Stand Up Tall (Explicit)

I had to earn respect

Cause i didnt act no fool

Swear we just got a next cheque

Now we got money on call

They dont wanna see man flex

Its like they want man to fall

But i could never get vex

So i just stand up tall

Out on a paper chase thats all

See i never went pro

But my jobs to ball

Running for the bag

Started with a crawl

I took my chance from when i got the first call

I had to brawl and fight

I changed my life

Energy man make sure thats right

Have you got a clean heart are you woke for the hype

Man act like say theyre on smoke in a ride

You aint bad on your own you talk loads with your guys

Dem man running down hoes for a wife

Cause your gassed online tryna fit in to a type

Following everybody your tryna get a stripe

But you should be yourself noone should tell you what you like

Wheel it up mana tell em get up on there bike

Im on level thats prime

Say it with my chest but you hit em with a mime

Underground got the minerals im a mine

Only one god i dont look at no shrine

More time mana yard man tek time

Or im in the stu

Hit record and give a next line

Tru talk mana are only on the best vibes

With my real niggas them man are looking like westlife

But styll they dont know how we get down in the west side

You gotta watch out when you come through and you step by

If your a next guy they could be letting the teks fly

Youll get the message one day man its never been easy

If your coming from the struggle and an ends that are greezy

Never see a version of yourself on the tv

Blocks gangs and *** its the theme that they repeat

Like how the boy dats black is purple on tweenies

Its the little things back of your mind it sounds cheesy

But believe me

Now we see g

Its set up for us to be beneath

Like if your chilling a tracky then you seem cheap

And if youre a woman and your black you cant be weak

Not only bruddas in jail that wanna be free

Are you a leader cause i see sheep

I had to earn respect

Cause i didnt act no fool

Swear we just got a next cheque

Now we got money on call

They dont wanna see man flex

Its like they want man to fall

But i could never get vex

So i just stand up tall

Out on a paper chase thats all

See i never went pro

But my jobs to ball

Running for the bag

Started with a crawl

I took my chance from when i got the first call

I had to brawl and fight

I changed my life

Energy man make sure thats right
