The Man
T.H. Express Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm a made nigga, they hate on me, but I made niggas
We had it hard for so long, look how they slay niggas
Ain't too many people here can say they slay niggas
Ay, let me take you on a journey
How many niggas had to see they mama on a gurney
Back in high school, puttin' up numbers in the tourney
Turn around, spendin' mama money on attorneys
Ay, this shit is real life
I had to chill out on them pills, get my mind right
I'm tryna make lemonade out the limelight
Can't even if they take the bugs, I'ma shine bright
I let my soul shine, nigga, I ain't buyin' ice
I'm on a whole nother wave
Everybody dying, I'm at a whole nother grave
And I'm drivin' down the road that I paved
I'm still a big foe until they put me in the grave
And I'm giving nigga faith, nigga, you gotta live your life
Cause you can leave any day
And I'm still workin', tryna get my dogs away
One foot in the game, bitch, I'm still catchin' plays
Keep on makin' hits until they put me on the stage
They tryna buy diamonds and I'm tryna buy land
They going with the flow and I'm the nigga with the plan
These niggas got me hot, aye somebody get a fan
You know that life a bitch and I'm just tryna get a tan
Ay, been through some real shit
And I don't really give a fuck if you don't feel this
I miss Chris, I miss my granny and my pops
Still lyin' in they song, man, It need to stop it
These niggas really rats, might as well call them cops
I pray I make it rappin', I'm threw posting on the block
I pray I make it rappin', I'm through running from the cop
Done tryna set up shop




Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go
Oh
