City of God Lyrics by Cormega

Mega

2010

[Intro: Sheek Louch]:
Ha, this shit knockin'!
Mega, what up, nigga? Woo!
It's that fly shit right here
Sheek Louch, I got you, God
Don Gorilla shit, D-Block, ayo (D-BLOCK!)
[Verse 1: Sheek Louch]:
We was baggin' up cracks when niggas was watchin' Betamax (Uhuh)
Shorty head on my lap, smokin' tryna relax (Uhuh)
Way before the tracks and all the Bad Boy plaques
Some niggas passed away, couple homies in a max (Damn)
Trump, I been knew he wasn't fuckin' with us blacks (Uhuh)
Pull up on 5th Ave. and let a fuck up sacks (Damn, nigga)
Brown licker in the crystal glass
50,000 on my wrist, my little shooter pull that pistol fast (Shoot outside)
Razor cuts wrapped around a nigga face and shit (Hold that)
Staples, tongue gone ain't taste the shit (Woo!)
For the fame these IG rappers chasin' it
I came in though, nigga, ask Ma$e and shit (Uhuh)
I'vе seen the quality of Hip Hop drop (For real)
You ain't evеn gotta rap, just mumble somethin', and you gon' pop (So sick)
Silverback Gorilla, I put one in yo' hat
From Yonkers to Queens, nigga, what's fuckin' wit' that? (Uhh!)
[Chorus: Cormega x2]:
We were taught never sleep yet we followed our dreams
Failure ain't a option indeed
Real recognize real, we did hard on the street
Say less, listen more, that's how you succeed
[Verse 2: Cormega]:
Up early acceptin' the blessin' of life
My adjustment from streets to makin' records is progression
From adolescence to a man predestined to be tested
He channeled out aggression in a manner that's poetic
For all my peoples sentenced behind the wall stressin'
Moral indiscretions hopin' your cores accepted
The belly of the beast says it's deep fall from Heaven
Freeze [?], Lord, I will breathe laws forever
Love is blind yet I see false affection
As a character floor, I detour deception
Art imitates life, these bars should mirror
Something great, MEGA the definition apparent
The worst days are measures of strength being tested
Temptations of weakness with faith it's a present
Pain and regret can't be greater than the pleasure
Success at anyone's expenses of failure
[Chorus: Cormega x2]:
We were taught never sleep yet we followed our dreams
Failure ain't a option indeed
Real recognize real, we did hard on the street
Say less, listen more, that's how you succeed
