Songs You Love If You Love Nerds 

Love Stinks, So Here Are 15 Anti-Valentine's Day Songs 

Watch Cardi B Join James Corden For Carpool Karaoke 

Relate to ya 

I can't if you's a fake nigga 

Where level 4 in the state is what your mistakes get ya 

Rap niggas they just wanna double date with you 

Twitpic and show these hoes that they affiliate with you 

Labels used to treatin rappers like a slave, nigga 

Starvin artist "just be happy with your fame nigga" 

Shit changed, now it's such a different game 

All the niggas like myself is controlling everything 

If you, pay attention see exactly what I mean 

Fucc the middleman, I said that in 2003 

Was 18, White Lincoln, chrome feet 

Black .40 was my pillow, everynight I go to sleep 

Grown niggas treat me like they OG 

Holdin on to every word that the tiny loc speaks 

I had a vision nobody else could see 

Sold my shit to D-Mac, a little less than 10 Gs 

Brought my grocery bag of cash back to Blacc Sam 

He matched a nigga, next day we went to Sam Ash 

We bought a pro tools and a microphone 

Studio was far from plush but the lights was on 

Couple hunned thousand stashed at my momma's home 

Real estate in Atlanta but ain't nobody know 

Mac 11s in the safe, hidden in the floor 

My bro did it like nobody that I've ever known 

Screens on every wall with 16 camera angles 

Double pane bullet proof glass pushin past the haters 

Cuban links and rolexes 'fo the check from Epic 

This industry ain't got like us but they gone respect it 

Built the label up from money we was savin up 

No details til the Statue of Limitations up 

Couple niggas got flipped tryna play with us 

The demonstrations speak loud so I ain't sayin much 

Was a charismatic nigga, I don't play as much 

Cos life is real when you live it in a place like us 

School pictures crackin smiles, now my face is stuck 

Shellshocked to see how much they really hated us 

Couldn't keep a kind heart, get yo hatred up 

Streets smarts, nigga get yo information up 

Watching Belly, smokin blunts, take Jamaican puffs 

One day I'mma have a house and car like Jamaican cuz 

Credits roll, back to stress pounds breakin up 

Had to fight before we hustled and it made us tough 

Early 90s neighbors rooster used to wake us up 

Mama had a bucket and a shack but we ain't make a fuss 

Blue Cutlass, no license, .380 tucked 

96 Caprice 'Bolt Da Fatts' was savin up 

They gettin packed out if niggas try fade with us 

Crenshaw and Slauson, True Story, Zo play the drums
