Ice Berg - Just Another Nigga lyrics
rate meI’m just another nigga
In the eyes of some I’m a superhero
In the eyes of others
I’m just another nigga
And no matter what they say
This shit is still about color
I’m just another nigga
No matter how hard you try to beat around it
It still gonna come back to color
Try to make it out the situation I was placed in
Something they call the hood I was paged in
Daddy ain’t have a business prepare us onto
But he gave me some street smarts to have some money
And I can show you how to drop a lil’ cut on the grow
I could show you how to drop that 14 in the water
I’m talking I95 with the Y, arm trafficking in this shit gonna get me life
Sometimes I gotta assist to my rise for the sake of my son
And I know I can’t hide without him taking my loads
But I’mma show him every gun and tell him “these take lives”
And just ‘cause they say they love you that don’t mean they wife
You’re just like me, you’re blessed ‘cause you got a good daddy
And still in the streets, God forbid something happen
If them crackers come and get me or them killers catch me slipping
They won’t even give a fuck ‘cause I’m just another nigga
I’m just another nigga
Least that what they see me as
I’m just another nigga out here whose last name ain’t worth shit
I met a pretty girl out the hood and made legit
Started all flamboyant saying fuck it, I’mma spit
But somewhere in between I started selling that shit
Number one, my homies showed me how to cook crack
He was talking to himself, saying nigga, bring it back
Ever since that night I vowed to never go broke
The African - American way of life, I sell coke
But everything changed, nothing that easy most of these niggas jacking other people
Matter fact, a lot of niggas who was strapping, they eating
So niggas trying rapping and I ain’t working form them either
We found a way to maintain, they can’t hold us down forever
It got harder to be, tryina hold us down together
But we don’t move like that, instead we move like crack
We gotta get up and grind and go and choose our path
And stay at it ‘cause I’ve seen plenty move right back
I could be the key to some of these niggas getting richer
But they don’t see it like that ‘cause I’m just another nigga
Damn, I’m just another nigga
Man, shit, I’m just another nigga
