Believe
I remember bein broke
Talkin bout we gon get this money, gon get this money
Went from ball playin to the mall slanging
CDs of *****s tryna scrape a hundred
Now its a hundred when I get a steak
Need a reservation just to get a plate
With a hoodie, Louis bucket, and slides
********** a button-up and a tie
Black power and Im slanging it wild
Foreign dripping with a ***** on the side
Beastmode, Marshawn with it
Had to step past my haters just to get by
I just touched down
Whippin on the corner with a bag in the trunk
For all my *****s never having enough
Like what the **** is ever having enough?
We gon keep keep baggin it up
We gon keep keep cashin it up
I need this here for the inner city
I need Wakanda in Mississippi
I need to plot it and plan it
A way we could manage to stay out the penitentiary
I need a chopper for all of my partners
Just in case the government try to get me
This is bigger than the color green
This is Denzel in the last scene
Of a Spike Lee joint, Malcolm X story
Necessary by any means
This is a mil on the wheel
I am a four, never pour, never sip
I got a dream
Something like ML the King
Talkin bout every day of the week
Im tryin so hard to believe
Im tryin so hard to believe
Kids dyin but we actin like its a breeze
Struggling, shakin disease
We cant stay down on our knees
Thats what wegood at though, believing
Thats what we good at though, believing
Believing, believing
That what I been saying aint over they heads (Believe)
People dont only give flowers to dead
All the police aint been tryin to kill us (Believe)
All the medicine is bound to heal us
It was really help they tried to give us (Believe)
All this drankin aint gon fail my liver
Ima live to be a father figure (Believe)
Better than my father ever figured
All these rappers really rappin bout it
Really saving people, really giving back (Believe)
All the pastors in the churches talking to the Lord
Tell Him where we at (Believe)
And the water aint pure and aint good for the drinking
Dont fix me a plate if you know I cant eat it
Seeing people dead on TV
And social networks just **** with my thinking
Scared Ill die young with no children to hold (Believe)
No one to leave what I owe
Scared Ill grow old, I might lose who I knew (Believe)
I might forget who I know
Im a product of believe, believe (Believe)
Im living what I was told
What happened to Nip, I just cant believe (Believe)
It takes a believer to know (It takes a believer to know)
It takes a believer to know (It takes a believer to know)
It takes a believer to know (It takes a believer to know)
It takes a believer to know (It takes a believer to know)
It takes a believer to know (It takes a believer to know)
It takes a believer to know (It takes a believer to know)
It takes a believer to know (It takes a believer to know)
It takes a believer to know (It takes a believer to know)
