Ground Up - The Usual lyrics

rate me

Okay it's midnight with my shades on, listenin' to Ray Quan

getting clear I'm never scared but shed a tear for Trayvon

Martin I be startin' all these fires get my blaze on,

Get up in my face I bet my homies leave your face gone

Cause they don't like to see me nervous, show some courtesy

A lot of people heard of me, it still hasn't occurred to me

Certainly, I realize I'm burning like a 3rd degree

But I've been shootin' for the stars, ridin' in this Mercury

Swingin' for the fences, you should leave the infield

I can see much clearer cause a feign just cleaned my windshield

it's getting really real I'll tell you how I really feel,

I stay up for the head, 'cause they look for my Achilles heel

'cause I'm working hard, hurting on my rivals

working at a restaurant so working with my idols,

I'm being honest this some movie shit, a'int it?

this is who I am and this is who I came with,

Hook:

Damn right I'm with my dudes and some broads too

if you wanna make a fuss then it's all you

yeah shot of whiskey with the weed lit

but I'm not relaxing in the least bit

Damn right I'm with my dudes and some broads too,

if you wanna make a fuss then it's all you

yeah shot a whiskey with the weed lit

but I'm not relaxing in the least bit.

Worried bout the same old same old, same old

dreaming bout that same old Range Rove' champagne go

heard you said we ain't high, homie said it ain't so

they say I sound like ice cold three thou' wow,

no disrespect but I'm better by a mile

living for the future but I'm killing shit now,

old dogs can't learn new tricks I put em' down

lookie now, look it how these rookies sound,

probably shouldn't be aloud but they steady rocking crowd

you can't see my style, come in see my style, come here be my style

that's copy and paste stay in your place, look at my face

and I stack crack records like crates

you can bump it like base, she wearing out nothing but lace

and we never went on a date, no doubt I can be your sweet escape

shawty so high she gone without the trace

and I'm feeling so fly, I should buy a fucking cape, wait.

Hook:

Damn right I'm with my dudes and some broads too

if you wanna make a fuss then it's all you

yeah shot of whiskey with the weed lit

but I'm not relaxing in the least bit

Damn right I'm with my dudes and some broads too,

if you wanna make a fuss then it's all you

yeah shot a whiskey with the weed lit

but I'm not relaxing in the least bit.

Just hope they recognize my progression

school of hard knocks now I'm the one teaching lessons

I feel I graduated at the top of my class

this cats fail 'cause they topics is trash,

I'm on top of my cash, and still barely looking over a midget shoulders

low funds is no fun I wouldn't live it over,

was built for this since Chris told em the bridge was over

used to shine us on their side, and now we're bridgin over

if that ain't progress may rest right where I stand

all I ever had to write was a plan

I swear help, I suggest you do it, but also gotta follow through

hit man be excellent with your execution

I spent the whole year searching for retribution

my new resolutions will start a revolution

but now I ain't got no time for that

high of life, puff and pass catch this lyrical context,

[Hook:]
