Hollywood

I started out at the bottom, yes I came up from nothing
Had a lot of people who told me that I wouldn't amount to nothing
Soon as I got something started, niggas act like I owe them something
But nigga I don't owe you shit, you say I do fuck you and who you with
I fought for everything I got and a nigga don't brag 'bout what he have
But I work hard to have a lot cause I can't go back to when times got bad
Them hard nights and my hard life is what keep me motivated
But I feel so misunderstood cause anytime shit go good
They say I'm hollywood
Cause a young nigga living good
I done worked my way to the top
Cause you know the grind it don't stop
Just let me get my shine
If you sill hating then I'm sorry
That you think I'm hollywood
Cause a young nigga living good
You think I'm hollywood
When you see I'm doing good
When you see I'm doing good
Nigga you see I'm doing good
Cause I do just what I gotta do to get the food up on the table
Make sure my family eating good, took my momma out the hood thank God I'm able
It's such a blessing ain't too much stressing
Its cold outchea in these streets, why a fuck nigga wanna hate on me?
I fought for everything I got and a nigga don't brag 'bout what he have
But I work hard to have a lot cause I can't go back to when times got bad
Them hard nights and my hard life is what keep me motivated
But I feel so misunderstood cause anytime shit go good
They say I'm hollywood
Cause a young nigga living good
I done worked my way to the top
Cause you know the grind it don't stop
Just let me get my shine
If you sill hating then I'm sorry
That you think I'm hollywood
Cause a young nigga living good
You think I'm hollywood
When you see I'm doing good
When you see I'm doing good
Nigga you see I'm doing good
Now they telling me congratulations
But deep down they hating
And it starts to come from familiar faces, they pray on my fall
I'm giving my all, taking trips to different places
Usually when people feel they make it
It seems so easy to go and get complacent
But I'm up right now, tryna make a million bucks right now
I stayed down 'til I came up, never changed up but
They still gon' say I'm hollywood
Cause a young nigga living good
I done worked my way to the top
Cause you know the grind it don't stop
Just let me get my shine
If you sill hating then I'm sorry
That you think I'm hollywood
Cause a young nigga living good
You think I'm hollywood
When you see I'm doing good
When you see I'm doing good
Nigga you see I'm doing good
