Aftershock
Lyrics
MTM, hit 'em with the heat
Been below the average, still, I walk tall
96 Deville, feelin like the hero of the hood
I never meant to be but I became
I'm a Florida boy that couldn't afford a Ford
At the corner store with five of my homies
With the Glock inside my jacket make a racket
Tryna' sell a sack so I can get a hatchback
Coppa pull me over that's a setback
It ain't nothing that I can bounce back from
They love my style, they love the way that I'd been using my tongue, but hey
How you hate somebody puttin' on for your city
I got a thousand enemies and yet they all wanna rip me
But even if you kill me I will never die my words will live forever
I thought this money was suppose to make my life look better
But now this money got me dancing, dancing with the devil
Heavy metal, got my pants sagging like a 90's rebel
I can never settle, I need my settlements lately
Been around the world but Miami is where my grave be
Take my life away and let me die where I reside
I'm a Florida boy forever, my city immortalized
Everybody wanna be around me cause I'm hot, yah
Watch me drop the top like an aftershock, yuh
Take my life away and let me die where I reside
I'm a Florida boy forever, my city immortalized
Everybody wanna be around me cause I'm hot, yah
Watch me drop the top like an aftershock
Shake hands with the right but on the left, I got the Nina
Serena could a served you rappers better than me either
Took a gamble with my life I spent my money on a chain
Threw it all away to run away from all the pain
You was a rat from the beginning tryna' play me like a bitch
I guess that come with the game
The pros and cons of getting rich
Real recognize fake see it in yo face
You hanging around my nuts to get a taste
Baby let me tell you something
Most these rappers get they mans in they pocket
Locked up two or three-six-o
Sold your soul for an all gold rope wrapped around your throat
And now you walking around the city like you runnin' the show
But I know you got yourself into something hard to get out
Especially when half the world got your name in their mouth
You feel the pressure on your spine, cripple up your mind
Diamond in the rough, waiting to be mined
Take my life away and let me die where I reside
I'm a Florida boy forever, my city immortalized
Everybody wanna be around me cause I'm hot, yah
Watch me drop the top like an aftershock
Take my life away and let me die where I reside
I'm a Florida boy forever, my city immortalized
Everybody wanna be around me cause I'm hot, yah
Watch me drop the top like an aftershock
