Текст песни Gettin' By - Caleborate

I been gettin' by sayin' bye to, yeah
Uh, I been gettin' by sayin' bye to hoes
I been gettin', uh
I been gettin' by sayin' bye to hoes
I been gettin' mine, hope you gettin' yours
Uh, I be gettin' high, only lord knows
I been fly
Been gettin' fly like butterfly doors
Said I been gettin' by sayin' bye to hoes
Said I been gettin' mine, hope you gettin' yours
Uh, I be gettin' high, only lord knows
I been fly
Been gettin' fly like butterfly doors, uh
You know Ye taught me how to drive slow
The Kanye of the bay to bay say so
I never changed up
Instead, I just changed roles
Became a leader for my people 'cause we can't grow without one
What good is being Martin if you can't pose with Malcolm?
What good is being young and black
When you don't control your outcome?
What good is being rich if you can't spread the wealth around some?
What good is all the good I do?
I'm still gon' fuck around some
I'm outdone by these fellas telling
Me "get bitches", and they held a treat
A peace offer, I give you my light so you can see
It's much deeper than gold chains and Range Rovers
If we ain't have rappers support it would be game over
I hate to be so pessimistic, borderline sadistic
But I'm tired of fucking with these niggas like a jealous mistress
I'm steady ducking all these women cause they never get it
I'm a nigga with a bright future, can't afford to miss it
I been gettin' by sayin' bye to hoes
I been gettin' mine, hope you gettin' yours
Uh, I be gettin' high, only lord knows
I been fly
Been gettin' fly like butterfly doors, uh
Said I been gettin' by sayin' bye to hoes, uh
And I been gettin' mine, hope you gettin' yours
Said I be gettin' high, only lord knows
I been fly
Been gettin' fly like butterfly doors, uh
Look, I'm not perfect
Or never claimed to be that
But I just been blessed mom
Look, can't you see that?
These people, they believe in me
And they give me feedback
I think the whole bay is lit
The world is finna see that
Uh, we came up, like we had just took that blue pill
After I dropped *Hella Good*, I got off with a few deals
But, I just said "Fuck it"
I'm up on my own shit
Man, fuck selling out, when my niggas can own shit
This that new sound, but peace to that old shit
See I came to resurrect like Q-tip
Peep my knowledge?
I'm still in college
A career student
Addicted to class
And come here students
I mean, I mean well
I mean, I can't fail
It's just, I'm in the papers
So it's hard, to turn in papers
I was just with the nigga with the number one album last week
It's hard to stay in class and not go asleep
It's hard to gas
But I'm on the track, and not gettin' weak
I got my weight up like I'm eating, but I'm hungry as shit
'Cause moms still gotta work and daddy locked in a pen
And F you college, ain't paid
And lil sis ain't rich
I got a lot of lives to save while doing this shit
Sippin' tea, daydreaming
Watching movies and shit
I wanna run the whole game
So let's make it a marathon
*Hella Good* forever
Put my everything in every song
'Cause been gettin' by sayin' bye to hoes
And been gettin' mine, hope you gettin' yours
Uh, I be gettin' high, only lord knows
I been fly
Been gettin' fly like butterfly doors, uh
Said I been gettin' by sayin' bye to hoes, uh
And I been gettin' mine, hope you gettin' yours
Said I be gettin' high, only lord knows
I been fly
Been gettin' fly like butterfly doors, uh
