Something Outta Nothin’

[Verse 1]
See this the story of a lower class knucklehead
Who never listened to his folks or what them teachers said
He started fuckin' up and wylin’ as an adolescent
His family tried to steer him right but he ain't get the message
He started runnin' through them streets with the wrong crowd
The police watch him, they can’t wait to lock his ass down
Now everybody starts to love him when he comes around
'Cause he's got money by the bundle, funky by the pound
Yeah, (Yeah) that's what you call the fast life
He kept a Taurus nine for the boys who didn't act right
Naw, (Naw) and no he ain't gon' ask twice
So if you step wrong then tonight gon' be your last night
Damn, he’s just the product of a cold game
And once he made his first thousand bucks he never was the same
So pray for change mama, please ’cause he needs it bad
He's on the verge of losin’ everything he ever had

[Chorus]
'Cause ain't nobody gave me nothin', me nothin’
And when my back's to the wall like fall or bitch I stand up and hustle, I'ma hustle
And I'ma fight like a dog I can promise y'all will never see me runnin', see me runnin'
'Cause it's the law where I'm from, bitch you gotta make somethin' outta nothin', outta nothin'

[Verse 2]
Yeah, (Yeah) he's makin' somethin' outta nothin' 'cause that's all he knows
He traded in them crooked streets for the studio
And now these people nod they head when they hear his song
And when he hops up on them stages they all sing along
He came a long way from sellin' dope and breakin' laws
He's on that road state to state because the money calls
And all his fans can relate 'cause he don't hide his flaws
He's just a hustler from the country, listen to him talk
Yeah, they say he's just like me
One of the realest out the city, shit he just might be
And if you real like me then you appreciate that
'Cause ain't too many people left out here who built like that
Naw, (Naw) he's workin' hard and he's stayin' true
He'll never change 'cause he's representin' me and you
And if you've ever had the struggle you gon' feel him too
So turn this up a little while you doin' what you do
Yeah

[Chorus]
'Cause ain't nobody gave me nothin', me nothin'
And when my back's to the wall like fall or bitch I stand up and hustle, I'ma hustle
And I'ma fight like a dog I can promise y'all will never see me runnin', see me runnin'
'Cause it's the law where I'm from, bitch you gotta make somethin' outta nothin', outta nothin'

[Bridge]
I'm makin' somethin' outta nothin', I hit the ground runnin'
It don't matter if you're with me either way because I'm comin'
I got, I gotta grind (Grind) even if they frontin'
Now I'm winnin' while they in there so they can't tell me nothin'
I'm makin' somethin' outta nothin', (Nothin') you better know that I'm comin' (Comin')
I gotta grind full time, (Time) even though they front
Said they I'm winnin' while they in there so they can't tell me nothin' naw, naw

[Chorus]
'Cause ain't nobody gave me nothin', me nothin'
And when my back's to the wall like fall or bitch I stand up and hustle, I'ma hustle
And I'ma fight like a dog I can promise y'all will never see me runnin', see me runnin'
'Cause it's the law where I'm from, bitch you gotta make somethin' outta nothin', outta nothin'

[Outro]
Outta nothin'
Somethin' outta nothin', outta nothin'
Outta nothin'
