it's ecstasy
Sharks up in the water so you gotta tread it carefully
Chip is on my shoulder so my motion aint so steadily
Flesh will die & rot away but my spirit heavenly
I been swimming through the rivers
When life done knocked me down
My conscious telling me to get up
The name that's own my back shit
No choice I gotta live up
Treat my homies like they blood
Cuz there ain't nobody realer
And nigga I can feel it
Gotta count these millions
I done did the dash
But I never got a ticket
Even when I'm on my last
I'll be the first who go get it
These niggaz know what's up when you really from them trenches
When you really from them
Grinding from my last
I'ma show my momma she aint got to worry bout the past
If I ever gotta spin the block I bet we do the dash
Drop the whip and then I hop inside and postin up
And when it come to poppin I dont see nobody close as us
I'm close enough so open up
I had to get my focus up
They plottin so I broke em up
They want the smoke and choking up
I shut em down and close em up
I'm icy bitch I froze em up
I'm eating shit its bussin out my gut and niggaz stuffin up
And I been eating every day
Cuz momma always make a plate
And momma always make it shake
So you know I'ma make a way
And every time a nigga win the team just gotta celebrate
And never put your head down
Cuz we go see them better days
Forever days
I can't forget my partners
I told them boys I got em
To be honest know they watching
And I can never let you niggaz knock me off my island
No I can never let you niggaz knowck me off my island
Know them niggaz watching
I been swimming through the rivers
When life done knocked me down
My conscious telling me to get up
The name that's own my back shit
No choice I gotta live up
Treat my homies like they blood
Cuz there ain't nobody realer
And nigga I can feel it
Gotta count these millions
I done did the dash
But I never got a ticket
Even when I'm on my last
I'll be the first who go get it
These niggaz know what's up when you really from them trenches
When you really from them
I been swimming through the rivers
When life done knocked me down
My conscious telling me to get up
The name that's own my back shit
No choice I gotta live up
Treat my homies like they blood
Cuz there ain't nobody realer
And nigga I can feel it
Gotta count these millions
I done did the dash
But I never got a ticket
Even when I'm on my last
I'll be the first who go get it
These niggaz know what's up when you really from them trenches
