Still Here - Z-Ro, Trae Tha Truth, Dougie D

Give me a pad and a pen, and I’ll let the lesson begin

The only way to survive my life is straight up livin' in sin

Keep on gettin' in where you fittin' in, but in case you get stuck

Better keep your piece off safety, you got these niggas fucked up

No matter how many times I get on my knees and pray, it don’t change

Duckin' bullets, and the woman I love keep playing games with my brain

Our relationship’s faded, I tried to save it

But now she living with a nigga named David

Lord, could you please have mercy on this soul of mine

And release the blanket 'cause at night it gets so cold sometimes

Tried to go from a life of crime, but see my hustle was hot

Keep a razor blade to chop up all my twenties and dimes on the spot

Oh yeah I came up in the church, Z-Ro know right from wrong

But I gotta hustle to keep on eatin', because my felony postpone

A nigga like me from gettin' a job, so how the fuck can I rest?

Sometimes I wonder if a nigga’s really blessed, 'cause I’m still here

I’ve been waitin' patiently

(I wonder if a nigga’s really blessed, 'cause I’m still here)

Niggas steady hatin' me

(I wonder if a nigga’s really blessed, 'cause I’m still here)

I’ve been waitin' patiently

(I wonder if a nigga’s really blessed, 'cause I’m still here)

Why have you forsaken me?

(I wonder if a nigga’s really blessed)

Now it’s 1999, the new millennium is upon us

HPD got new technology, they gon' get us if they want us

Under surveillance 24−7 up in this game, you can never tell

Laws can’t see nan one of dem OZ’s

But a snitch’ll provide the blind with braille

Letters to read, indeed they wanna see me in a pine box

You can tell I’m not havin' that at the moment I let my nine cock

Release it cause I’m furious, refuse to let 'em capture me

Can’t get me a little bit of rest because I know them hoes are after me

I signed a major deal, you can see my video on TV

Fuck cappin', I’d rather kick it with Shan-o, Boobie and DP

'Cause they never refuse my company when I show up at the do'

Sometimes a place where everybody knows my name is where I wanna go

Tell me do you know what they call me, 'cause you act like you ain’t heard of me

But you better be ready to die if somebody sent you here to murder me

22, with a motherfucking beer belly

Some say I’m an OG already because I’m still here

I’ve been waitin' patiently

(I wonder if a nigga’s really blessed, 'cause I’m still here)

Niggas steady hatin' me

(I wonder if a nigga’s really blessed, 'cause I’m still here)

I’ve been waitin' patiently

(I wonder if a nigga’s really blessed, 'cause I’m still here)

Why have you forsaken me?

(I wonder if a nigga’s really blessed)

I wonder if my niggas really love me sometimes

Would they give a fuck about Z-Ro if I couldn’t rhyme?

It’s just a thought in my mind, I’m so tired of working my muscle

I just came here to preach, didn’t give a fuck about a hustle

Nigga don’t get me wrong, I’ve been known to bleed blocks

Livin' on every local corner, on a first name basis with these cops

I’ve been locked up so many times, depressed and in jail

Ain’t got no free-world patnas that’ll make my bail

I can see it in the sky, it must be destiny for me to be insane

Feel the expression on my face, can’t you tell I’m in pain?

I try to repent cause that’s a privilege that was given to me

But when I talk to God it seem like he don’t listen to me

Cause I’ll be fienin' for mercy, no matter how many times I whine

I never get it when I want it, but it’s right on time

I can see the world again, from foggy weather to clear

But I still wonder if a nigga’s really blessed, cause I’m still here

I’ve been waitin' patiently

(I wonder if a nigga’s really blessed, 'cause I’m still here)

Niggas steady hatin' me

(I wonder if a nigga’s really blessed 'cause I’m still here)

I’ve been waitin' patiently

(I wonder if a nigga’s really blessed 'cause I’m still here)

Why have you forsaken me?

(I wonder if a nigga’s really blessed, I’m still here)

Then, as I looked

I saw the door standing open in Heaven

And the same voice I had heard before that sounded like a mighty trumpet blast

spoke to me

And said

«Come up here

And I will show you what must happen in the future

But for right now …

I’m still here»
