Glow
Hell Razah Lyrics

They don't wanna see us blow, they don't wanna see us with dough
Others envy our success and do not wish to see us prosper.

They don't wanna see us flow, hell no, we glow
Despite attempts to stifle us, we confidently shine in our craft and artistry.

You knew it was the end the way we came in the door
From the beginning, we commanded attention and respect with our entrance and presence.

Hit the club and I'm a leave with your hoe, hoe, hoe
I attract and effortlessly seduce others' partners, adding to my appeal and confidence.

My flames be hot every time that I throw
My talent and skill are consistently impressive and awe-inspiring.

Ain't nothing new son, I did this before
My experience and previous successes make these accomplishments seem effortless and unsurprising.

GGO, my niggas flip money like it ain't no more
My crew, the Ghetto Government Officials, are experts at handling money and succeeding in business.

'Cause no friends when there ain't no more
When resources and success are scarce, friends and allies become scarce as well.

For the lust of currency, they put their trust in this country
People are willing to betray their values and morals for the sake of financial gain and national loyalty.

All your friends be cunningly when they hungry
The need for survival can cause even close friends to turn on each other.

Jealousy wanna stop the prophet
Envy and insecurity can cause people to try and sabotage those who have more success and power.

Niggas hate to see money in our pockets but they don't knock it
Envy and jealousy are often disguised as admiration and respect, as people may not overtly challenge or criticize our success.

Sold your soul like stock markets, regardless
People are willing to sacrifice their integrity and values for the sake of financial gain, regardless of the consequences.

We bare heartless, with or without revolvers
We are tough and resilient, both mentally and physically, regardless of the presence or absence of weapons.

We been this way before Godfather's or Al Pacino
Our reputation and style has existed before Hollywood and pop culture popularized similar images in films and media.

Catch me with blacks and Latinos

Our crew includes individuals of different ideologies and revolutionary figures, united in our shared goals and values.

Set a trend, watch you and your friend go copy it

The illest shorty on the floppy disk, watch me it clips
Our music and style is revolutionary and cutting-edge, even in the rapidly-changing and evolving technology of the time.

Surpass and outshine all that light you get
We effortlessly surpass and outperform all other competition and criticism.

First you live then you reathe it out, write it and spit
Our experiences and struggles come from real life and personal challenges, and we translate them into our art and lyrics.

And I'm a leave with the same deeds I came in with
My reputation and success is based on my own hard work and talent, and I will never compromise or sell out for the sake of gaining more.

You can't die with those riches you've got, them bitches you got
Material wealth and possessions are ultimately meaningless and unfulfilling in the face of mortality and the end of life.

Enjoy life before it can stop, it's too short
Life is short and unpredictable, and we must appreciate and cherish our time and experiences while we can.

What's hip hop without New York', You should of thought
New York City is an integral and foundational part of hip hop culture and history, and should not be underestimated or overlooked.

I seen brothers get their face cut over Newport's
The dangers and violence of street life and drug culture is a harsh reality that we have seen firsthand, often over trivial or insignificant issues.

Stickup kids who live for you to take your shoes off
There are people who will resort to theft and violence for the sake of material possessions and power, even as trivial as shoes.

We got lawyers working for us that'll lie in the court
Even legal representation and defense can be corrupted and manipulative, often at the expense of true justice and fairness.

We still repent even if Christ ain't die on the cross
Even if one does not believe in traditional Christian beliefs, we still strive for redemption and atonement for past mistakes and sins.

Gamble life like a dice game, head crack, a row aces
Life is full of risks and uncertainty, often requiring determination and skill to navigate successfully.

Dept pays off your sent wages
The price and consequences of financial debt can quickly consume and overcome the benefits of earning money and success.

This takes place on a weekly basis
These struggles and challenges are a regular and common occurrence in our daily lives and careers.

In this business of handshakes and smiling faces
The music industry is often characterized by superficiality and false sincerity, often masking hidden agendas and greed.

Hatred from the whole ghetto made us racist, exclusive
The discrimination and prejudice faced by those from impoverished and marginalized communities can lead to a sense of defensiveness and exclusivity in response.

Got fanatics can't wait to tape it

We ain't too far from y'all, starting to worship a gold pagan

Mystic God in the form of Satan, until nation rides against nation
The consequences of this obsession with wealth and power could ultimately lead to widespread conflict and chaos, with misguided and destructive religious ideologies fueling further strife.

You got wars and more rumours of wars
The political and social climate is increasingly unstable and violent, with war and conflict looming on the horizon.

It's yours truly, every track out I drop jewelry

A sick con while hip hop sit in my palm

Let me hear a rhyme that ain't about crime and firearms
Too much of mainstream hip hop focuses exclusively on crime and violence, without offering any diversity or originality in message or theme.

I'm a quiet bomb, y'all niggas can't disconnect
My influence and presence is explosive and powerful, impossible to ignore or eliminate through criticism or challenge.

If my voice ever left I'm a use the internet
Even if traditional channels and means of communication are shut down or disrupted, I will find alternative ways to spread my message and influence.

Ask Meth if I'm hot enough to come as a threat
My reputation and talent is widely respected and formidable, with even other successful artists acknowledging my influence and power.

And is it safe for you put down and place your bet'
Others may be threatened or intimidated by my success and talent, leading them to doubt or question their own abilities and potential.

You want a hit record, tell your label cut me a check
Working with me and my talent and skill is essential to creating successful and popular music, and record labels must acknowledge and invest in my abilities.

I leave them scared to rhyme, have a verse stuck in his neck
My talent and skill is so powerful and intimidating, it leaves others feeling paralyzed and unable to compete or compare.

[Chorus]
Despite the challenges and opposition we face, we will continue to confidently and proudly shine and succeed in our craft and artistry.
