lyrics
(Verse:)
Check the rhythm I work
We was born to get hurt
I ain't trippin' cuz we end in the dirt
You know that this is all different, y'all livin' it first
I'm talkin' history, chivalry...open the hearse (yeah)
Want to know, I got the dope...unstoppable
Saint, top block, couple o's...don't chop it though
Tryna make it rain on my whip just to wash it all
Probably only make it Semi-Pro, least we tropical
Fear my soul never trust a bank
And if you hear those notes then go rush The State
My own father was a gardener, never fucked with snakes
I'll probably turn into a problem for your rush to fame, but I
I don't switch it up for no hoe, I been about it
And i really give a fuck what they wrote, I'm filled with doubt
And everybody gettin' stuck in mold, I'm breakin' out of it
Two-tone color my gold...I'm jumpin' out the fit!
(Hook:)
I said you gotta get up!
I feel that it all I know (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I said you gotta get up!
And realize you not alone (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I said you gotta get up!
I know that you'll make it home (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I said you gotta get up! Get up! Get up! Get up!
And realize you not alone, yeah!
(Verse:)
Been spittin'...been my mission through all the sniffin'
Can't kill him, the motherfu**** is too ambitious
Through the trenches, tunnel vision to competition
Whole squad willing to kill the villain in any minute
We been through all these problems
But I can't fault these motherfu***** who really tryna solve them
Haters gon' be begging for that presidential pardon
Cuz evidently we just go the hardest
We close to the harvest...authentic shit
We been equipped to bring benefits to whoever never gave up on the kids
Tell them we just want to live
I need a tourniquet for how I'm bout to murder this
Show them we deserve to win
Heard a bitch say she gon' turn me in
I'm facing back to back to back battles like a tournament
Really raw, burning sticks, top shelf, pour a fifth
Keep on creeping until the top where my family sits!
(Hook:)
I said you gotta get up!
I feel that it all I know (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I said you gotta get up!
And realize you not alone (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I said you gotta get up!
I know that you'll make it home (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I said you gotta get up! Get up! Get up! Get up!
And realize you not alone, yeah!
