Before You Grow Lyrics

(Intro)
Sample: If you have to hurt, before grow
And everybody knows

(Trav: Gotta struggle man, y'know, yeah, yo)

(Verse 1: Trav)
Everybody know (erry'body know)
Niggas nervous since we stepped on the scene (Team Arliss, man)
My weapons is dirty, My record is clean (let's go)
The words I'm speakin', these birds is creepin' (I know)
I know that anything that come too easy ain't worth keepin' (ain't worth it)
I know you gotta think first, then talk (I know that, man)
I know you gotta crawl first, then walk
And I know that even though shit ain't quite right, (at ain't right)
At the end of every dark tunnel, therе's a bright light
Wann' bubble, double the top salary, you don't know how to strugglе
Can't handle prosperity, (uhhh)
Streets wanna marry me
Been had pull (I been had pull)
My glass was half empty, now it's half full
And I'm a mad bull
Kept them ratchets
Only promise life made me was death and taxes (that's it)
It told me I had to hurt first, then grow
But I'm an Arliss nigga and err'body know (erry'body know, man, Team Arliss)

(Chorus)
Sample: If you have to hurt, before grow
And everybody knows (2x)

(Verse 2: T. Waters)
Yeahh, Ayy
T. Waters, Team Arliss
Been through it all! (you know, struggle)

Na na na
In the past, I learned to take the good with the bad (yeahh)
Home, my ass wishin' for things I didn't have (y'know)
It was there, in my grasp, but still, I couldn't grab
Just window shoppin', touch and put it back
Basketball game, I was hella good at that (swishh)
A-game too, but my grades didn't match (nahh)
So now I'm sittin back in a old fitted hat
Spent my last on a 50 pack, finna' get it back
Oh, did I mention rap? I was spittin' crack
'That's that new Waters? Nigga rewind that' (rewind that)
That bein' that, can't get a contract
Besides that, can't live where my mom at
She said (get out)
All I do is play PS2 (you know)
Cut school, sip purple, bumpin' DJ Screw (yeahhh)
I couldn't get a job (nope!)
Not cuz I couldn't work (nope!)
Because I wouldn't work
(I guess I had to hurt)

(Chorus)
Sample: If you have to hurt, before grow
And everybody knows (2x)

(Verse 3: St. Raw)
Fuck that, the hurt ain't nothin' (hurt ain't nothin', man)
It's the snakes and the jakes, you gotta watch for (watch em')
Them unmarked bills, this what you hold the block for
So nigga sit on that crate, and pump rocks, pump pot
Til' you sit on that cake (get it)
It's as easy as this
Every time a fiend came for a fix
It got us closer to breezin a 6
We kept re-in' them bricks
Stood on the grind, I'm still in the mix
With some rugers tryna dodge the pain (you know)
Grey Goose and haze, on cloud nine, tryna dodge the fame (yup)
Look, cops still pursuin' us, niggas plot to shoot at us, (but)
But time is money, and beef was never new to us
So we could cock and aim, (ch-ch)
Be it 3 in the morn' kick in your door, inf dot ya brain (you fucked up, nigga)
Move out wit ya stash the same, nigga it's Arliss (whoo!)
A hunned guns, a hunned bundles of 'caine
On more corners than Verizon, mane
Everybody knows

(Chorus)
Sample: If you have to hurt, before grow
And everybody knows (2x)

(Outro)
Ya better tell him, Mario
