Bilingual
Sun hit the window, hands still ache from last night's shift
Haulin' bricks on Miller Street, another day begins
My shovel scrapes the asphalt, sweat drips in the dust
Diggin' trenches for the city, gotta earn my trust
Know what I mean, know that heat
Taught by the streets, each cut a chapter
Straight facts, no cap (No cap, no cap)
Peep this, yeah, you don't know what this life ask for
That's the real spill, shawty, need the straight facts and grimy hands
Ain't no sweet talk, just grit in the drill
Each crease a teachin', never forget it
Think back to them nights, eyes wide open
Head spinnin' wild, remember bein' ten
Watchin' mama count up tips, then I had to work
Felt the weight on my young hip
These calloused hands, they built a roof above our head
From scraps and broken promises, we made our own beds
Learn to trust the hustle flow, yeah, that's mandatory (Mandatory)
They be cappin', but I peep the fake
These meds don't front, they just speak facts
Peep this, yeah, you don't know what this life ask for
That's the real spill, shawty, need the straight facts and grimy hands
Ain't no sweet talk, just grit in the drill
Each crease a teachin', never forget it (Never forget it)
