Maintainin’ Lyrics by GRIP

Porch

2016

[Chorus]
Me and all my bros straight hangin' (Straight hangin')
Junkie's lurkin' 'cause the dope man stay slangin' (Stay slangin')
Fools twistin' fingers, yeah them niggas gang bangin' (Gang bangin')
Everybody doin' somethin', we just out here maintainin' (Ma-Ma-Maintainin')
My nigga we just tryna' maintain (Tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain, tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain)
Keep it G and never change lanes
We just tryna' maintain (Tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain, tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain)
I hope you niggas on the same thing

[Verse 1]
Now let me take you back to when I had an '83 Impala
Just got paid so I got a couple dollars
Pullin' up inside the cab, 'bout to grab a fit
Seen a nigga that I know, talked a lil' shit
Leavin' out the mall, hit up Ant, that's the brodie
Tryna' put somethin' in the air, know he got the dodi
Aquemini, bumpin' number twelve, "SpottieOttie"
Pulled up to my nigga crib, sippin' on a Forty
Smoked out the garage, tryna come up with a plan
On how to put some monies in our motherfuckin' hands
Already copped the pounds, sold every last gram
Now right back where we started is exactly where we stand
We even hit a lick, but that shit ain't go as planned
Never touch crack, can't get caught servin' yams
'Cause nigga I be damned if I see the chain gang
We just out here, we just out here tryna' maintain

[Chorus]
Me and all my bros straight hangin' (Straight hangin')
Junkie's lurkin' 'cause the dope man stay slangin' (Stay slangin')
Fools twistin' fingers, yeah them niggas gang bangin' (Gang bangin')
Everybody doin' somethin', we just out here maintainin' (Ma-maintainin')
My nigga we just tryna' maintain (Tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain, tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain)
Keep it G and never change lanes
We just tryna' maintain (Tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain, tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain)
I hope you niggas on the same thing

[Verse 2]
Now I'm a little older with an '01 Impala
Ain't shit changed 'cause the motive still the dollar
Niggas four deep, straight hangin' with the bros
Ridin' through the AUC, lookin' for the hoes
We just gettin' high, tryna' balance out the lows
Talkin' hella shit, even kicked a couple flows
Pulled up on a bitch, yeah that body looked right
Twelve got behind us, flashed the blue lights
Damn, Mr. Officer, you're fuckin' up my buzz
Why'd you pull me over sir? He said, "Just because"
Sat us on the curb and said, "Don't nobody run"
Searchin' through my car for the drugs and the guns
Found a lil' roach, took our ass straight to jail
Just another Saturday in the ATL
Moral of the story, don't be chasin' after hoes
Better chase this money nigga, you know how it goes

[Chorus]
Me and all my bros straight hangin' (Straight hangin')
Junkie's lurkin' 'cause the dope man stay slangin' (Stay slangin')
Fools twistin' fingers, yeah them niggas gang bangin' (Gang bangin')
Everybody doin' somethin', we just out here maintainin' (Ma-maintainin')
My nigga we just tryna' maintain (Tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain, tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain)
Keep it G and never change lanes
We just tryna' maintain (Tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain, tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain)
I hope you niggas on the same thing
