Fivio Foreign - Can't Be Us Lyrics

I want you to feel this shit
It's me
Fivi
Uh

Look, I stood at home fightin' my demons alone but prayin'
(Huh, watchin' how the gangstas do it)
I stood alone, watchin' the wars in my zone, now I'm on
('Cause that's just how the gangstas do it)
Oh, I'm runnin' (uh)
The devil took everything he wanted (uh)
Ten toes down, I been a hunnid, uh
And every bag I get, I'm gon' run it
Look, 'cause I been drippin', and ballin', I can't give up
No I ain't slippin' or fallin', that can't be us (nah)
Nah, that can't be us
Nah, that can't be us (huh)

God sent signs and I read 'em (uh)
'Cause they can't do nothin' to you unless you let 'em (uh)
Huh, you 'posed to give 'em one chance and then dead 'em (uh)
Huh, shit, I gave 'em like seven (yeah)
Shit, I thought they was my bredrin (bredrin)
Destined (destined)
They was in my heart but I cured that infection (uh)
I could've lost it all when a nigga got arrested (yeah)
That's why I thank God for these awards and these blessings (yeah)
They wanna rap too 'cause they see how rap changed my life
But lightnin' never strike in the same spot twice
Can I live? (Can I live?)
They said I couldn't do it, and I did (and I did)
Bitch, I'm the same Fivio Foreign since a kid (bitch)
Bitch, I'm the same Fivio Foreign since the crib
I started shinin' and them niggas stopped comin' to my vids
I remember, nigga (I remember, nigga)
Nigga (nigga)
Them niggas know what it is (uh)

I stood at home fightin' my demons alone but prayin'
(Huh, watchin' how the gangstas do it)
I stood alone, watchin' the wars in my zone, now I'm on
('Cause that's just how the gangstas do it)
Oh, I'm runnin' (uh)
The devil took everything he wanted (uh)
Ten toes down, I been a hunnid, uh
And every bag I get, I'm gon' run it
Look, 'cause I been drippin', and ballin', I can't give up
No I ain't slippin' or fallin', that can't be us (nah)
Nah, that can't be us (nah)
Nah, that can't be us, huh (yeah)

Let me tell you what's emotional (uh)
That they can only touch you if they close to you (uh)
I'm a million dollar man, nigga
Look at what these vocals do (yeah)
The first time you ever said my name, I was over you (ha)
R.I.P. Lakeema, R.I.P. Yvette
I was raised by a angel, I was taught by the best (uh)
And when Bing went to war, they almost shot him to death
And he laid in my door, on the floor, by the step
This is real, nigga (this is real, nigga)
I thank God for all my real niggas (yeah)
I pray that God give me strength so I can deal with 'em
I don't know who gon' backdoor, so I don't feel niggas
But I done been through so much pain, I start to heal quicker (uh)
I know they mad over the 'Gram (yeah)
Nigga, I'm mad that I ever gave you a chance
Yeah, I love this life but I'll choose my family over my fans (any day, nigga)
Nigga, that's what make me a man

I stood at home fightin' my demons alone but prayin'
(Huh, watchin' how the gangstas do it)
I stood alone, watchin' the wars in my zone, now I'm on
('Cause that's just how the gangstas do it)
Oh, I'm runnin' (uh)
The devil took everything he wanted (uh)
Ten toes down, I been a hunnid, uh
And every bag I get, I'm gon' run it
Look, 'cause I been drippin', and ballin', I can't give up
No I ain't slippin' or fallin', that can't be us (nah)
Nah, that can't be us (nah)
Nah, that can't be us, huh

It's like
I can't even express myself to nobody 'cause
I don't know who really care for real
Or who really just care 'cause I'm me
So I keep my feelings to myself, uh
I do this music, though
I need to feed my family, that's the most important part
Yeah, I like inspirin' others
If I did it, you could do it
I came from nothin', uh
I'm the nigga they hated
They hated that I made it
They couldn't stop this shit though
Yeah
