Текст песни Take It to the Grave - Riddy K

We have to prioritize what we value (take it to the grave)
You can hoard more money than you could ever (take it to the grave)
Spend but it's worthless when you don't have your word (take it to the grave)
The only thing we take with us is our secrets (take it to the grave)
Everything else we leave behind and (take it to the grave)
Nothing you leave behind is worth more (take it to the grave)
Than your word and the impact of your actions (take it to the grave)

For you to understand my struggle, gotta know my situation
It's the reason that I hustle, got the constant motivation
When you grew up in the gutter, take whatever's on your plate
Eating dinner or you suffer, there ain't really no debate, (na)
Take's the mental state of a warrior to
Climb from the pits and still find some euphoria
Knowing that there's more to your life than you just rolling the dice
If you're affording the price, you got the sword and the might (might)
You see a snakes eyes then they're close enough to strike (strike)
I'ma go and earn mine, they ain't giving out light
Playing god with the rhymes, I'm giving ya'll life (life)
Like you're doing hard time, getting hit with three strikes (strikes)
Back to a time when you really had to write
Clear vision for twenty twenty, there's more in sight (insight)
Preserving the product like it was
Stored in ice and I'm more than nice
Where you been? I've been at the door knocking, you aint let me in
Now you at the store stocking, ain't it 'bout a bitch?
Trying to get where Forbes gonna put me on a list
Walking with some diamonds sitting on my left wrist
Park it with the valet, get the keys to the whip
Find me in the alley with a bottle and a zip
Always up to something so I gotta stay equipped
See me stepping out the function, yo

I gotta get paid, fully self made
Step into the game without a dollar to my name
Came a really long way and I ain't done yet
In it for respect, get the check and invest
Can't take it to the grave, slave for a dollar
That's the only way that we can make it out the bottom
The path that I pave ain't for the lighthearted
Lips stay sealed you don't wanna get it started
We gon' take it to the grave

Somebody did something but I ain't saying nothing
Homey, end of discussion, take your secrets to the grave
Throw dirt on my name, you a liar and a fake
If the feeling don't fade, we can take it to the grave
Came a long way but I'm barely getting started
Flow colder than The Arctic
Ain't a question I'm the hardest
In the region but the world is the target
In the game it's open season
Picture red all on the carpet
Better gimme mine, this ain't Emmy time
We can turn up anytime, welcome to the city line
Bakersfield Cali in the heart of Kern County
We can get rowdy, know some people really 'bout it
Get you hit up with a bounty, that ain't in the plans
I'm just trying to get my hand up, stacking all I can
I'm just trying to get my bands up
Like I hit a lick and ran up in it put your hands up
I ain't close to finished, bitch

I gotta get paid, fully self made
Step into the game without a dollar to my name
Came a really long way and I ain't done yet
In it for respect, get the check and invest
Can't take it to the grave, slave for a dollar
That's the only way that we can make it out the bottom
The path that I pave ain't for the lighthearted
Lips stay sealed, you don't wanna get it started
We gonna take it to the grave

Toil through the soil and the field
It's a different type of feeling when you're doing it for real
Hard to get the work out when you're running up hill
Been a battle since I started I've been sharpening steel
Never heel to another man, feel you would understand
If you spent the summer in the gutter with the Son of Sam
Tried to run a scam on me, I got other plans
Watch these rubber bands break and do the running man
I can't take it to the grave and nothing lasts longer
Than impressions that you made, never cave
Never fold, never form to a mold
Got a legacy to build, I ain't doing what I'm told
When a different type of will's been instilled in your soul
It's hard to keep you down, cut your wings
Leave you caged and pigeonholed
Only mode I got is go, get it sold, kill a flow, hit the road
Wheels always spinning just keep it under control
We gon' take it to the grave (take it to the the grave take it to the the grave take it to the the grave)
