"Holy Ground (Acoustic)" lyrics

"Holy Ground (Acoustic)"
(feat. Jessie Murph)

[Jessie Murph:]
Life's smoking gun looks dangerous
That's the way it is, that's the way it was
When you learn to run, it was in the mud
It was in the cold, now it's in your blood
I burn from the hell I've seen
But the devil can't hold me down
I've earned all the hell I'll be
Standin' on holy ground

[BigXthaPlug:]
Ay, see the devil keep holdin' me down
But my people say, "Pop it"
See, I come from the gutter, the mud, the dirt, but somehow, I got tied to this rocket
Huh, I was down on my luck, I ain't had me a buck
Swear this life shit was rocky
Had to figure it out ASAP 'cause see, now I got kids, I be damned if they copy
Every store we walk in, now we shoppin'
If I see it, I like it, I cop it
It was days when I didn't have shit
Used to walk through the store, puttin' shit in my pockets
Kickin' doors, you get caught, keep it solid
All them nights that I felt I was droppin'
All them nights I was thuggin' alone in them streets
If a nigga try me, bet I pop him
Get to thinkin' 'bout shit and get nauseous, shh
All the folks that's six feet in them coffins
All them people that's stuck in them cells, they was havin' that shit, now they can't get it off 'em
All the OGs that used to be bosses
They all dead or in jail, they either was sellin' that shit or was smokin' that shit
Now the youth lookin' crazy as hell (Crazy as hell)

[Jessie Murph:]
Life's smoking gun looks dangerous
That's the way it is, that's the way it was
When you learn to run, it was in the mud
It was in the cold, now it's in your blood
I burn from the hell I've seen
But the devil can't hold me down
I've earned all the hell I'll be
Standin' on holy ground

[BigXthaPlug:]
They said if I get me some money that shit would get better and change
The only thing changed 'bout this shit is I got me some money
The rest of this shit still feelin' the same
Shit, it probably got worse
'Cause now I got cake, everybody gon' want them a piece
As soon as you text someone, know they gon' call you a ho 'cause they that you owe them a fee
You can't even do for yourself 'cause they peep
They gon' go on the Internet, make a little post, sayin', "What about me?"
Shit. What about you? You left me on E
In the jungle, I came out that bitch like a beast
With the lions and tigers, can't fuck with no sheep
Can't compete with a nigga who come from defeat
Huh, pissed 'em off when I got on my feet
Huh, pissed 'em off when I got in my bag
If a nigga hate me, know he mad
How the fuck can you speak out and hate on a nigga who winnin' when you know he worked for that bag?
Swear it's folks who is weird and they sad
But I'm built for it all, that's a fact
But the ones who stayed down and believed in a nigga, I swear we gon' shine even when it get bad
Ay

[Jessie Murph:]
Life's smoking gun looks dangerous
That's the way it is, that's the way it was

It was in the cold, now it's in your blood
I burn from the hell I've seen
But the devil can't hold me down
I've earned all the hell I'll be
Standin' on holy ground
