How It Be Lyrics by Mental K

Intent 2 Supply

2014

[Intro: Mental K]
Safety systems armed
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
(Dutchman)
I'mma take a look and roll with the crooks
But you 'gon need a pass to roll through my hood
I do both sides, New Park to Tulse Hill
The grind will never stop, but your pulse will
ATL, I'm about this life
About the lizzy, I'm about the grind
I tell the Gs, "I ain't about tonight
I'm still serving light and dark, ask Gunna Grimes"

[Verse 1: Gunna Grimes]
Tulse Hill, where do I start? (Tulse)
Couple dead homies but I still got dargs (RIP)
No more than 15, but we still got heart
In this ghetto life, niggas better play their part (Play your position)
But it's kinda hard all alone
Best friend in the grave, but I stay in my zone (Zone)
Money on my mind and my hеart's turned cold
If you know Ments, he stays bad to thе bone (Real)
And most of my niggas in jail (Free 'em)
Dim's up in Wal', while the rest are in Felts
When Zac died, you wouldn't know how I felt (Nah)
I'm a double G, I even got it on my belt
And feds locked it down to a minimal (Minimal)
GBH got my niggas seeing prison walls
Stay low and make Ps, it ain't difficult (Nah)
'Cuz I'm surrounded by green like a tennis court

[Chorus: Gunna Grimes]
It's like, look into my life, tell me what you see? (What you see?)
I see a cold-hearted killer with the heat (What else?)
The heat got him obbo, now he wanted by police (Aargh)
Police give you grief, they never tell you how it be
C-D-E-F, I'm a G (I'm a G)
Some say I'm paro 'cuz I'm always smoking weed
One time for my fallen soldiers, rest in peace (RIP)
Ambitions of a hustler, just tryna chase his dream (Real life)

[Verse 2: Mental K]
Look into my life and tell me, what's the purpose? (What's the purpose?)
Up early morning for the money, linking workers (Ring-ring-ring)
I spit my life through these verses (Aargh)
Armed jakes running in my mum's had me nervous (Oh shit)
A lot's happened since my last take (Last take)
No bail, had the govs calling out my last name (Aargh)
Came up the hard way (Uh), still flippin' class A
Fuckin' with my money, I'll press buttons like an arcade (La-la-lah-lah)
It's kinda fucked how I live (How I live)
I'm loading up the 9, I'll put 6 in the clip (Grrah)
I'm riding on your strip, I'll put 6 in your wig (Grrah)
I'll ride for my brothers, but I live for my kid ([?])
Real niggas relate (Sho)
And I'm still selling drugs in council estates (What you on?)
I'm still with them thugs that are bussin' off trays (OJ)
And free my nigga Trapa, hope he busses the case (Free Trapa)

[Chorus: Gunna Grimes]
It's like, look into my life, tell me what you see? (What you see?)
I see a cold-hearted killer with the heat (What else?)
The heat got him obbo, now he wanted by police (Aargh)
Police give you grief, they never tell you how it be
C-D-E-F, I'm a G (I'm a G)
Some say I'm paro 'cuz I'm always smoking weed
One time for my fallen soldiers, rest in peace (RIP)
Ambitions of a hustler, just tryna chase his dream (Real life)
It's like, look into my life, tell me what you see? (What you see?)
I see a cold-hearted killer with the heat (What else?)
The heat got him obbo, now he wanted by police (Aargh)
Police give you grief, they never tell you how it be
C-D-E-F, I'm a G (I'm a G)
Some say I'm paro 'cuz I'm always smoking weed
One time for my fallen soldiers, rest in peace (RIP)
Ambitions of a hustler, just tryna chase his dream (Real life)
