Don't Tread Lyrics - Singles - Duece

In the beginning, we were those kids, 

That played on the dirt fields 

But with determination, 

we came from the bottom 

and rose to the top 

we chased and grabbed 

ahold of our dreams, 

now we play on the fields 

were the grass is greenest 

and we can tell from the 

looks on their face 

when they find out what the 

dream is we chased 

they hate 

but we as a team 

have a phrase we say when 

negativity comes our way 

don't tread on this 

game took hold like the roots of a tree 

think soccer ain't a sport? 

then why'd NIKE sign me? 

cause i got on my job 

and made the game ferocious 

i was born with a drive 

i got that from no coaches 

big hulk & duece 

spittin truth in the booth 

stop drop and role 

i brings down the roof 

got nothing to lose 

and everythin to prove 

don't change the mood 

cause we done paid our dues 

best to give way 

for the USA 

now we're hot 

you might think we're a sun ray 

in over your heads 

southside, we fed 

this is life and im grinding 

until I'm dead 

Thanks to DJ Screw 

this aint friday night lights 

but i got the infrared 

yeah and you already know 

beggers on the shoes 

Chehade did the deal and 

big hulk came through 

everybody out your seat 

bob your head to this 

real recognize real 

we was bred for this 

the dream is real 

don't tread on this 

we live the dream 

don't tread on this 

everybody out your seat 

bob your head to this 

real recognize real 

we was bred for this 

the dream is real 

don't tread on this 

we live the dream 

don't tread on this 

see i'ma just do it like nike 

spit it so nicely 

when i'm done some ain't gon' like me 

i'ma try to say it politely 

so we is..... 

so i might come across a tad bit fiesty 

check my resume and see 

what i've done 

i'm official like the 

check on my AF1 

from the slums 

raised off noth'n but crumbs 

i don't want none 

and look what i've become 

ahuh ahuh im a just keep it real 

and my brother's ghetto dreams 

will be fulfilled 

and on the field 

deuce gonna show his skills 

wheel to wheel for real 

and so it feels 

my balls are real 

so home boy please 

don't tempt me 

or i'll cross you over like the 

great clint dempsey 

the rhyme is simple so 

please don't tread on this 

this is soccer and rap 

with a screwed up twist 

everybody out your seat 

bob your head to this 

real recognize real 

we was bred for this 

the dream is real 

don't tread on this 

we live the dream 

don't tread on this 

everybody out your seat 

bob your head to this 

real recognize real 

we was bred for this 

the dream is real 

don't tread on this 

we live the dream 

don't tread on this 

don't wake a sleeping giant 

unless you wanna see him pissed 

though im quick with my feet 

you aint seen the fist 

it'd be a one hitter quitter 

then class dismissed 

best a think twice before you 

try and tread on this 

games hard on the street 

cause with no shoes on their feet 

winning satisfies hunger 

they don't need to eat 

yeah we came here to learn 

but we're starting to teach 

cause we stood in the shadows 

now you can see 

haters wanna hate 

but man im feeling great 

thanks to soccer 

i'm around more ice 

then a hockey skate 

more cash than's in a bank 

no need for yall to rate 

i done cut the yard 

and threw the trash away 

in the south we got the game on lock 

more game than a game cock 

in Texas we plead block 

straight close up shop 

im gettin twisted 

steppin on rough 

you think we trippin'? 

check the stats yourself 

everybody out your seat 

bob your head to this 

real recognize real 

we was bred for this 

the dream is real 

don't tread on this 

we live the dream 

don't tread on this 

everybody out your seat 

bob your head to this 

real recognize real 

we was bred for this 

the dream is real 

don't tread on this 

we live the dream 

don't tread on this
