Arrws vs. Giggs - The Way It Is текст песни

Let me take you back to the beginning
And explain to them exactly how I've been living
All the tragedies that I've been given
But nothing stop me from grabbing hold of my vision
I've never had it easy, I'm talking bout the days when
We had hangers on our tv's
When I never hide it to be greedy
I remember when I used to run and skank it on the D3
I'm talking bout the pefree buss, nothing in the bread pins, The niggas eating crust
Way before these beefing stuffs
When niggas biggest problem was being sluts
But now a nigga hustle from 11
And then they're like, fuck girls, I'm grabbing hold of a weapon
And then they're like fuck school, I ain't catching none of them lessons.
And I'm just thinking, what's happening in my presence

I'm just telling them the way it is
I'm just telling them the way I live
Hollowman, tell them bout the way it is
It's exactly how I say it is
I'm just telling them the way it is
I'm just telling them the way I live
Hollowman, tell them bout the way it is
It's exactly how I say it is

I never asked nobody for nothing, nobody ain't helped me except my soldiers with the suttin,
That's why I do anything I have to, I made the last straw, cause all the pain I put my back through, And the radio weren't laying down my rap tunes,
Called me criminal, we ain't paying all them rap goons,
Now you gotta understand where I'm coming from
Greasy hood nigga I was laying down the facts through,
What I do best, should I have gone and got a strap too?
The only thing I know, no, I laid it on a rap tune
Cause I'm tryna change, they were forcing me to rap rude, you grew up 'round here you might be rollin' with a strap too, Excuse me if I offended anyone,
Through the pain in my heart, it's the struggle that I've come through, I never thought shit would get crazy over one tune.


I'm just telling them the way it is
I'm just telling them the way I live
Hollowman, tell them bout the way it is
It's exactly how I say it is
I'm just telling them the way it is
I'm just telling them the way I live
Hollowman, tell them bout the way it is
It's exactly how I say it is

Before I be fiending away, still runnin' up the steps and I'm pacing away, still ain't made it to the top but I'm paving a way, I know that I'ma make it so I'ma patient for change, I remember standing in the shop, waiting for change, as a youth man, grabbin' a quick cherry ace, thinking to myself I won't be a government slave, I'ma be something one day and nothing you change, this ain't shit that I rap, could you stomach the pain,
Or better yet, could you stomach the game, I did my sentence why should I be punished again? Sometimes I feel like I ain't got nothing to gain, They want me say fuck rap, back to flooding the caine, and getting wrapped up and stay in that government place, they want
me in the box, callin' the governer's name, and then the governer calls me my government name, this is the message that they want for the youths of today, stop being a real gangsta that's trying to change, I threw a BET party, they locked up the rave, it never even started, there was feds at the gate, the amount of times I've told Buck I'm forgetting the game, and he says .... Giggs, you know you're just set in your ways, but at the same time you know that you're settin' the way, if you forget about this, you're forgetting the pain. The feds hate me, they hate that I'm slippin' away, I was just about to sign I was seconds away, they rang the record label up and they flippin' complained, there they go again, are they flippin' insane? I thought that it was crazy when they banned me from Wayne, they nicked my little brother Spen when he stopped off the plane..
