M.Graveyard Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They say it started with a dream and a dollar
But what if you ain't got no dollar
Not saying that i don't
But i seen king push Humpty
And bragged boast
So watch yo niggas
Cause it only take one
So don't never trust that oath
And these are my confessions
But I show no concern
I let them bridges burn
I had to learn
Rolling on flats
Toating them irons
Out of line
We straighten it em' up like perms
Only began they trynna get me
Just found balance
So M.kb i'm standing firm
Remember riding on them scooters
Use to call me a shooter
Always post up on the corner
Knock down niggas madula
Keep dreaming they freed my nigga fred
But I still see that nigga courage
21 and hoes my age just play
I really need me a courage
Feel like I'm cheated out my dreams
And they keep sending double teams
But i can't fold they molding with me
That's why i put on for my team
And mama said baby youn gotta lie
Just spit it from the spleen
You still on fire baby
I see you out there chasing new things
You know i'm proud so we smile
And you the g.o.a.t. this for the family
Get it by any means
Cause a man like you in lp
Yeah we never would've seen
So keep yo head high
And never let down them shoulders
And spit that shit baby boy
You know that shit mean
That dirt get rid of every source
so i said fuck it fuck the course
Ain't really got no choses
It's saturday thugging hard on torris
Church Sundays and we rejoicing
I see them blessing coming in
So I stick to the course
They say it started with a dream and a dollar
But what if you ain't got no dollar
Not saying that i don't
But i seen king push humpty
And bragged boast
So watch yo niggas
Cause it only take one
So don't never trust that oath
And these are my confessions
But I show no concern
I let bridges burn I had to learn
Rolling on flats toating them irons
Out of line we straight em up like perms
Only began they trynna get me
Just found the balance
Now i'm standing firm
Everybody wanna hate me
I must've changed my name to chris
They can't rap but they talking silent
Like I can't go make a diss
But i'm coaching the cardinals
So best believe i'll send the blitz
I got you niggas throwing picks
I guess they posing for the pic
I picked up the pennies
Cause I was seeking change
In my lane all I see is fame
And the streets keep getting lame
I want what's better
Not the fantasy cars
And all the freaky broads
But shake off these devils
But when shit get hard
And they get some scars
They'll float away like feathers
It's the same ole shit that I been going through
Hop on the beat only goal
To make them dreams come true
They trynna throw my name in the wood
Just like a fucking screw
I'm driving down the lane catching all bodies
You can see the proof
I'm bulletproof
Cause all these niggas keep on taking shots
Apple going crazy it say it's hot up on my block
I keep my foot on they neck
Coming from the bottom just like socks
Gone be global young thug and gunna gunna
This shit hot
They say it started with a dream and a dollar
But what if you ain't got no dollar
Not saying that i don't
But i seen king push humpty
And bragged boast
So watch yo niggas
Cause it only take one
So don't never trust that oath
And these are my confessions
But I show no concern
I let bridges burn I had to learn
Rolling on flats toating them irons
Out of line we straight em up like perms
Only began they trynna get me




Just found the balance
Now i'm standing firm
