Lightshow East Of The River Lyrics

Came to get money and if I don't then i'm not leaving
Changed to get this money for the better
That's my reasoning
Gotta keep it with me
Got it on me now like defense
I know they love you then they hate you
That's the sequence
You just gotta believe that you could do it
That's the secret
Bought her Gucci sneakers
Not the new ones
Ones with the sequins
I thought we was gangstas
What you doing running to the precint
I got shit to prove and not to you
You just wanna see shit
You don't wanna see me lit
You don't want me to eat with
Niggas that I starved with
That pulled me out the deep in
Studio apartments [?] fourteen
No sleep-ins
Really putting work in
Now everyday a weekend

I had to cut off my basics
I know they coming
I covered my bases
I know she know us from standing on couches
And molding a couple of places

You don't wanna know us from running in houses
And pointing these choppas in faces
Find you where you think you safest
Just to find out 'bout them plates

At DC 'bout to fly out L.A You know I ball like I tryout to play
Almost ain't make it like Tyson ferry
The weed was way stronger and [?] out the Bay
Soufside i'm from the Soufside
I hope that you strapped when you outside
Pray that they don't take your child away

Shay took my smile away
I been waiting for change
It feel like that shit is a while away
Sleep when I die i'm wide awake

How you relate when i'm from a place
Where we die at a higher rate
And it's lower rewards and higher stakes

But it's business
My niggas I need 'em
Can't leave 'em
Life sentence
My pieces they quarters
Conceited
I'm winning
And I asked you
For help that I needed
Couldn't get it
You thought I forgot about it
I seen your call I missed it
I'm going all the distance
This what you call a difference
I'm who you call a boss
They gon' feel me in them law decisions
That shit you call a loss
It wasn't at all
It all was written
What I used to call a life I call it living
East of the river
