"Before And After" lyrics
Feelin' better than ever before
(DTdaKidd)
(Beat those drums)
I won't let them jealous niggas trip me out the streets 'cause I got mouths to feed
I had to go get this money, no one passed it down to me
This shit wasn't inherited, buddy, I had to scrap for it
Never been to college, still step on you like a frat boy
I know I said it before, I'll say it again
If I'm not bein' paid for my time, I won't attend
If me and you don't see eye to eye, I won't pretend
My nigga, I lost my brother, fuck I care 'bout a friend?
Fuck I care what you think of me? You can't walk in my past
Nigga, you would've folded if ever given the chance
And you know it
I grab a pad and I write all my ache and pains in these poems
Every time I have a child, I feel like I been reborn
And every time I see they smiles, I feel the spark to keep goin'
You overstep again, my objective to seek and destroy
Without a hint of remorse, treat the bank like a resort
How I'm feelin'? I'm feelin' better than ever before
Feelin' better than ever before
I built it up and it broke my heart when we tore it down
People I loved in my past, we not even cordial now
That's just life, live and learn, as far as I'm concerned
We can blow away the ashes from them bridges I have burned
If you with me, then you know I'm stickin' with you, standin' firm
And I'll never turn my back, even when there's nowhere left to turn
And all I ever wanted was all the things I've earned
I'm not lookin' for no favors, I'm not dodgin' the hard work
I'm gon' make it where I'm headed, I don't care who started first
If you make it there before me, then I got what I deserve
And I'm grateful too, I don't carry no hate for you
Even if we ain't rockin', I'm still proud to see a nigga made it through
I'm shinin' brighter a fog light, when the sack hit, we up all night
We whip it 'til it rock up, that was our definition of off-white
I plan to stand back up three times if a nigga fall twice
And so the fuck what? They left me behind, but I'm alright
I knew nothin' would be easy, nothin' come easy 'cause we had a hard life
Me and you are not the same, I'm a rare build, I'm a different archetype
And you know it
I grab a pad and I write all my ache and pains in these poems
Every time I have a child, I feel like I been reborn
Every time I see they smiles, I feel the spark to keep goin'
You overstep again, my objective to seek and destroy
Without a hint of remorse, treat the bank like a resort
How I'm feelin'? I'm feelin' better than ever before
How I'm feelin'? I'm feelin' better than ever before
How I'm feelin'? I'm feelin' better than ever before
How I'm feelin'? I'm feelin' better than ever before
Long live Pif
Feelin' better than ever before
