Lyrics

Y'all don't understand, y'all want to but you don't though This ain't what I planned, this is who I am (this is who I am) This is who I am (this is who I am) I look up to Creed, I ain't saying nothing strange My feelings ain't changed (my feelings ain't changed) No no, no no, I ain't rapping though I look up to him, we got more laps to go Understand? (Nah) Y'all don't understand Pac made a nigga watch like a peephole Banger, that's my bigger brother I put it on my mother, I swear we need Each other (I swear we need each other) I'm just a real nigga talking Real talk 'til I lay up in the coffin And I'll handle my hat and I'll gamble my scratch Until I get mine back (it's just me, dog) They don't understand Why the fuck we do what we do They don't understand Why the fuck we keep it so true They don't understand Why we just don't give a fuck They don't understand When they see a nigga coming up They don't understand They don't understand, they don't understand They don't understand But I don't give a damn (no) They don't understand They don't understand, they don't understand They don't understand But I don't give a damn (no) Mission my mission, I'm in it to get it One nigga yelling "fuck the world", homie, that's how I live it Strapped up, us against the world, that's how we did it I'm like fuck 'em if they don't understand They ain't with us (they ain't with us) They ain't niggas, we them outlaw soldiers They them other niggas that be rolling with the rollers, snitch Y'all can kill my pride if you want it This shit is in my veins, my bloodstreams is on it How could you not understand a nigga like me? How could you not understand living like a G? This is who we be, I don't know about you But the shit I'm putting down on these beats, motherfucker, it's true No need to sugarcoat it or put some D-stone in it (uh-uh) Our shit is so real, that's why the streets want it Yeah, squares don't understand, that's why they hate on it I'm like fuck 'em, they ain't stopping my chips (hell no, dog) They don't understand Why the fuck we do what we do They don't understand Why the fuck we keep it so true They don't understand Why we just don't give a fuck They don't understand When they see a nigga coming up They don't understand They don't understand, they don't understand They don't understand But I don't give a damn (no) They don't understand They don't understand, they don't understand They don't understand But I don't give a damn (no) They don't understand Man, it's deeper than the music, overstand what I'm saying to ya (nigga, just listen to me) And when I die, y'all keep on mashing Makaveli in our blood, we laced with his ashes Got the mind of a militant, the heart of a soldier Got the spirit of a struggler, I know why God loving us And all the glory is his (all the glory is his) They said we couldn't but I knew we could win With my back against the wall, hands tied behind my back When you got God on your team, young outlaw king, I mean You gotta feel it, don't hate it, gotta respect it, we made it And young niggas worldwide related To some shit that I was saying from the bottom of my heart They felt like we felt, trying to get some light, we in the dark And they don't understand all the shit that we been through But if you understand, you went through something similar too Ya feel me? They don't understand Why the fuck we do what we do They don't understand Why the fuck we keep it so true They don't understand Why we just don't give a fuck They don't understand When they see a nigga coming up They don't understand They don't understand, they don't understand They don't understand But I don't give a damn (no) They don't understand They don't understand, they don't understand They don't understand But I don't give a damn (no)
