Believe It
(专辑: The Greatest Story Never Told - 2011)
[Intro: Red 5ive] Oh Clap [Chorus: Red 5ive (Adlibs Saigon)] Whoa, oh We keep rising to the
top Whoa, oh And keep eyes out for the
cops Whoa, oh And that's what it gon' be Whoa, oh 'Cause you ain't gon' stop me They got you working two jobs, trying to make ends meet You just trying to keep your kids off the
street You gotta believe it (Best believe it's a
dream) Oh, you better believe it (You too can achieve) Uh, oh They got you locked in a
hole, 19 years old 10 years, no chance for parole They better believe it (That's right, tell them again) Oh, you better believe it (After that, tell a
friend) Whoa, oh [Verse 1:] After the
sunshine come the
rain, after the
fun time come the
pain I
often wonder if it's gonna change I
caught a
bad case of Smacking-Bitch-I-Itits (What happened?) I
came home, my wife got my daughter in shitty diapers (Damn) The
rice is still raw and the
meat is still frozen in the
freezer I
hate that I'm to close to her to leave her Either I
hit the
street to do some pitching, knowing these dudes is snitching Or die trying to make it as a
musician My living condition is not in the
greatest condition (Nope) And nah, I
ain't bitching, I
just gotta make a
decision Should I
breeze past, hop out in a
ski mask Rob everything moving and cruise in a
G-Class (Vroom) But keep writing the
heat that the
street like it Youngings is reciting my lyrics, so keep biting Y'all niggas is thinking shit is easy, it's hard One thing I
know I'm a
do is keep believing in God [Chorus: Red 5ive (Adlibs Saigon)] Whoa, oh We keep rising to the
top Whoa, oh And keep eyes out for the
cops Whoa, oh And that's what it gon' be Whoa, oh 'Cause you ain't gon' stop me They got you working two jobs, trying to make ends meet You just trying to keep your kids off the
street You gotta believe it (Best believe it's a
dream) Oh, you better believe it (You too can achieve) Uh, oh They got you locked in a
hole, 19 years old 10 years, no chance for parole You better believe it (That's right, tell them again) Oh, you better believe it (After that, tell a
friend) Whoa, oh [Verse 2:] After the
fast songs come the
slow, after the
sad songs come some more (More) This is the
life I
have come to know Police is in Marquis', Chevy Caprices stroll The
young, hood boogers idolize Keyshia Cole The
rap figures throwing money in the
air like it's pizza dough People in the
hood ain't eating though (Though) I
tried to help the
labels see the
vision But they lowered me to a
subdivision, you gotta be fucking kidding They'd rather me pretend to be something I'm not I'm the
new Public Enemy, I'm different than Yung Joc And nah, I
ain't dissing, this nigga's up in the
Forbes Shit, I
ain't made a
dollar trying to rap for the
cause But in these next four bars, I'll tell you about Maleverly Laws They enforcing on North American shores Dog, if they can have rifles on their farms Then I
don't see why they knocked T.I. for trying to bear arms [Chorus: Red 5ive (Adlibs Saigon)] Whoa, oh We keep rising to the
top Whoa, oh And keep eyes out for the
cops Whoa, oh And that's what it gon' be Whoa, oh 'Cause you ain't gon' stop me They got you working two jobs, trying to make ends meet You just trying to keep your kids off the
street You gotta believe it (Best believe it's a
dream) Oh, you better believe it (You too can achieve) Uh, oh They got you locked in a
hole, 19 years old 10 years, no chance for parole They better believe it (That's right, tell them again) Oh, you better believe it (After that, tell a
friend) Whoa, oh [Verse 3:] Tell them wave at the
artist, I
feel like I'll make it regardless Don't forget I'm the
ex-con that made it the
farthest (Yup) Until the
day that I
lay with the
martyrs Or until the
day I'm parlaying, playing with my sons and my daughters I'mma remain the
smartest, hardest working nigga in the
business Just Blaze, can I
get a
witness (Yessir) See that they probably get it if I
come out flop Get dropped, go back to my block and get shot (Pop) As they putting my body in that life-size Ziplock Then you'll be saying "Damn, Giddy died for this hip-hop" Or maybe it entail you to get locked To another 20 in the
rock for them to give me my props Whatever the
case may be We do a
census on who is the
sickest lyricist, they say me That's without a
album out, y'all rated me I
drop one and I'mma bow out gracefully [Chorus: Red 5ive (Adlibs Saigon)] Whoa, oh We keep rising to the
top Whoa, oh And keep eyes out for the
cops Whoa, oh And that's what it gon' be Whoa, oh 'Cause you ain't gon' stop me They got you working two jobs, trying to make ends meet You just trying to keep your kids off the
street You gotta believe it (Best believe it's a
dream) Oh, you better believe it (You too can achieve) Uh, oh They got you locked in a
hole, 19 years old 10 years, no chance for parole They better believe it (That's right, tell them again) Oh, you better believe it (After that, tell a
friend) Whoa, oh [Bridge: Red 5ive] Keep, keep, keep rising Whoa, oh Keep, keep, keep rising Whoa, oh Keep, keep, keep rising Whoa, oh Keep, keep, keep rising Whoa, oh [Outro: Red 5ive] Wooo! We on the
radio [x6]
