Never Been Lyrics - Dave East

Uh 

Our life was never boring 

Every 5 dollars counted, shit that sandwich was important 

I love my niggas, understand it how I call it 

Loc 'till I'm dead, like eggs we would scramble every mornin' 

Holla at red, LAX, we landin' at 4 

Me and Loc use to stand by the store 

Hope the cameras was off 

I did my own dirt, puttin' all of my own work 

How much I could make off of these grams? That was my homework 

You can't understand the highway 'till you hit the road first 

Thinking I was a draft pick the minute I had that growth spurt 

Same nigga played the corner, bodega with no shirt 

Sunflower seeds and Sour Patches, I was askin' 

For extensions on the rent, now it's designer fabric (designer) 

Couldn't sit on auntie furniture, if not the plastic (we couldn't ) 

Really gotta be out your mind to survive the madness 

It ain't hard to buy a boat, it's hard to find a captain 

It ain't hard to find the smoke, it just depend who askin' ( who want it ) 

I gave hope to every block that's in upper Manhattan (Harlem) 

We gave dough burn the tips, I use to light my baggies ( burner) 

Don't focus on us, focus on keepin' wifey happy

If you my nigga, you ain't ever gotta question it 

I give you my last, I think my heart too big to measure it 

Step on the gas, I'm standin' up 'cause I could never sit 

Tryna take my niggas to all the places they never been 

If you my nigga, you ain't ever gotta question it 

Step on the gas, I'm standin' up 'cause I could never sit 

Tryna take my niggas to all the places they never been 

It was so real 

Breakfast lunch and dinner was oatmeal 

I don't drink soda but I'm so familiar with coke deals 

They robbed him when he bought it, ain't get to see how that coat feels 

Might not know her name but I could tell you how her throat feels 

You don't really know me, you ain't know me when I sold pills 

Bubb told me don't pour it up if it ain't got no seal 

Chill never paid the bills, mental racin' still 

Had no TV, now I pay multiple cable bills 

I remember Malil tellin' me "take the wheel" 

Back when Freekey told me rap they probably gonna make a deal 

Defying my body, I hate the way it make me feel 

If my niggas slidin', I'm slidin', I really played the field 

We got felonies but jealously can never break us 

Talked to Drizzy up in Toronto, I'm missin' hella paper 

Most of my niggas do biz chasin' money, go up north and get big 

Might come home to no crib 

We got parole on us, walk with the heat, we keep the stove on us 

NYPD just pray that I get pulled with old warrants 

If you told on us, on God, you broke the code on us 

5 in the mornin', in your momma crib with no warnin'

If you my nigga you ain't ever gotta question it 

I give you my last, I think my heart too big to measure it 

Step on the gas, I'm standin' up 'cause I could never sit 

Tryna take my niggas to all the places they never been 

If you my nigga you ain't ever gotta question it 

Step on the gas, I'm standin' up 'cause I could never sit 

Tryna take my niggas to all the places they never been 

Tryna take my niggas to all the places they never been 

Tryna take my niggas to all the places they never been 

Tryna take my niggas to all the places they never been
