Swerve Lyrics by TheColorGrey

For What It’s Worth

2018

[Intro]
Ayo, ayo, ayo fuck all these niggas man
I'm telling you, fuck all these niggas man
What, what, what am I gon' do in there
Around all you fake asses, punk asses?
Nigga I'm outta here
Haha, I'm just playing
No, I'm not playing

[Verse 1]
I'll take another shot here we go again
Only this time not to numb the pain
I'm feeling real good, it's been a minute though
But that will never make me less cynical (oh no, no)
I never leave my lane but I'm well aware
If I'm tryna masked with what's in (?)
Taste of the better life it's bitter-sweet
But oh lord, I can let it touch my inner peace
Fuck with a nigga not domming it down for no one
Still underrated you want me to care about your emotions
No sir, too many people vision lacking preaches
They wanna play the game when they should be up on the bleachers
But each and every one of us is here for a reason
But we don't always end up on the spot, we should be ceded though
Too many lames up in the game shouldn't have they position
They talk a lot but I don't listen boy you know I gotta

[Chorus]
Swerve, Oh
That's just the way to go
Swerve, yeah
That's just the way to go
Swerve, Oh
That's just the way to go, swerve
I can not relate to they beings
Tell 'em
I ain't, I ain't, no I ain't with it
I ain't, I ain't, no I ain't with it
I ain't, I ain't, no I ain't with it
Swerve, yeah
That's just the way to go

[Verse 2]
And thanks to this everlasting monologue
I ain't never have to see a cartologue
But some of us grew up to be criminals
Criminals that once were my niggas though (no, no)
Convinced that in this system they can never thrive
Living on the block tryna stay alive
And even if that shit there is pr'bably true
For me that just wasn't a good enough excuse
See my mentality harsher than that reality
Became the smartest in the room so I was outtie
Walked the path that never had been paved by nobody
Before me this yellow brick rose still being smelling brand new
Guess I prefer them in a different color
Sometimes had wondered what would've happened if I'd followed Them nigga and never had the courage to disperse
I could've been a lot more worse so often got a nigga

[Chorus]
Swerve, Oh
That's just the way to go
Swerve, yeah
That's just the way to go
Swerve, Oh
That's just the way to go, swerve
I can not relate to they beings
Tell 'em
I ain't, I ain't, no I ain't with it
I ain't, I ain't, no I ain't with it
I ain't, I ain't, no I ain't with it
Swerve, yeah
That's just the way to go

[Bridge]
One time for the black man beating all the odds
In a system were they don't want us to rise
Even when we work for our diplomas
But ask around the city now they know us, yeah
Ain't no rich white men behind us, no investors
Wasn't born with them had to work for my connections
Pay all my dues and now I'm finally reimbursed
See you sons-of-bitches hating 'cause it hurt
But you know I gotta

[Chorus]
Swerve, Oh
That's just the way to go
Swerve, yeah
That's just the way to go
Swerve, Oh
That's just the way to go, swerve
I can not relate to they beings
Tell 'em
I ain't, I ain't, no I ain't with it
I ain't, I ain't, no I ain't with it
I ain't, I ain't, no I ain't with it
Swerve, yeah
That's just the way to go

Outro
Yes, sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do you know
Fuck it, that's right nigga, (?)
Just like I said, I'm swerving!
