"Off Tha Block" lyrics

Hey (Aye)
It's Duchess, again
Damn damn damn
Damn damn damn
Mmm mmm

I got it off the block (Got it off the block)
Yeah, I lost a lot (Yeah, I lost a lot)
I was never taught
Showed myself how to get it
Jump, and now I can't stop (Can't stop, can't stop)
Got it off the block (Off the block)
Yeah, I lost a lot
I was never taught
Showed myself how to get it
Jump, and now I can't stop

Man, fuck this shit
I don't hide shit
Wanna disguise who I am (Aye)
But the truth is
They don't want the truth (No)
They want me to lie right to them (Bitch)
They want me to ride next to them
Then blow like the wind (Boom-boom)
Yeah, they want me to win
For their own benefits (Bitch)
If I go down, if I get hit
They don't give a shit
Bitch

You don't see me for me
You don't see all of this talent
Anything I do, I'll be good at it
Bitches be hating
Intimidation
I'm a challenge
Trying to keep the balance
My points be valid
Only show love when I'm feeding havoc
Gotta look past it
So I don't get violent
Give myself the credit
Cause I'm staying silent (silent)
Only see me when I got it
Not when I'm trying
Or providing (Bitch)
Either I'm living or I'm dying
Won't quit trying
Give me the torch, I'll light it
When you live this life
It's not exciting
Living is surviving
Make more investments
Broaden my horizon
I'm striking
Like lightning
Money coming
Good timing
Bitch
Damn damn damn

Got it off the block (Got it off the block)
Yeah, I lost a lot (Yeah, I lost a lot)
I was never taught
Showed myself how to get it
Jump, and now I can't stop (Can't stop, can't stop)
Got it off the block (Got it off the block)
Yeah, I lost a lot (Yeah, I lost a lot)
I was never taught
Showed myself how to get it
Jump, and now I can't stop (Can't stop, can't stop)

I'm not got for your liking (Nope-nope)
But I am good for the piping (Boom-boom)
I like when two old homies
Come together, reuniting
Pressure, I'm applying
Tension, I'm dividing
What'd you say? I'm overriding (Bitch)
Off tha Block
Yeah, I find it
I didn't choose this shit
It chose me (It chose me)
Surrounded by my team
But feeling lonely
I don't talk much
I listen, closely
I keep, gain and refrain
Then make my move, low key
Built me into a trophy
I didn't even mean to
Got heart and I'm solid at the root
It was my time, couldn't hit snooze
Had to get him going
Had to take him on a cruise
At times I was confused like "Why me?"
Had to make up my own rules
Now, try me
Learned the hard way
Motherfuckers grime me
When I spoke highly
They surprise me
He told on me while he right beside me
All the hate inspired me (Bitch)
He told on me while he right beside me
All the hate inspired me (Bitch, bitch)
Damn damn damn

Got it off the block (Got it off the block)
Yeah, I lost a lot (Yeah, I lost a lot)
I was never taught
Showed myself how to get it
Jump, and now I can't stop (Can't stop, can't stop)
Got it off the block (Got it off the block)
Yeah, I lost a lot (Yeah, I lost a lot)
I was never taught
Showed myself how to get it
Jump, and now I can't stop (Can't stop, can't stop)

Got it off the block
Yeah, I lost a lot
Damn damn damn
Can't stop, can't stop
Mmm mmm mmm
