House in the Hills (feat. Curren$y) (Explicit)

Got no time for the conversations
Or funny sh*t
Ni**a only the reals
Who I get my money with
Used to turn on the TV
See what I want
And now the same one
I dreamed about
The same one I'm stuntin' in
In the 6-2 almost 26
And every ni**a
That I'm with got a zip
I look at this sh*t as one big table
And best believe every ni**a
I'm with got a sit
They try to hold us back
Paint a picture of us
Then sell it straight to the public
You young black then you thuggin'
What they don't talk about the kid
That came from nothin'
Who stuck to what he believed in
And turned himself into something great
They should use that story to motivate
But instead they'd rather focus on the fact
That he's a pothead
Not the fact there's not a lot where I lived
25 and not dead
I'm tryna tell you somethin'
This sh*t's real
When you work hard to get it
That's how you feel
The man that start
What they knew
And they ain't away
No
We started small to them
Houses in the hills
To them houses in the hills
Houses in the hills
Houses in the hills
To them houses in them hills
You make a little money
Take care and right yourself
And people start coming up
With they hand out
People take their stresses
And make them yours
Well that's just what comes
With being a man
I try to do all
That I can to make sure that
My son grow up without having to see
Half of the stuff I've been through
But in life we all got our own path
Don't understand that by now
You won't begin to
Cop another Rollex or Porsche
Try and get even with me
Pulled up to the club
Swear it looked like the dealer with me
Cause we had so many cars
It was stupid
So I don't see a reason to try
And reason with me
Made a couple million and fast too
They ain't teach a young ni**a
That in the classroom
Or how to make your people better
By taking knowledge
And spreadin' it
Not being in the game
But ahead of it
In a better place
I'm tryna tell you somethin'
This sh*t's real
When you work hard to get it
That's how you feel
The man that start
What they knew and they ain't away
No
We started small to them
Houses in the hills
To them houses in the hills
Houses in the hills
Houses in the hills
To them houses in them hills
Houses in the hills
Thousand dollar benefit plates
No matter how high the stakes
n***as never outta place
Now I'm high Empire State
Drunk stumblin'
Never will I tumble far from grace
I'm one of them under-celebrated greats
Under the influence of
What Uncle Snoop threw me
Soon as I stepped off the plane
Switchin' four lanes like Jay
And Jermaine
Killin' beats visitin' grave sites
And pissin' champagne
I been in the crib enjoying my hobbies
Suckers figured
This'll be the perfect time to try me
Try me
Assumptions that I'm lunchin'
Gettin' sloppy
I'm just gettin' better
Seasoned veteran
Eagle eye perspective
Scope before I go in
Come out with the whole hen
A dollar and a dream
Have a house on the hill
And the world on a screen
I'm tryna tell you somethin'
This sh*t's real
When you work hard to get it
That's how you feel
The man that start
What they knew and they ain't away
No
We started small to them
Houses in the hills
We started small to them
Houses in the hills
We started small to them
Houses in the hills
