Hold Ya Head lyrics

[Chorus]
This goes out to those of you who get it in and grind
Loved ones in the grave, the others doing time
But we'll be just right
Hold your head, hold your head
But don't ever hold your head down
Everybody love it when you broke, hate it when you shine
Back against the ropes, no frowns, we still smile
Hold your head, hold your head
But don't ever hold your head down

[Verse 1]
Got it out the mud servin' lingos in the trap
Couple faggots wanted me wacked, had me clutchin' gats
Pumpin' crack, crack smokers quickly comin' back
I do 'bout fifty-five ounces off of brick, it's jumpin' back
Neighborhood record label poppin' in my city
Dreadlocks, aqua green collar with a fitted
Headlock label say if I leave, I get a headshot
Signed one contract, business venture proposal
Pay close attention, tricky dealin' with hidden motives
Like I said, I signed one contract, but noticed
Went to jail, came home, label playin' me closer
Showed me two contracts with my signature and my social
What the f*ck is that?
[Interlude]
Let's be honest; when you check into a hotel and you sign for your room, you don't write your motherf*ckin' social security number next to your signature
I come home, they got my social next to my sh*t on two contracts
I only signed one

[Chorus]
This goes out to those of you who get it in and grind
Loved ones in the grave, the others doing time
But we'll be just right
Hold your head, hold your head
But don't ever hold your head down
Everybody love it when you broke, hate it when you shine
Back against the ropes, no frowns, we still smile
Hold your head, hold your head
But don't ever hold your head down

[Verse 2]
All they ever told me was how blessed I was to be under them
Reaper'll kill you, God's children ain't the children of men
This for those who got picked on and teased all their life
Unspoken motives of the cruel, on my knees every night
Black thermal up under army fatigue with a pipe
Itchin' a blick, a biscuit, no need to mimic pretenders
Indeed, I eat in a business when enemies would befriend you
Until they see you defenseless and send a n*gga to flip you
Strictly dealin' the district, they leave the building, it's history
Back controllin' the city with vacuum sales and them digits
sh*ttin' on you b*tches that wouldn't lend me a penny
Smilin' everytime I'm sticking my di*k in one of your women, Gates
[Interlude]
A wise man told me that to get what you want, you gotta know what the f*ck you want
A wise man also told me that a double-minded man is unstable in all his ways
I'm up in focus

[Chorus]
This goes out to those of you who get it in and grind
Loved ones in the grave, the others doing time
But we'll be just right
Hold your head, hold your head
But don't ever hold your head down
Everybody love it when you broke, hate it when you shine
Back against the ropes, no frowns, we still smile
Hold your head, hold your head
But don't ever hold your head down
