lirik lagu too short - longevity
ah, yeah
scarface, short dog
yeah, ah, longevity
uh, fake n-gg-s
and you can tell ’em i said it
i said m-th-f-ckas is takin’ the credit
been in the game for 20 minutes
and they thinkin’ they legends
all on their videos showin’ off, frontin’ for the camera
one-hit wonders is playin’ games, fakin’ stamina
i damage ya, throwin’ blows to your egos
flossin’ new leather, think you the sh-t wearin’ these clothes
and supposed to flash and have the finer things
but can’t seem to keep your money, ’cause you’re buyin’ rings
what is you gettin’, 7 or 6, new record contract?
bustin’ your bomb raps but you ain’t gettin’ your funds back
f-ck that, i been around since ’86
way before my m-th-f-ckin’ mind played tricks
and when too short told me this b-tch, it wasn’t givin’
’cause i’m sick and tired of n-gg-s fantasizin’ they livin’
all on the television tryna front like that’s your car
with a fat–ss cigar, you ain’t no m-th-f-ckin’ star
what you are is a n-gg- lost, dazed and confused
back in the day that you stepped in it is the day that you do
but on the cool, some n-gg-s been around since the ’70s
steadily preachin’ to us all longevity
you don’t get sh-t for free
your own destiny
longevity, longevity
you don’t get sh-t for free
your own destiny
longevity, longevity
10 years ago a friend of mine
asked me to say some mc rhymes
but back then, i said f-ck rhymin’, i was tryna get laid
but now it’s ’98, i’m all about gettin’ paid
f-ck that bullsh-t you n-gg-s be on in your videos
drive the sh-t your c e o, own
in their home, at their parties, you n-gg-s dummies
m-th-f-cka, f-ck the fame, it’s all about the money
and then the power
slingin’ tapes like powder
everything i own is mine
don’t understand ‘ours’
this is a serious business
my n-gg-, take care of your business
especially you n-gg-s with gimmicks
your -ss is finished
in the nick of time, f-ck havin’ the tightest rhymes
you better grind, it’s plenty fools dope without a dime
so i’m tight with mines and i prove that every time
just to let you n-gg-s know i’m out to get mine, that’s longevity
you don’t get sh-t for free
your own destiny
longevity, longevity
you don’t get sh-t for free
your own destiny
longevity, longevity
who got the freshman flop or the soph-m-re jinx
rappers blow up, fall off and think
been there, done that, about to make a comeback
i’m on some new sh-t, not like my young raps
i know what you sold, first alb-m went gold
then you changed the style, shoulda stuck with the old
flows and the old clothes, ’cause now you fake
you ain’t got no hoes committin’ foul play
hatin’ on me, but you’re waitin’ to see
old school too short in the place to be
i ain’t backstage chasin’ young girlies
i’m chasin’ money, i’m in my early 30s
still sellin’ records and i’m still a real player
can’t understand how you still could be a hater
said i don’t stop rappin’ from the start
if you don’t believe me, go check the charts, b-tch
you don’t get sh-t for free
your own destiny
longevity, longevity
you don’t get sh-t for free
your own destiny
longevity, longevity
