lirik lagu jabbar hakeem - r.e.d
[intro: the weeknd]
thinkin’ ’bout it
girl you’re thinkin’ ’bout it
what we got here
how we f-ckin’ got here
they recognize
they just recognize
i’m in a life without a home so this recognitions not enough
i don’t care about n0body else
cause i’ve been on these streets way too long, too long, too long
baby i’ve been on this too long
[verse 1: jabbar hakeem]
i’ve never thought that i would be grinding to be a rapper
i’d never thought the people around me would be a factor
sh-t, before i had a job, i was cool with a trapper
i was young and gettin’ money, my future ain’t really matter
but that’s when you know you living backwards
the paper i was seein’, it was like i never had it
sh-t was tragic, i was broke, i had to go for it
cause with no drive, well there ain’t nothing to show for it
and now…
[interlude: jabbar hakeem]
i’ve been working so d-mn hard lately
i’m just trying to tell my n-ggas to grind
so when i come back to get y’all, like
n-gga, y’all already got a motive going on and sh-t, like…
[verse 2: jabbar hakeem]
and sh-t, i thought that ball was life
but i ain’t had no discipline
i did a lot of talk and i had a problem with listening
i thought i knew it all, but i didn’t know enough
and i was feeling like, f-ck it
sh-t, i’m the best, they know what’s up
no, i did what i was doing en route to becoming truant
and grew up in a home with a marijuana influence
when you see your brother trap, then it make you wanna pursue it
cause i ain’t had no paper and being broke was a nuisance
so i got a pack, no i ain’t no copy cat
smoking like a train because i’m not a hypochondriac
had to get that paper on the hunt, like where them dollars at
cause when them women notice that you winnin’, then they holla back
f-ck it, i was lovin’ it, living life fast money coming in
the second i would get it, i spend it, it ain’t no budget
this is how i came up, young and i couldn’t help it
and only worry bout myself, it ain’t no question
am i selfish, but i’m…
[interlude: jabbar hakeem]
my mission is to get out the hood, get out the house
start building our own lives and sh-t
like, i just want my n-ggas to see that, feel me?
like yeah, yeah
[verse 3: jabbar hakeem]
i’m hardly ever home it’s no wonder my mother callin’
i told her i won’t answer until it’s that money callin’
not no drug money, yeah, i’m talking rap money
hate me now cause when i make it, you won’t get a stack from me
i done figured out i got a talent for this music
and all my family doubtin’ me like what the h-ll you doing
you focused on this rap, you should be focused on your schooling
i’ll tell ’em i’m a make it, see, this is the life that i’m choosing
ain’t no mission impossible in rap, i’m tom cruisin’
except i ain’t a k!ller, i was never in a shootin’
nowadays, when you hot, you gotta watch who you cool with
n-gga’s askin’ to light it before they ask how i’m doin’
and it’s crazy what the weed do
no i can’t believe it
but then i think “r.e.d. remember, everyone’s deceiving”
and mama, it’s hard, no i can’t see you hurt no more
i’m tryna do this sh-t so you ain’t gotta work no more
[outro: jabbar hakeem]
i know this sh-t is gonna pop off
i know i got the talent for this music
people telling me you shouldn’t do this, you shouldn’t do that
listen man
i’m living with the decisions i make until i prove everybody wrong
that just how i’m a get it
