ALMIGHTY DOLLAR/WHITSELL STREET Lyrics

[00:00.14] (Girl, you knock me out)
[00:15.65] If you wan' get away with murder, they gon' probably tell you kill a rap star
[00:18.41] The industry is a trapdoor
[00:19.86] Goin' harder than some black Forces
[00:21.38] Niggas ain't been this fresh since the kid had the brick in the JanSport
[00:24.36] Suicide if you mention my name, never ever took a rap loss
[00:27.80] Never ran from the beef, but the police turn a nigga track star
[00:30.67] Played on a nigga's insecurities when they called my mama crack whore
[00:33.65] Struggles of a young Black boy, with niggas steppin' like a frat boy
[00:36.69] Wasn't for this rap shit, probably be puttin' keys in a RAV4
[00:39.94] Yeah, I'm from the P's where the feds get you takin' pics with the flash off
[00:42.92] Never had the money, never had the fame, still the one the bitches ask for
[00:45.92] So when I get the money and the fame, see, the hate, I'ma just attract more
[00:48.98] Stash dick like Fab 5 Freddy way back in the gap, boy
[00:52.07] Was a Bugle Boy, Gap boy, another dies as the 'gnac pours
[00:55.25] Graduated from the streets, ain't no lies in my raps, took the cap off
[00:58.26] I possess what you lack, dog, savoir-faire, yeah
[01:01.36] Critically acclaimed rap-lord, funny 'cause I was the one they laughed off
[01:04.15] Now they see my potential and latch on
[01:05.50] Niggas still duckin' task force, niggas still duckin' task force
[01:08.67] Court case with the gag order
[01:10.71] As I see a nigga on Vlad tellin' on himself on these platforms
[01:13.57] Ain't no enemies in the crib
[01:14.94] But even your friends get you backdoored (what?)
[01:17.98] Nothin' ain't right if the money ain't right (get money)
[01:23.91] Nothin' ain't right if the money ain't right
[01:28.65] Almighty dollar, it doesn't make sense
[01:31.62] They died for dollars, I guess it's the trend (get money)
[01:36.31] Nothin' ain't right if the money ain't right
[01:40.56] Yeah, tell 'em real niggas don't die
[01:42.26] Tell 'em real niggas don't die
[01:43.86] Dead presidents on a nigga head, how you leave your brother flatlined?
[01:46.81] Kill a nigga, never ask why
[01:48.27] That's a white man's pastime
[01:49.92] See a nigga like me and wanna hurt him, cracker left it in the bloodline
[01:53.29] Daddy ain't never had nothin', but he left mama with some black eyes
[01:56.13] Mama ain't never had nothin', child of the ghetto chastise
[01:59.33] Over school clothes she would buy
[02:00.67] Too embarrassed just to go back outside
[02:02.29] Inside, heart pure, cousin got life when he went to trial
[02:05.40] Booboo gave a nigga 20s when he saw me, was a real nigga, looked out
[02:08.41] Think he saw somethin' in a nigga, was a fly nigga, no doubt
[02:11.72] When he had the 5.0, jealousy got his brains blown out
[02:14.43] I remember our last talk, he said, "Watch niggas movin' foul"
[02:17.71] I could still see the nigga smile, prayin' I don't let my niggas down
[02:20.60] This for the live niggas gettin' by, this for the live niggas in the town
[02:23.76] Tell 'em real niggas don't die, tell 'em real niggas don't die
[02:26.76] Tell 'em real niggas don't die, tell 'em real niggas don't-
[02:30.65] (Outstanding)

[02:59.81] Yeah, you my dog (yeah, yeah)
[03:00.86] So fuck all that petty shit niggas be dyin' for (yeah, yeah)
[03:03.29] Brioni fit me like a crime lord (oh, yeah)
[03:04.94] Still my issues, though, the vibe's off (ooh)
[03:06.97] My father left and left my mom torn (ooh, ooh)
[03:08.75] Got the Bible in the top drawer (pray)
[03:10.69] 'Cause the devil comin' through the side door (oh, yeah)
[03:12.43] Yeah, fuck an idol niggas lied towards (ooh, ooh)
[03:14.56] Don't let nobody else define yours
[03:16.27] Only street rule is let the child cross
[03:18.16] Let the woman live, but the niggas die (oh, yeah)
[03:19.76] Yeah, we gotta let go of that pride or (ooh, ooh)
[03:21.70] When the eagle goes, I bet I soar high (high)
[03:24.27] Shine like Michael in his prime
[03:25.83] Whenever you a prince, they hope you die (oh, yeah)
[03:28.01] Yeah, right, brother, you know I'm fly (ooh, yeah)
[03:29.77] The judge just gave my cousin life (yeah)
[03:31.36] 'Cause sellin' these birds'll get you fried (yeah, yeah)
[03:33.23] We only heard stories of Big Meech (oh, yeah)
[03:35.31] And if niggas rat, they get Swiss cheesed up (ooh, ooh, ooh)
[03:37.25] Mama the youngest of 15
[03:39.02] Full house with some big dreams (oh, yeah)
[03:41.97] Good evening, one person was shot dead (yeah, yeah)
[03:43.72] In his home after intruders busted in the door (yeah, yeah)
[03:46.96] Saturday evening (oh, yeah), a woman told police her car was hit by bullets
[03:51.38] On Whitsell Street and Lincoln Apartments (ooh, ooh)
[03:54.20] That same night, police responded to Lockhart Street (oh, yeah)
[03:57.38] Where several men started shooting into a crowd (yeah, yeah)
[04:00.41] Now police are investigating a fourth shooting (yeah, yeah)
[04:03.23] That happened early this morning on Lewis Street (oh, yeah)
[04:06.12] This is an ongoing investigation (oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-)
