No Way Out
G Herbo Lyrics

Uh, I'm from a place where they don't make it out
I come from a neighborhood where most people don't succeed or escape their circumstances.

Me and my niggas tryna make it out
My friends and I are determined to find success and improve our lives.

Grew up with them goblins, we all came from the trenches
I grew up with my friends in a dangerous and impoverished environment.

Young niggas lived, learned lessons, we ain't wanna listen
We were young and reckless, and refused to pay attention to advice or warnings.

We just was wilin' , having fun, and made some bad decisions
We were wild and carefree, which led us to make mistakes and poor choices.

But we was runnin' shit, No Limit, we ain't have to listen
Despite our rebelliousness, we felt powerful and in control, not bound by rules or authority.

I was like fifteen, remember I had the coldest winter
When I was fifteen, I experienced the harshest and most difficult time in my life.

We lost Lil Roc in February, White Folks was November
We tragically lost Lil Roc in February, and White Folks in November, leaving us mourning their deaths.

This was my freshman year of high school, we was just beginners
During my first year of high school, we were still young and inexperienced in life.

Skipped breakfast, woke up sliding, loading pipes for dinner
We didn't even have a proper meal in the morning, instead, we were focused on preparing weapons and engaging in dangerous activities.

This all I knew, pop out, all my niggas wanna do
This was the only lifestyle we were familiar with, and all my friends wanted to live the same way.

Felt like an obligation, did what we was 'posed to do
It felt like a duty or responsibility to engage in illegal activities, and we followed through with it.

G Faro lost his bro, I seen it drill a hole in you
My friend G Faro lost his brother, and witnessing his pain and grief deeply affected me.

Said to myself, 'No matter what, I'll always roll with you'
I promised myself that I would always be there for my friends, no matter the circumstances.

I'll always ride with you, pull up, homicide with you
I will support my friends until the end, even if it means engaging in violent acts together.

And for my brothers, it's whatever, 150 forever
I am fiercely loyal to my friends, and we will be united as a brotherhood forever.

No Limit tats on us forever, got that shit together
We have tattoos representing our loyalty to No Limit, and we have our lives aligned in a unified manner.

We only tryna find the money, we ain't folding, never
Our main goal is to earn money, and we will never give up or surrender.

I look at myself as like the blueprint for my niggas
I see myself as a model or example for my friends to follow.

Really just, you know what I'm saying, showing
I am genuinely trying to demonstrate and teach them.

A way of how to make shit better, not even
A method of improving our lives, not merely escaping from our current situation.

A way out, 'cause we young niggas, you know what
I don't see it as finding an escape route, because we are young and in this together.

I'm saying, we in this shit together, and really
We are all facing the same struggles and challenges, and we must support each other.

With me being in the streets, and all that shit
Considering my involvement in criminal activities and the street life.

Everything that happened in my life, I ain't never
No matter what events occurred in my life, I never

Prayed, or you know what I'm saying, nothing like that, for no
Made any specific prayers or requests to change my circumstances.

Way out or to change what I got going on
I never asked for an escape or a transformation of my current situation.

Even with me having a relationship with God
Despite having a spiritual connection with God

'Cause I already knew what I was signed up for
Because I was fully aware of the consequences and risks I had accepted.

And everything in my life just played out, feel like it's destined for me
Every event in my life unfolded according to a predetermined fate.

I came from hiding from the cops, running with my mans
I originated from a life of evading the police, running alongside my friends.

And getting blew at by the opps, ducking under vans
Facing gunfire from our adversaries, while taking cover under vehicles.

To copping shit before it drop and counting hunnid bands
Now, I am buying lucrative items before their release and counting large sums of money.

Tryna stay humble in the jungle, you don't understand
I am attempting to remain humble and grounded in a dangerous and chaotic environment, which may be difficult for you to comprehend.

'Cause when you come from nothing, and turn that into something
When you originate from poverty and manage to build wealth or success

Niggas get to hating, ones you never seen was coming
People who you've never encountered before start showing hatred or jealousy towards you.

But you ain't pussy, fuck them niggas, make you start stunting
However, you refuse to be intimidated by their negativity and instead, it motivates you to show off your achievements.

Get niggas pissed so they do something make you start bussin'
You intentionally provoke others to the point where they may take aggressive action, causing you to retaliate.

And this the struggle of a young black nigga tryna make it
This represents the challenges faced by a young black man striving for success.

You livin' life, you gotta watch for niggas tryna take it
When you are living a certain lifestyle, you must be cautious of individuals who may attempt to harm or take advantage of you.

And can't surround yourself with niggas tryna down niggas, clown niggas
It is crucial not to associate with individuals who try to bring others down or act foolishly.

Don't want work, just wanna be around niggas
They don't want to put in the effort or contribute, they just want to be in the presence of others.

I had to show my niggas money is the way out
I had to demonstrate to my friends that financial success is the key to improving our lives.

Ain't gotta leave the gang, but if you broke, that's how you stay out
You don't have to abandon our group, but if you remain impoverished, you'll never escape the hardships associated with it.

And just moved Shanse out in a new crib, all the way out
I recently relocated Shanse to a new, safer home, far away from the dangers of the streets.

In a place I know my sis safe out
I ensured that my sister is now residing in a secure environment.

'Cause my family, know I don't play 'bout
Because my family is aware that I am extremely serious and protective.
