Tee Grizzley - Beat The Streets

Lyrics

[Intro]
J.R

[Chorus]
I'm a street nigga that got motivated (To what?) To make it out these streets
These streets don't love, they'll take you
They tell you it's exciting, they don't tell you this shit dangerous
Get shot, you might not make it, that's the chances that you takin', nigga (That's the chances that you takin', nigga)

[Verse 1]
Or get locked up and you might not make it back
I swear I know some niggas locked up that ain't never comin' back, I hope
I tell 'em close they eyes and picture theyself anywhere
But when thеy open they eyеs up, they're still right there
That's a different pain, I swear that type shit make me nervous (Why?)
I could've been right there telling myself it weren't worth it (Damn)
They ain't support him while he was living but they showed up to his service
He had no one to call but ow look how packed out that church is (R.I.P)

[Pre-Chorus]
They told us "Be real, nigga" (Told us "Be real, nigga")
Niggas that told us that weren't even real niggas (They weren't even real niggas)
You don't get shit for being real nigga (You don't get shit for being real nigga)
It was the sacrifice, so we deal with it like some real niggas, for real, nigga (It was the sacrifice, so we deal with it like some real niggas)

[Chorus]
I'm a street nigga that got motivated (To what?) To make it out these streets
These streets don't love, they'll take you
They tell you it's exciting, they don't tell you this shit dangerous
Get shot, you might not make it, that's the chances that you takin', nigga (That's the chances that you takin', nigga)
[Verse 2]
Or get popped up, you might not be able to walk no more
Lot of niggas got popped up and them boys ain't never gon' talk no more
Lot of niggas ain't gon' breathe no more
Lot of niggas ain't gon' speak no more
It's too late to make a smart decision, they can't think no more (It's too late)
Nigga, we ain't never been no bitches (Never)
We had to start takin' life serious (We had to)
Lot of niggas died over they Insta
All them niggas did was post they pictures (At all)
Niggas ain't tryna sit in prison (They ain't)
They just post pictures tryna get visits
Thank God for whatever he give me
All this shit can be gone in an instant

[Pre-Chorus]
They told us "Be real, nigga" (Told us "Be real, nigga")
Niggas that told us that weren't even real niggas (They weren't even real niggas)
You don't get shit for being real nigga (You don't get shit for being real nigga)
It was the sacrifice, so we deal with it like some real niggas, for real, nigga (It was the sacrifice, so we deal with it like some real niggas)

[Chorus]
I'm a street nigga that got motivated (To what?) To make it out these streets
These streets don't love, they'll take you
They tell you it's exciting, they don't tell you this shit dangerous
Get shot, you might not make it, that's the chances that you takin', nigga (That's the chances that you takin', nigga)
I'm a street nigga that got motivated (To what?) To make it out these streets
These streets don't love, they'll take you
They tell you it's exciting, they don't tell you this shit dangerous
Get shot, you might not make it, that's the chances that you takin', nigga (That's the chances that you takin', nigga)
[Outro]
They won't tell you that
