Runs Thru My Blood

(album: A Time 2 Kill - 2012)

[Hook x2:]
This shit run thru my blood
I say this shit run thru my blood
Yeah, this shit run thru my blood
Lil' hoes this shit run thru my blood

Take you back to year 01', sitting in my apartments
Hundred thousand dollar appetite, I was starving
Half my partners dealing, the other half was robbing
One thing they had in common, they always catching charges
Had my mind made, always get money regardless
And fuck going to jail, long as I'm clocking dollars
Word got around, Lil Dolph he got that good
Niggas wanna shop but scared to come to my hood
Niggas act like pussies so I started making deliveries
All in North Memphis serving with that forty-fifth on me
Fuck all my enemies, pussies don't know my struggle
I started selling dope to take care of my lil' brother

[Hook x2]

Never sold soft, I never touched the hard
But word through the city, this young nigga go hard
My grandma found out I was slanging and it broke her heart
She caught me red handed sacking up in the backyard
I turned around, you right there, I didn't know what to say
Worst day of my life seeing them tears come down your face
She said "you gon' be just like your daddy, and your Uncle Vick"
"They was doing the same shit back in '76"
Woah, that shit fucked me up
From what my grandmomma told me this shit run in my blood
I had to give y'all the story because it's past due
I didn't do it cause I want to, but because I had to

[Hook x2]

So much strong in here the fumes make you nauseous
Been running the streets so long that I'm exhausted
Hooked up with my big dog and got on that boss shit
Now a days the whole city on that Dolph shit
Turned a bale of loud to a motherfucking coop
Turned a trap house to a motherfucking rap booth
Told my plug this my last time, and I'm through
He said "I don't blame you young nigga, you the truth"
Now me and my nigga DJ Squeeky making history
And I'm shitting on these rap niggas cause they ain't shit to me
Turned my clientele to a fucking empire
Wait lemme smoke to this, where's my lighter?
