Hip Hop - August Alsina

I came from drop tops and old school Chevy's

D**e boys rolling through shiting on ya heavy

Just came in the trunk beating down your block

Only 4 years old and Biggie got shot

I remember playing on the block hanging on the block

Young niggas slanging on the block getting off them rocks

Now we living better now Gucci sweater now

Weather still getting colder we could change the weather now

But I

Came up in criminal days

Living these criminal ways what can I say

Hugging the block every day

Grinding and making a way

And that I pray for better days

That it don't be the same tomorrow

Now I celebrate my sorrows with this bottle

And say

Hip-Hop hey Hip-Hop hey

I pray for more better days

Hip-Hop hey Hip-Hop hey

I know that I can feel change

Hip-Hop hey Hip-Hop hey

I pray for more better days

Hip-Hop hey Hip-Hop hey

I know that I can feel change

Everything good but everything bad

Mama always said show thanks for what you have

Boy never forget to realise your bad

Just go up and grind you if you let it

Now I'm out here tryna get it really out here tryna get it

Always knew that I would make it maybe it was so prophetic

Cause I came from the bottom and the humbless beginnings

From the youngest ni**a grinding to the youngest ni**a wining

Came up in criminal days

Living these criminal ways what can I say

Hugging the block every day

Grinding and making a way

And that I pray for better days

That it don't be the same tomorrow

Now I celebrate my sorrows with this bottle

And say

Hip-Hop hey Hip-Hop hey

I pray for more better days

Hip-Hop hey Hip-Hop hey

I know that I can feel change

Hip-Hop hey Hip-Hop hey

I pray for more better days

Hip-Hop hey Hip-Hop hey

I know that I can feel change

Fore you die you make your mark and reach new levels

Want the bread want the diamonds and the bezels

And if these b**ches that you want have several

Just gotta know lotta sh*t's temporary

It won't last no no it won't last no

Meaning it til' here

Next thing you know it's all gone

That's why I been on my crazy outchea

Long as I grind better days are near

Came up in criminal days

Living these criminal ways what can I say

Hugging the block every day

Grinding and making a way

And that I pray for better days

That it don't be the same tomorrow

Now I celebrate my sorrows with this bottle

And say

Hip-Hop hey Hip-Hop hey

I pray for more better days

Hip-Hop hey Hip-Hop hey

I know that I can feel change

Hip-Hop hey Hip-Hop hey

I pray for more better days

Hip-Hop hey Hip-Hop hey

I know that I can feel change
