Yb2k - Solo Street

It's YBK with a K (Yeah)
And they said I couldn't have it
Always shown me hate and violence
It ain't nothing to me I got it
It ain't nothing to me I got it
Homie I'm a savage
Shawty knows I'm above the average
No diamonds but I'm shinin'
Way I'm ballin on'em like magic (Yeah, yeah yeah yeah)
They want to stop me, they can never do it yeah
Grindin' grindin' grindin' on a young brother head
Showed me fake love, all you did was pretend
We went through it all, never switched up on the gang
Came from the slums, homies living off a meal
Life wasnt stark, but heart was iron steel
Just cause they show the love, doesn't mean that's how they feel
High attracts the fake and the low brings out the real
My feet on the gas, never had it on the break
Appreciate the doubters, man I feed off the hate
It's because of y'all brothers that I keep on bein' great
Can't stop the grind it's the top that awaits
And they said I couldn't have it
Always shown me hate and violence
It ain't nothing to me I got it
It ain't nothing to me I got it
Homie I'm a savage
Shawty knows I'm above the average
No diamonds but I'm shinin'
Way I'm ballin on'em like magic (Yeah, yeah yeah yeah)
Life be a rollercoaster sometimes high sometimes low
But like the midnight sky I'm destined to glow
Just like the solar system my dreams are aligned
Could pour out verses for ages from this immaculate mind
Only took her one time to see I'm a different breed
5'10 Skinny n***a knock you out with them punch lines, I pull a creed (Apollo Creed)
It's 2020 vision masked up like I'm Bruce Wayne
Still hurtin' inside I'm on some max pain
Had the odds stacked against me
My back against the wall
Told me I wouldn't prevail
Told me I wouldn't ball
But lil homie when the man above on your side, ain’t no way he's going to let you fall
'Cause I grew up in the slums, around hard hitters
Mom ain't around, no dad either
Never had the spoon in my mouth, been a go getter
Always on the grind trying to make myself better
Too much potential I've been hidin'
Never outta ammo, I been loading (Osama)
So, Raise the pen I overcome my pain
2018 Bro got stabbed, shit messed up all my brain (Yeah, yeah, look)
Only 19, was long enough to see two homies die
For the bros that went done shed a tear in my eye
So I live everyday like it's my last Yolo that’s what I live by
Ain't given another life, like you ain't given another alibi
We're chained to fear, I guess that's what happens when your skin black
Like Roble like Caleb, I pray I don't die young
Runnin' my own race, but 'cause of my race
just like Tay K, they wanna see a brother do the race
But never let that hold me I'm one proud negro
Never stopped runnin' this marathon you can call it a Knee grow
Verses be sacred, a mother gotta cry cause some cop took
What she thought was sacred
Could rap about guns, poppin pills, and p**** but, I'd rather cleanse out the hatred
To my yungins, life is too short for you to be focused on the drip
That car you're fantasizin' starts depreciating the moment you get it
So don’t be trippin on a whip
I’m turnin' my dreams into reality, like my life's a lucid dream
Shout out Simsim, Victor, Abe
I do this for the whole team
Hustle and motivate, all I'm trynna do
I'm just another body that my brothers are living through
Just like a shooting star I’mma make sure the whole squad's dream come true (Yeah)
