From Da Bottom

Young n***as gettin' money

And we don't owe you n***as s**t

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

I'da sip Ciroc with Diddy drunk Spade with Hov

In the vip of the 40 with some bad a*s h*es

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**k 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 killing myself

A lot of n***as hate me now cause I'm feeling myself

F**k '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

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

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

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*****e

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

Last night I forgot to pray for s**t 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

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**k 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*s n***as

You heard me

Meek Milly real n***a for life
