What We Do
R.A Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We don't do this for the money
We don't do this for the fame
Brought these dead men to life
So we lifting up His name
Took straight from the bottom doe
New light yea we got the glow
Making moves cuz we trained to go
Hustle hard never stop the flow
(Yea yea)Thats what we do
(Aww yea yea) Thats what we do
(Yea yea)Thats what we do
(Aww yea yea) Thats what we do
(Yea yea)Thats what we do
(Aww yea yea) Thats what we do
(Yea yea)Thats what we do
(Aww yea yea) Thats what we do

Do it up for the vine dresser
Crushing doubt that's a wine presser
Hustle hard we don't mind pressure
That New life you can't find fresher
This living water got me soaked doe
Got me fishing by the boat load
Running forward like Flo Joe
With His vision on me that's a go pro
Sauce got me feeling clean
Never thirstin for thr green
Never switching up the teams
YHWH over everything
Squad surfing yea we waving on em
Luci lurking yea I'm waiting on em
God purchased no debating on it
Can't stop it so they hating on it
We pull up heavy have yo team ducking
While yall mean mugging, like it mean something
On stage got yo team jumping
With they hands high like they need something
It's us and God we don't need nothing
We spit da truth we gon keep bussin
Holy weapon we gon keep tuckin
Count us out we keep coming... like
Cosigned by the Most High so we gon ride til we gon fly
To the end zone that's the goaline, tryna win souls thats the goldmine
Flu game flow that's the G.O.A.T. grind
Power move so you know it's He
Flexing like He supposed to be
Defeated death when He rose in 3
Now Christ in you that's the holy key

We don't do this for the money
We don't do this for the fame
Brought these dead men to life
So we lifting up His name
Took straight from the bottom doe
New light yea we got the glow
Making moves cuz we trained to go
Hustle hard never stop the flow
(Yea yea) Thats what we do
(Aww yea yea) Thats what we do
(Yea yea) Thats what we do
(Aww yea yea) Thats what we do
(Yea yea) Thats what we do
(Aww yea yea) Thats what we do
(Yea yea) Thats what we do
(Aww yea yea) Thats what we do

Super Saiyan Litty since the Spirit hit me often dying like I'm Goku
Keep a smile trust me you will never never know know what I'm going thru
Prefer the silence, nah I'm lying rocky w/ me
Keep me focused where I'm going to
The road is narrow peak is skinny keep ya balance  
Please be mindful who you hold to
Cuz I cannot waste no more time
A junkie for bars Im not wasting a line
See no dollar signs but I see people dying
All the time, Instagram timeline I can not sleep without peace
I pray for you brothers who safe w/ the heat
This is the wisdom you need on repeat
My God is so high but that grave is so deep... sheesh
I find myself right in between, no angel nor demon, a voice of the street
I keep it a stack when ihop (I hop) on the beat
The sauce is forever the wave is too steep
You cannot kill our vibes... No Nick Saban brother I roll till I'm tide
Up at the crack of daylight, then just like R Kelly you bumping our grind
How you ppl want it huh? don't care for the trap but support it huh?
Then someone comes up with some substance you listen one time
Then it's back to what's jumping huh? My mind is like bump it y'all
I could rhyme about nothing y'all! but then I hear choppers start dumpin
And God reminds me that, that's who we do this for

We don't do this for the money
We don't do this for the fame
Brought these dead men to life
So we lifting up His name
Took straight from the bottom doe
New light yea we got the glow
Making moves cuz we trained to go
Hustle hard never stop the flow
(Yea yea) Thats what we do
(Aww yea yea) Thats what we do
(Yea yea) Thats what we do
(Aww yea yea) Thats what we do
(Yea yea) Thats what we do
(Aww yea yea) Thats what we do




(Yea yea) Thats what we do
(Aww yea yea) Thats what we do

Traversy Media

The fact that a SixNine (however the fuck you spell it) video gets millions of views and this doesn’t just shows how God damn stupid people are. You guys are a treasure to hip hop. Please don’t stop

SD OS

I'm surprised nobody has stomped out his rainbow teeth yet

The CNSR

Well you forget these guys have been blackballed for years, while 69 initially had labels and the whole machine making him the most visible artist everywhere at one point, which in this day and age just means like half the world has been exposed to him. So that exposure is what translates into views of either people following or just curiously clicking, it'd be the same if these guys were exposed in the mainstream as much.

Diego's corner

@The CNSR RA was blackballed, Tech was never blackballed.
