Relly the Emcee - One Tyme

It's the first of the month
Food stamps and checks done cleared
We celebrate drinking beers with a home cooked meal
Where you gotta walk around with ya chrome concealed
For protection so you won't get killed
That's how it is in the hood
Gotta take the bad with the good
Shid I'd change the circumstances if i could
Fiends getting high
Kids still smiling
Blind to the poverties and uphill challenge
Pusha T Malice use to kick the grinding beat on the green box
Spit a sick flow as they beat bop
Was hanging like the clean socks
On the clothesline
Icebergs from candy lady cost me four dimes
I was ten cents short she told me bring it next time
That subtle love in the hood you wouldn't think that you'd find
Adapted to crime, where the young niggas trap to survive
So many ways it impacted our lives, we reside
In the Projects
(Aye) One time for the projects
(One time) (One time) (One time) (One time)
One time for the projects (One time)
Way before social media
You had to make a stop by the shop
To know the latest even if you ain't need a cut
We took heed to what the old heads was teaching us
They would give us free game as they sweeping up
Keeping up with all the sports
Who won the fight last night
Mayweather with the mean ass right
Good community of brothers
If you needed advice
Camaraderie every weekend was life
Saturday morning looking forward to it
Cuz all week i been going through it
Need to see my guy selling movies
And all the latest music
We debate who's the greatest of all time
Back and forth kicking lines
From biggie jay-z and nas
Talking over clippers buzzing
Man the discussions get intense all the time
But niggas speaking they mind
To think it all started in 1879
So many ways it impacted our lives
One time, for the barbershop
(Yeah) One time, for the barbershop
(One time) (One time) (One time) (One time)
One time for the barbershop (one time)
(One time) (One time) (One time) (One time)
(One time)
