Tito Lopez - They Told Me lyrics

rate me

Uh, see... I know what this is

If you know, this is the hunger game, baby

I know it's been a minute

Please excuse my tardiness

But you know that's life as an artist

I have to sit back and collect my thoughts

And let everything together

Feels like we're winning, alright

But I came a long way, so ride with me on this one!

Living my dream, oh yeah, nigga still think you are the best

Well, I guess you live your dream

Out on my own, I'm still on cocky Balboa

But it's no movie, no winners, some niggers just lose slower

I proved down the fighter, rider and some poetic

More game than twenty three

It's twenty three and most forget it, but that shit don't bother me!

I probably be dead and buried before you all cross out..

..and I feel like my work ain't never done

Mississippi where I'm from,

Ain't nothing you can do to me,

These white folks ain't already done.

Never run, staying firm like my feet inside some...

Watch that shit begin to dry, I bet you gonna see what I'm in

I never drop the ball, bitch...

Team behind me find me on a way to make this all rich

I play like I'm the greatest cause I am

See the drama shaking, spit, like an earthquake everywhere I stand

I'm the man, mother fucker!

Chorus:

Yeah, and they told me that I couldn't do it

I was on my job, they just never knew it

And they told me I could never beat it

I already was, they just couldn't see it

And they told me I ain't had the spirit

This is God's plan, they just don't wanna hear it

Uh, and when I'm gone where I've been gone

I lost my sanity when they handed me this microphone

And if I get on without asking nobody for nothing

Why can't you do the same... like I owe you something...

Niggers know I've been a...

You're bowling, yeah, I know it boss

..and yet, you're still your soul is lost.

I'm just grinding, feet in dirt

And it's paper, I've been to work

And it's money, I need it now

Pay me that...

Oh, yeah just talking about it

Walking on water, don't shutter...

I found it, yeah, my voice is what I speak of

And I hope you hear it, yeah, right through your fucking speakers

This shit just feels so good I just don't wanna stop

Mission clearly is missionary with me on the top, yeah

Chorus:

Yeah, and they told me that I couldn't do it

I was on my job, they just never knew it

And they told me I could never beat it

I already was, they just couldn't see it

And they told me I ain't had the spirit

This is God's plan, they just don't wanna hear it
