Shift Lyrics by Jose Xavier

Fade001

2018

[Hook]
Watching Shottas with my nigga Kwai
Give a damn, give a damn
Give a damn, give a damn what you niggz bout’
I be rolling through the city with my motherfuckin’ niggas like you know we in the building
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
Look, these are the confessions of a 225 nigga
Look I’m just tryna do this shit for me and my niggas
Never saw a problem in the way that I been living
I been stressing on my life and not reflecting on decisions
And that’s probably where it all went wrong
But listen, I’m just tryna be as honest to myself
Geeking off the drugs, it’s like I’m dying for the help
But I’m about to pull the plug and tell him I’ma need a gram
Just know that it’s a couple things of lately I been going through
A couple niggas acting like they bullet proof
Think they forgetting where I live and I’m only just a kid
So I got everything but time just to see it through
It’s all bad when you trying to get a profit
Been focused on the music, 9-5 is not a option
I know I gotta make it, I’m just tired of the waiting
See deceit in your position, so it’s mines for the taking
Nigga fuck that

[Hook]
Watching Shottas with my nigga Kwai
Give a damn, give a damn
Give a damn, give a damn what you niggz bout’
I be rolling through the city with my motherfuckin’ niggas like you know we in the building
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
I wonder what’s the reason everybody say I’m changing but it’s something that I just don’t see
It’s all the music and I’m focused on the family
So a nigga with the gimmicks, no I just can’t be
I hear the lies within your raps, you say you get a lot of dough
Look I’ma keep it on the hush but nigga you and me know
That that is not the way you living
You the furthest from a nigga that be out there trying to get it
Never missing a O
Look we been at it for a long time
And I’ll be still spitting with a dollar to my name
Don’t care about the money, niggas in it for the fame
A fucking dime a dozen, all the rappers sound the same
Two hundred years later and we still wearing chains
I had to look around and then I learned that nothing changed
But as long as it’s growing, I’ll be riding till I see the thread showing
No more running through the streets, watch a nigga speed on em’
Then I’m ghost

[Hook]
Watching Shottas with my nigga Kwai
Give a damn, give a damn
Give a damn, give a damn what you niggz bout’
I be rolling through the city with my motherfuckin’ niggas like you know we in the building
Yeah, yeah
