Life Happens Quickly Lyrics by Nappy Roots

0

[Verse 1]
Boom, life happens quickly
From a newborn to near pushing fifty (Yeah)
Wish I could have all my kinfolks with me (Uh)
Tryna be free, bein' poor restricts me (Oh)
Toot your own horn, don't blow too quickly (Yeah)
As I young kid I let info miss me (Uh)
Now I make it up, got info? Hit me (Yeah)
Straight from [?] ville to them folks [?]
It was all a dream, and that's quote from Biggie
Dreaming of Louisville, please don't pinch me
Real recognize real and you don't convince me
Will still come around, you gon' turn and miss me
Ain't no walking round me, you can't circumvent me
Shooters still got it like Dirk Nowitzki
Put you in a blunt like a herb dispensary
We haul you up outta here like we work for Penkse
[Chorus]
[?]
[Verse 2]
Uh, I don't care what you own
I'm just tryna do me while I smoke this jawn
I ain't tryna small talk, nigga, what's the point
Life's too short, somewhere I was goin'
Mindin' my business, nine in the morning
Before I yawn, thank the Lord for this moment
You only live once, got no time for phony
I'm just a microphone addict writing songs in my attic
Always keep it nappy 'til I have a heart attack
Only fact I recite, no static the automatic
That's word to Greg Nice, it ain't worth the price
If you have to ask twice, then I'ma have to add it
Nickel and diamond, that's niggas is average
Fuck your two cents, I'm cut from a different fabric
Wreap what you sow, see the thread, it's unwravelling
Bring it from the abdomen and sling it like a javelin
Shit's so extravagant, [?]
Two-steppin' to violins and mandolins
Where the drums at? Where my West Africans?
Plug me in, lit like a halogen
But don't mind me, 'cause I'm just blues travelling
With a bunch of rapper friends, headin' up to Maryland
Mm-mm, [?], if you won't let us all in, then fuck your establishment
[Chorus]
[?]
[Verse 3: GRIP]
This the one, yeah
They still snorin', Jack (Yeah)
I'ma make it so no them boys can't afford to nap
I'm bored with rap, but still can't ignore the fact
That my pen is iller like a Florida map, uh
Best believe the checks gon' get collected
Stackin' up for my investments, shit is Tetris
Fools who wanna be reckless got a death wish
Please don't end up neckless for a necklace
Ambidextrous, I'm cookin' up with the left wrist
Mwah, chef's kiss, this is breakfast
Yes, this the G to the R to the I to the P
He spit the bars, make a blind nigga see
Think really hard for colidin' with me
Got G's in the squad that'll slide for the free
The maestro, I'm who they tryna be
They spit my flow, I should charge a finder's fee
Like woah, my throat where the diamonds be
Stray Society, we a dynasty
Bitch, I been on the road like Meineke
And it's still middle finger to sobriety
If I go then I won't go quietly
You gon' die with me, I got the fire with me
I done seen too many niggas die violently
Whole Eastside gon' ride with me, GRIP
