"All That For A Drop Of Blood" lyrics

"All That For A Drop Of Blood"

I remember when I didn't have a dollar
Young black and hungry just living with my momma
Eyes out for one time, sliding on the collar
Old photographs how I got to know my father
Always on the come-up, that's just how I came up
Kobe in his prime how I swore to light the game up
Money on my mind so I swore to never change up
Lost many lives, we just trying to get our name up
We stay up, thinking of a master plan to get that bread up
Head on swivel my boy, avoid the set-up
It's getting harder to eat, streets are fed up
Everybody king til the face who the next up
Rough times, no signs of getting better man
Reporting live from the storm like the weatherman
Flying high, bird's eye, hope I never land
To all my fallen, we love you forever, fam

You brought me back man, back to the zone of Czarlem
Post-partem when I give birth to verses? Never
I just need the loyalty, hold the stardom (hold that)
I just need my boy to have his shit together (what else?)
I just need my girl to have her shit together
Spitting clever ain't gonna carry us through the sickest weather
Different terror every time I lift the phone
Put me in a different zone, frame of mind
Living on borrowed time
Call me Ishmail, I'm trying to right the ship
Feeling like a fish out of water, fuck if the Nikes fit
Y'all in their mentions hungry for attention
You hurtin' someone when you gunning for that viral clip
What's the sense and? Get a buzz, little rush
Biters got me feeling like Joel Miller in the Last of Us
And I'm a G walking through that doorway
That's a grand entrance, respect the forte

Respect the forte

I just need the loyalty, hold the stardom
I just need my boy to have his shit together
