Lyrics

Only Life I Know (feat. Troy Ave )

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

She said I wanna hold you down, but we ain’t never gonna be right

‘Cause you took out your fame in street life

But that’s the only life I know

She said the niggers dancing right, you ain’t never gonna be right

‘Cause everybody wanna be mine

Instead of focusing on their own, dog

But that’s the only life I know

They say a woman cancel dates ‘cause she has to

And a man cancel dates ‘cause he has two

Well, I got two dates, one with destiny

I need more, baby, don’t think any less of me

Try to joggle, slowly but came to struggle

Sometimes I wanna hug the block, sometimes I wanna hug you

Sometimes is about the check, sometimes is about checking that

The nero said you gotta leave in 30 seconds, flat

When the heat’s coming even if you need someone

Leave it in the rear view, don’t look back, keep running

Left for any passenger with the g running

Hazard lights blinking in the beat bumping

Air to the streets, I hear a sweet’s coming

Air to your chest so I hear a beat from it

She fell in love with a street nigger

Tattoo my name on her petite figure

She said I wanna hold you down, but we ain’t never gonna be right

‘Cause you took out your fame in street life

But that’s the only life I know

She said the niggers dancing right, you ain’t never gonna be right

‘Cause everybody wanna be mine

Instead of focusing on their own, dog

But that’s the only life I know

There’s always money to be made, that you can’t deny

I always made mine, never won who came to side

I’m only human so if I don’t eat I can’t survive

And mama said you’re not a man if you can’t provide

The summers know a shortcut, it brings me home

I worked so hard to get here, now it keeps me going

By the time I get in what she made to get the old

When I slide in bed she complain my feet be cold

Caught in street life just like my bitch said

I love the game, I love the hustle, just like mitch said

Yeah, I can leave the game, but it’s they still gonna love me?

When a new nigger come they gonna stop thinking of me

Shawty watch the hustle movie she can never get

How they make so much money, but they never quit

I tell her quit for what? That’s the only life they know

The street’s a dirty hoe, niggers try to wife it, though

She said I wanna hold you down, but we ain’t never gonna be right

‘Cause you took out your fame in street life

But that’s the only life I know

She said the niggers dancing right, you ain’t never gonna be right

‘Cause everybody wanna be mine

Instead of focusing on their own, dog

But that’s the only life I know
