Songtexte ALMIGHTY DOLLAR/WHITSELL STREET - Nick Grant

(Girl, you knock me out)

If you wan' get away with murder, they gon' probably tell you kill a rap star
The industry is a trapdoor
Goin' harder than some black Forces
Niggas ain't been this fresh since the kid had the brick in the JanSport
Suicide if you mention my name, never ever took a rap loss

Never ran from the beef, but the police turn a nigga track star
Played on a nigga's insecurities when they called my mama crack whore
Struggles of a young Black boy, with niggas steppin' like a frat boy
Wasn't for this rap shit, probably be puttin' keys in a RAV4
Yeah, I'm from the P's where the feds get you takin' pics with the flash off
Never had the money, never had the fame, still the one the bitches ask for
So when I get the money and the fame, see, the hate, I'ma just attract more
Stash dick like Fab 5 Freddy way back in the gap, boy

Was a Bugle Boy, Gap boy, another dies as the 'gnac pours
Graduated from the streets, ain't no lies in my raps, took the cap off
I possess what you lack, dog, savoir-faire, yeah
Critically acclaimed rap-lord, funny 'cause I was the one they laughed off
Now they see my potential and latch on
Niggas still duckin' task force, niggas still duckin' task force
Court case with the gag order
As I see a nigga on Vlad tellin' on himself on these platforms
Ain't no enemies in the crib
But even your friends get you backdoored (what?)

Nothin' ain't right if the money ain't right (get money)
Nothin' ain't right if the money ain't right
Almighty dollar, it doesn't make sense
They died for dollars, I guess it's the trend (get money)
Nothin' ain't right if the money ain't right

Yeah, tell 'em real niggas don't die
Tell 'em real niggas don't die
Dead presidents on a nigga head, how you leave your brother flatlined?
Kill a nigga, never ask why
That's a white man's pastime
See a nigga like me and wanna hurt him, cracker left it in the bloodline

Daddy ain't never had nothin', but he left mama with some black eyes
Mama ain't never had nothin', child of the ghetto chastise
Over school clothes she would buy
Too embarrassed just to go back outside
Inside, heart pure, cousin got life when he went to trial
Booboo gave a nigga 20s when he saw me, was a real nigga, looked out
Think he saw somethin' in a nigga, was a fly nigga, no doubt
When he had the 5.0, jealousy got his brains blown out
I remember our last talk, he said, "Watch niggas movin' foul"

I could still see the nigga smile, prayin' I don't let my niggas down
This for the live niggas gettin' by, this for the live niggas in the town
Tell 'em real niggas don't die, tell 'em real niggas don't die
Tell 'em real niggas don't die, tell 'em real niggas don't-

(Outstanding)
(Girl, you knock me out)
Oh, yeah (ooh, ooh), yeah, yeah (oh)
Oh, yeah (oh, oh, oh, oh)
Yeah

The money keep callin' (oh, yeah)
It ain't over my head, I picked up the line, boy
Yeah, you my dog (yeah, yeah)
So fuck all that petty shit niggas be dyin' for (yeah, yeah)
Brioni fit me like a crime lord (oh, yeah)
Still my issues, though, the vibe's off (ooh)
My father left and left my mom torn (ooh, ooh)
Got the Bible in the top drawer (pray)
'Cause the devil comin' through the side door (oh, yeah)

Yeah, fuck an idol niggas lied towards (ooh, ooh)
Don't let nobody else define yours
Only street rule is let the child cross
Let the woman live, but the niggas die (oh, yeah)
Yeah, we gotta let go of that pride or (ooh, ooh)
When the eagle goes, I bet I soar high (high)

Shine like Michael in his prime
Whenever you a prince, they hope you die (oh, yeah)
Yeah, right, brother, you know I'm fly (ooh, yeah)
The judge just gave my cousin life (yeah)
'Cause sellin' these birds'll get you fried (yeah, yeah)
We only heard stories of Big Meech (oh, yeah)
And if niggas rat, they get Swiss cheesed up (ooh, ooh, ooh)
Mama the youngest of 15
Full house with some big dreams (oh, yeah)

Good evening, one person was shot dead (yeah, yeah)
In his home after intruders busted in the door (yeah, yeah)
Saturday evening (oh, yeah), a woman told police her car was hit by bullets
On Whitsell Street and Lincoln Apartments (ooh, ooh)
That same night, police responded to Lockhart Street (oh, yeah)
Where several men started shooting into a crowd (yeah, yeah)
Now police are investigating a fourth shooting (yeah, yeah)
That happened early this morning on Lewis Street (oh, yeah)
This is an ongoing investigation (oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-)
I just pray to God I make 25, if I-
