[Verse 1 Lil Amp:]
Here with my boy Eli, surprised I'm still alive
I've done some crazy shit think about it all da time
Shit that I've done on the fly
Shit I might have to answer for when I die
Maybe then I'll be able to ask God why
Why do some people come up and never seem to struggle
While others like myself gotta shoot and fuckin hustle
No one say's Manning too short, they just say that shit to Russell
But its feels like I'm shooting the Brees, on the corner sellin trees
I had to sell dope to get where I"m at, all that from sellin collard
Greens
Nothing goin change if I just get on my knees and complain
I just gotta go and get it each and every way I can
And hope that the Lord God will understand
Cause I'm not going back from the past I just ran from
I won't hold you to understand bruh, but this is where I came from
Some people got money and connections, I had neither but you
Can bet this
Above Average was self-built, never let money affect this
Sold dope and gangbang for 7,8 years to finally get this
And I finally get this, life how really is, harsh
Like life just laughing while throwing insults like darts
But the day always ends, regardless of how where it starts
And I'm get to my goal, the whole hundred yards
I know I've been hurt deep, so deep my heart got scars
But we Above Average, so I'm talkin five under par
[Hook: Eli]
I'll do anything, I'll do anything
I'll do anything to get to where I wanna be
[Verse 2 Lil Amp:]
I'll do anything in short of selling my soul
Not a good bargin, neither is my body as a whole
Gotta break out as soon as that old shit gets old
Let's face the truth, I've never been good at doing what was told
My life cards say won't suceed, but even then I won't fold
Life's always been dirty, but I'm not cleaning my mold
Shoutout to my niggas in jail, put em moves on hold
Soul's go quick on this market, going, going and it's sold
If the end justify the means, glad I started in the streets
Could've done a lot worse but still playing for keeps
Cause you can't make dough without the damn yeast
I was raise in the west, but born in the east
The devil is a lie and he sure can be a beast
Hands stained by the bandz surrounding my feet
I'll do anything that's to say the very least
Just like Ortiz, I won't get cheated and I never get beat
Fake niggas take a seat, 'til you're one of the elite
Man fuck the police, I'm the king so your girl on her knees
If don't like what I do, nigga you free to leave
It's not how you start it's how you finish
But that remains to be seen
They say we in a democracy but are we really free
Say we should go to college
But how's a black nigga supposed to get a degree
Trying to help my sister Bre, suppose you were in need
Not going to just let a nigga bleed
If you offered me anything, I'm not going take a plead
[Hook: Eli]
[Verse 3:YTM]
Uh, I’ll do anything for the paper
Except sell my body in anyway rather turn into vapor
I’m hear to reap the benefits not start a rap image
Don’t get this confuse with these other kids
Who think they down with the business fucc them bitches
I’m hear to get doe and go so don’t fucc with my riches
I got heart I got soul I got feelings but no fucking ceilings
High five the sky come back And make a killing
I started from dirt and gravel to unravel in amazement
See my pupils you would think I’m fucking blazing
The block is hot like Cajun so I Gotta sell that weed
Homie I got Dro just what you fucking need indeed
I hope God don’t den me to hell with Satan
Cause I know Imma be hurting and hating
I can barely survived this Gang bang thang
I’m telling my life story cuz God told me to I was born to entertain
[Lil Amp]
God help me I'm in pain,and I know I can't gain
From this dope game, but still I stay, why, I can't really say
I mean I thought life was all about getting laid, getting paid
But naw, it really wasn't, I got saved by only His saving Grace
