Gutter! - Grip, WARA

Uh, plaques and silverware, play for plays, eating-ass, nigga

Twin mattress on the floor, sleeping-ass nigga

Iffy friends, kitchen faucet, leaking-ass nigga

Off the gas and liquor, down to my last nickel

What would you do if you came from the gutter

To a game to get some change in exchange for your struggles?

And you sang 'bout the pain that pertain to your color

Just for it to get appraised by some lame motherfuckers, yeah (Motherfuckers)

How you figure?

I’m larger than life, nigga

Ain’t pickin' no side with ya, we gon' ride 'til we die (Motherfuckers)

Flip a nigga like switches, I’m 'bout my riches

When we step up in the building, put your hands in the sky (Motherfuckers)

And put your hands in the sky (Motherfuckers)

And put your hands in the sky

Back with a vengeance

Get slapped with the strap when I’m snatchin' your pendant

Rappers pretendin', I’ll really squeeze the ratchet and end it

Compare me to who?

All of these niggas whack, I’m offended

I told them I was top five and I actually meant it

Not slacking a minute, I’m actually ahead of it

My past is your present tense

Forgave you 'fore you started jacking my rhetoric

A veteran, the jacket’s a letterman, the flow a headache, pass the Excedrin

This is way past your aesthetic

Far beyond the image, this is trap and rappin' in your partner’s Honda Civic

Or that county jail your mama visit to see if a bond was given

'Cause you took a chance to advance in a life you ain’t found to live in

Why would I respond to critics?

What would you do if you came from the gutter

To a game to get some change in exchange for your struggles?

And you sang 'bout the pain that pertain to your color

Just for it to get appraised by some lame motherfuckers (Motherfuckers)

How you figure?

I’m larger than life, nigga

Ain’t pickin' no side with ya, we gon' ride 'til we die (Motherfuckers)

Flip a nigga like switches, I’m 'bout my riches

When we step up in the building, put your hands in the sky (Motherfuckers)

And put your hands in the sky (Motherfuckers)

And put your hands in the sky
