[Chorus: Joey Fatts]
They gon' hate you like you doin' wrong
They gon' hate you like you never tried to put 'em on
A lot of changin' faces like, what's goin' on?
These niggas two-faced, I gotta leave 'em alone
These bitches be crazy, I gotta leave 'em alone
My daughter need it all before I'm dead and gone
Gon' give this shit my all until I'm dead and gone
Forever defying odds, boy, it's set in stone
[Verse 1: Joey Fatts]
Wayne up in my headphones
Used to take the bus home
Looked up to drug dealers with [?] bodies on 100 Spokes
Knew that's how I wanna roll
One day I'll have one of those
Now I got plenty and I can go buy a hunnid more
Caravanning into the store
Pull up nigga, buy some clothes
Every time my shit drop, it's flyin' off the racks
Tryna get moms that big spot with the garden in the back
That's why this carbon got some shit attached
I can't let these niggas take me mama
I stay in my lane but I know niggas hate me mama
You see I'm stuck in my ways but niggas movin' flagrant mama, some shit never change
But to appreciate this shit you gotta know the pain
Move smart and know the game
Ball hard, take no breaks
Give a fuck what they gon' say
Already know that they gon' hate
They ain't have no faith
I was eatin' cold trays
Stressin' in the county but I knew this shit was gon' shake
Cutthroat nigga
[Chorus: Joey Fatts & Dave East]
They gon' hate you like you doin' wrong
They gon' hate you like you never tried to put 'em on
A lot of changin' faces like, what's goin' on? (Changin' faces homie)
These niggas two-faced, I gotta leave 'em alone
These bitches be crazy, I gotta leave 'em alone (Leave 'em alone huh)
My daughter need it all before I'm dead and gone
Gon' give this shit my all until I'm dead and gone (Yah)
Forever defying odds, boy, it's set in stone
[Verse 2: Dave East]
Tryna find my way, I hope that God can guide me (I hope)
Every week I'm catchin' flights, that make it hard to find me (It's hard)
These scars remind me, of the pain I endured (Damn)
Pieces cookin' in the kitchen, the smell done came through the floor (Smell that?)
For a cigarette, I watched a smoker pray to the Lord (On God)
He watched the car for five cash, he ain't make his way to the store (Where you goin'?)
Before it touched his pocket, started dancin', it made him perform
This shit the norm, we weather storms, it'll be this way 'til I'm gone (Ever)
I took plenty drunken advice and then fell in love with this life (I love it)
I am not comin' down, this shit like I'm stuck on a flight
Manifest, in the flesh, I'm the reason your kid influenced (I'm the reason)
Not a role model, just painted a picture, help you get through shit
Tuna then it's the Ruth's Chris
The mac and cheese got lobster in it
Opposition, can't believe it happened, it really shocked them niggas
Red wine, the bread toasted, I probably got some pasta with it
I can sense the hate,, my eye was twitchin', [?] hide they bitches (Hide 'em)
[Chorus: Joey Fatts]
They gon' hate you like you doin' wrong
They gon' hate you like you never tried to put 'em on
A lot of changin' faces like, what's goin' on?
These niggas two-faced, I gotta leave 'em alone
These bitches be crazy, I gotta leave 'em alone
My daughter need it all before I'm dead and gone
Gon' give this shit my all until I'm dead and gone
Forever defying odds, boy, it's set in stone
