[Intro: Meek Mill] Young n***as gettin' money And we don't owe you n***as sh** I'm from Philly n***a We come from the bottom Come from nothin' And n***as got the nerve to ask me why I'm stuntin? Huh? [Verse 1: Meek Mill] I'da sip Ciroc with Diddy, drunk Spade with Hov In the vip of the 40, with some bad-a** hoes Had my grip on my forty, still was at that stove The same night work got cooked half that sold A pyrex and a triple beam Like Mr. King had a dream we ain't miss a fiend Talking dirty to these n***as with my Listerine If I was there you know we ball, Mr. Clean I'm talking LIV Sunday blowing hella racks Just getting right cause in my life I been from hell and back I'm just that nice and I don't write so you can tell 'em that I'm just making up for nights when I was selling crack On the corner in the cold try'na sling them O's And half my n***as in the city went against the code Them n***as told, still partying them n***as bold But I'm like f** it I'm young and getting it them n***as old Take a walk up to that mirror boy look at yourself You see a getta or a n***a just lookin' for help And every night I'm in the studio k**ing myself A lot of n***as hate me now cause I'm feeling myself f** em' though They screaming be humble, boy be humble But ain't nobody say that when my stomach used to rumble Looked in a cell when I seen my dreams crumble Now I'm out here buzzing you can here the bee's bumble [Bridge: Buordan] Seen some things that can't be told I was told these roads was pure as gold I never told I never sold my soul I just went at every thing I dove [Hook: Guordan] Nobody's going back to da bottom Nobody's going to da bottom I can't be every n***a role model I can't go back to the bottom [Verse 2: Meek Mill] n***as getting high, just to take the pain away When I'm just getting by couple million for a rainy day Off season but I practice like I got a game today And everybody ain't gon' make it out it's a shame to say
Feeling like Mike before the fade away I'm like should I take the shot? or let it fade away? And all this love I'm getting ain't gon' take the hate away But these haters motivate me in a crazy way Ain't no I in team - from what I done seen It's every man for himself well, until I intervene I put my n***as on paper, we swarm paper like lions when they smell blood When dream shatters they sell love like c**aine Or h**n from h**n I'm Cobain I'm blowing up I did my own thing They want my soul and my body for a little chain I'm dancing with the Illuminati call it Soul Train n***a [Bridge] [Hook] [Verse 3: Meek Mill] Last night I forgot to pray for sh** that I got today The devil 'round the corner and the reaper a block away It's body after body very few of us find a way You gotta watch for the hook like you sticking Dr. J My defensive is like three fences and a brick wall I get soft every time we go against ya'll I'm on guard play the point like I'm Chris Paul You get crossed like AI did Mike for this ball For this rock you get shot, picked off Cause in this game we shooting metal like it's pin ball I put this Mac to your face like lip gloss And do you right and put you on ice like Lindros n***a [Hook] [Outro: Meek Mill] I started with a dollar and a dream And I'm willing to go and get it by any means I can't be every n***a role model Why nobody my role model I got my own son to raise And my life is very precious And my son expect me to walk through that door every night So any n***a try and stop my shine gotta get it All my n***as out to get it And we ain't never going back to the bottom None of my n***as I hear everybody talking He spending too much money be humble Man f** all that Who was talking when I was dead broke starving huh? Ay Gutta, what these n***as talking huh? It's D.C. double M, G We been jumped out the barrel on your crab a** n***as You heard me? Meek Milly, real n***a for life!
