Konvict
Yeah, yeah-yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah
Woah-oh-oh, woah-woah-woah
Yeah, yeah-yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah
Yeah (Super)
Ayo, doin' the death dance is a regular tango
It ain't the Star-Spangled (T-Dot)
It's where a lot of dreams get mangled
It's the best place in the world, but watch my angle (Yeah)
The evil that kids do is the evil that men spit (Yeah)
The cards that I play is not the ones I was dealt with (Brr)
The guns that they bust ain't the ones that they make
Anybody talkin' the opposite I see is a fake (Come on)
It's hard to get a loan (Come on), easy to get a nine (Yeah)
Hard to get a deal, but easy to keep lyin' (Huh?)
On one hand, we expose reality (Woo)
Part of me exploit the charity decoys (Come on)
Tax write-offs, yet we continue to devoid
Persona, I'm a product of a lot of questionable conduct (Yeah)
I shake the hands of those who kill or be killed
And took shots for society's ills (Oh)
Burn, Hollywood, burn 'til the check got big enough (Oh, oh, oh)
Pop a couple pills when the kids don't sit enough (Oh, oh, oh)
Nappy, A.D.D., I call it PS3
I'm holdin' tight to my family tree, ya simme? (Yeah)
No matter what the world throw at my mug, I find a way
Still I rise, still I rise (Still I rise)
You know the streets, they got me
I hate when killers stop me
It might be a different story, but still I rise
To my people that hold me down, we all we got (All we got)
Me and my family, we all we got (All we got)
To my people that hold me down, we all we got
We all we got, we all we got (All we got, all we got)
Yeah, I got in this for the music, I ain't for the blogs
And internet thugs, look at my mug
(I hate this nigga, I hate him)
Niggas ain't grow up yet, they forty-
Two, talkin' 'bout they bust slugs
Stevie Wonder ain't hold no heat (Nope)
Diana Ross ain't walkin' the beat
You think Queens got beef in the street? (Hehe)
They come from the same hoods as us
Back in the day, they had more in they way
Segregation, alienation, nigga, it's burnin', protected by lawmen
Killin' niggas was common (Yeah
Yeah), plenty of house bombin' (Yeah)
We walkin' around in life like all we got's entertainment (Oh, oh, oh)
And basketball palmin' (That's right)
My fam came from a third-world island
Where they laugh at what you call wildin' (Hahaha)
So don't be surprised when I ain't in all the drama on your DVD
I'm holdin' tight to my family tree, ya simme? (Oh, oh, oh)
No matter what the world throw at my mug, I find a way
Still I rise, still I rise (Still I rise)
You know the streets, they got me
I hate when killers stop me (Yeah)
It might be a different story, but still I rise (Ooh, girl)
To my people that hold me down, we all we got (All we got)
Me and my family, we all we got (All we got, oh)
To my people that hold me down, we all we got (Oh)
We all we got (Hey), we all we got (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
Yeah, I believe
No matter what the world may throw at me
Still I rise, still I rise
Ayo, can't focus on the hocus pocus (Nope)
Talk to me, we Konvicts, on fire, the streets took us
I came to a fork in the road
Picked it up and now I'm eatin' good life ร la mode (Yeah)
My first night bubblin' in Dublin, the real Dublin
I looked around, then I looked at the sky
I didn't ask God why (Nope), I gave him a wink
Drank my sin 'til he brought it all up, what you think? (Haha)
While Rock City was writin' for Nicole
I was in the cold, treatin' show money like gold (Yep)
Konvict charm with no Konvict charm
Family first 'til they cut off my arm (Yeah)
Kanye singin', "Dear Mama," ain't a thought of my own
And I still didn't pick up the phone (I'm out)
I guess we all think we exempt 'til it happens to you
We don't attempt 'til it happens to you
I love you, mama (Yeah)
No matter what the world throw at my mug, I find a way
Still I rise, still I rise (Still I rise, still I rise)
You know the streets, they got me (Yeah)
I hate when killers stop me (Yeah, yeah)
It might be a different story, but still I rise
To my people that hold me down, we all we got (We all we got)
Me and my family, we all we got (I said all we got)
To my people that hold me down, we all we got (All we)
We all we got (All we), we all we got (All we)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Whatever
