The Come Up

This is the come up
Grinding for the ones that I love

Fueled by the passion and pain
And all the bullshit Ive been through

Still I hold my head up high
And all them roadblocks I walk right through
Grinding for the ones that I love
I do it for the ones like me
And all people whos just like you
No matter what they say about me
Imma do whatever I gotta do

This is the come up
Where niggas hustle from night to sun up
The gutta where niggas run up and they get done up
And mama tryna make a dollar for son and daughter
Where them times are even harder without a father
Want a job but never bother
All about them commas bigger diamonds and high designer
With all the finest women goddess

With perfect bodies that we admire
This is the come up where niggas do whatever for money
Theyll murk a nigga now and got to church on a sunday
Probably snitch on homeboys and take a flight out of country
Its f**ked up the motive is to get out the hood
Get your mama new crib keep your family good
When that money is pouring and them jewels is shining
And them cars are foreign them haters praying it storm
Its no love it aint a place for the weak
Only strong survive only hustlers ride
This is the come up
Grinding for the ones that I love
Fueled by the passion and pain
And all the bullshit Ive been through

Still I hold my head up high
And all them roadblocks I walk right through
Grinding for the ones that I love
I do it for the ones like me
And all people whos just like you
No matter what they say about me
Imma do whatever I gotta do

Where niggas hustle from night to sun up
And dreams are never seen cos they dont believe
And it seems you cant achieve
By any means go and get it
And it aint division anything you wishin you could live it
Just better witness they said I wouldnt and I did it
What God intended from being labeled as a menace to counting millions

My daughter smiling every minute I mean attendance
Oh Lord I got my deal in the field crying hundreds of tears
Feeling like that dope boy hit a lick for a mill
Ridin round with the work know them weapons concealed

If the feds ever catch him need them 200 hundred years for that dough
And I know money come money go
And the fame and the game
All the hate that it brings
Man I lost some game
Never changed not me
Gotta survive everyday know every morning I wake Im tryin to come up
Grinding for the ones that I love
Fueled by the passion and pain
And all the bullshit Ive been through
Still I hold my head up high
And all them roadblocks I walk right through
Grinding for the ones that I love
I do it for the ones like me
And all people whos just like you
No matter what they say about me
Imma do whatever I gotta do

This is the come up
So dont you dare give up

Keep your head above the clouds
And your eyes on the prize
Dont you dare give up
This is for the grind
Grinding for the ones that I love
Fueled by the passion and pain
And all the bullshit Ive been through
Still I hold my head up high
And all them roadblocks I walk right through
Grinding for the ones that I love
I do it for the ones like me
And all people whos just like you

No matter what they say about me
Imma do whatever I gotta do
This is the come up
One day you gon make it out the struggle
Dont you worry now now now
My brothers and my sisters
Mama too
This is the come up
