[00:00.000] "Hip-Hop"
[00:23.580] I came from drop tops and old school Chevy's
[00:26.920] **** boys rollin' through, *******ttin' on ya heavy
[00:29.850] Fifteens in the trunk beatin' down your block
[00:32.730] Only 4 years old when Biggie got shot
[00:35.630] I remember playing on the block, hanging on the block
[00:38.860] Young *****s slanging on the block, getting off them rocks
[00:41.830] Now we livin' better now, Coogi sweater now
[00:44.560] Weather still getting colder, we could change the weather now
[00:47.550] But I...
[00:48.210] Came up in criminal days
[00:49.250] Living these criminal ways, what can I say
[00:51.080] Hugging the block every day
[00:52.230] Grindin' and making a way
[00:53.290] At night I pray for better days
[00:55.370] That it don't be the same tomorrow
[00:56.880] Now I celebrate my sorrows with this bottle
[00:59.160] And say
[01:00.060] (Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey)
[01:03.460] I pray for more better days
[01:06.590] (Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey)
[01:10.020] I know that I can feel change
[01:12.390] (Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey)
[01:15.540] I pray for more better days
[01:18.510] (Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey)
[01:21.480] I know that I can feel change
[01:24.110] Everyday ain’t good but everyday ain’t bad
[01:27.130] Mama always said show thanks for what you have
[01:29.870] Boy never forget to realize you're blessed
[01:32.960] This cold world can rot you if you let it
[01:35.690] Now I'm out here tryna get it, really out here tryna get it
[01:38.680] Always knew that I would make it, maybe it was so prophetic
[01:41.750] Cause I came from the bottom and the humblest beginnings
[01:44.630] From the youngest ***** grindin' to the youngest ***** winning
[01:48.010] Came up in criminal days
[01:49.180] Living these criminal ways, what can I say
[01:50.940] Hugging the block every day
[01:52.090] Grindin' and making a way
[01:53.160] At night I pray for better days
[01:55.030] That it don't be the same tomorrow
[01:56.950] Now I celebrate my sorrows with this bottle
[01:59.140] And say

[02:21.360] I know that I can feel change
[02:23.960] 'Fore you die you make your mark and reach new levels
[02:27.340] Want the bread, want the diamonds and the bezels
[02:30.170] And if these *****es that you want, have several
[02:33.010] Just gotta know, lotta *******t's temporary
[02:35.970] It won't last, no, no, it won't last, no
[02:38.250] One minute it's still here
[02:39.530] Next thing you know it's all gone
[02:41.510] That's why I been on my grizzy outchea
[02:44.440] Long as I grind, better days are near
[02:47.320] Came up in criminal days
