Lyrics By the River (Catfish Freestyle) - Jamel

Daddy said that he wish that he knew "this"
That's a man with a whole 'lot of 'gret
But he say that he love that he know me
Mama said, "boy, don't hold ya breath"
Heard he was chasing that bonus
Told me, "son, stay out of debt"
Gotta say, I'm glad that he know us
That's a man with a whole lot of 'spec
Told a nigga, "handle yo bidness"
Told a nigga, "hustle fo' his"
Memba' takin trips, Mississippi
Showed me the world was so big
Been wanting catfish for dinner
Hope I can have it again
I can't leave LA till winter
"Boy, you just get you a check"

You got some tree? Roll up
Is it just me? Or us?
You need to pick yo side
Is it that dust to dust?
Be sure to dot your I's
Be sure to build yo trust
And if they tell you stay humblе
Don't be afraid to stand up

Daddy said he witnessеd some thangs
Said he watched that sun turn to rain
Boy, I am telling you something
Said the world be bringing us pain
But just know that we are diamonds
And don't forget your last name, uh

Nah, don't be livin' life like there's nothing to do
Niggas steady chasin' low hangin' fruit
And we all know what happened to Adam
And I know it could happen to you
That's a man who can't swallow the truth
Look at my neck for the proof
That's a real point of view
Need a mil, maybe two
Need a field, and a mule
Got some bills that are due
Man, i gotta keep it true
Man, i gotta get the loot
Put the pedal to my shoes
Put the scissors to the noose
Put my brothas in the room
Else a nigga gotta do?
Else a nigga gotta lose?
I'm just sayin what I knew
I'm still lookin for the truth
'Preciating all the blue

You got some tree? Roll up
Is it just me? Or us?
You need to pick yo side
Is it that dust to dust?
Be sure to dot your I's
Be sure to build yo trust
And if they tell you stay humble
Don't be afraid to stand up
You got some tree? Roll up
Is it just me? Or us?
You need to pick yo side
Is it that dust to dust?
Be sure to dot your I's
Be sure to build yo trust
And if they tell you stay humble
Don't be afraid to stand up
