Lil' Keke - Understand lyrics

(feat. Big Hawk, Grit Boys)

[Hook x2]

Try to understand, all the shit that I've been through

Try to understand, I got a life to live too

Try to understand, I got problems but I feel you

Try to understand, I'm a man I got bills too

[Pretty Todd]

I never give the devil the pleasure, to ever take a fella off of his level

Still, everything's right on schedule

I had my personal vendettas, but I solved em

Cause all that drama, could stop us from getting dollas

I take advice from one, and that's my mama

I made her a promise, my word is my honor

Cause sure enough, I'm a grown up

Just turned 21 there's money to get, and I'm trying to get me some

So get your ass out my path, 'fore you get mashed

Put a whole new career, in your new acts relapse

What we have, is organized grinding

In a mind of real niggaz, our vision's a clear picture

I'm still with you, you ain't lost me I hope I ain't lost you

I just, had to get that out fool

And let niggaz know, a lil' something about school

And struggle in this concrete, jungle I walk through

[Scooby]

I am dog, a grown man dog

You don't understand, the plan at hand dog

You see the potential, I mash to get cake

Hustle Presidential, like a Bad Azz Mix Tape

Say I live what I speak, so you best believe

I grind to what's left for me, is left in these streets

Listen up man, I mean with figgas

I don't know if it's just me, but all I see is green pictures

And I don't bother, with these in between niggaz

Loyalty is my back bone, we the team nigga

G-R-I-T-B-O

Y-dolla sign, chump cause we need do'

Respect is power, and power is money

Money is time, money is the reason that I rhyme and grind

Might I remind you, that I'm designed to

Move anything out the way, of getting what's mine fool

[H.A.W.K.]

See the type of nigga I am, I give a good damn

Bout anything, other than fam

Just ten years ago, when I didn't have flow

Before You Already Know, when I didn't have do'

My mom's oldest seed, I had to take the lead

Dreams of making believe, became make believe

We was boys but we now men, ask once then you'll ask again

How many times, will I have to lend

You on the outside, looking in

You don't know where I done been, do anything to get in

I don't know how, some of you think

But soon as you blink, they here on the first and fifteenth

Now see I got bills too, feel me like you I feel you

God damn, I got a life too

Got a kid, and a wife too

And how the hell they gon eat, if I still gotta feed you

[Lil' Keke]

Follow the vision, and we can walk the road clear

I hustled and struggled, it was another long year

I never had a brother, so I turned to the thugs

No unconditional love, cause we ain't the same blood

Tough guys, most y'all niggaz still bluffing

I'm thinking while I'm puffing, I don't owe you niggaz nothing

I'm changing my ways, I'm living my life new

Nigga get your own thang, and see what your hustle do

I done heard it all nigga, guess I'm chasing a dream

Got a big family to feed, and I'm the coach of that team

If you the shit best believe, all the flies they love it

When the plan going bad, everybody say fuck it

And you recognize game, when the pain is felt

And it's one thang fa sho, I ain't gon lie to myself

So you busta ass niggaz, can't see night from day

Understand black man, I got bills to pay

[Hook x2]
