The Fire Next Time |
Out of the fire I found a fire inside |
You can see the pain still alive in my eyes |
I’ve loved and I’ve lost, through heaven and hell |
They turn they back on me too many times to turn back now |
My nigga, I won’t stop, now |
I can’t, I can’t, I can’t stop now |
I can’t, I can’t, I can’t be stopped now |
It wasn’t easy, but I learned the hard way and let me tell you how |
Lived life and learned my lessons |
Spent dough and earned my blessings |
Southside my tatted necklace |
Ball like I’m ambidextrous |
Every time they tried to block me |
Switched hands and changed directions |
Fist in the air like Rocky |
Bitch, I think my name Sylvester |
That’s the difference between me and them |
When they thought it was the end, I was still tryna see a M |
Now the difference 'tween me and them |
Even in Mercedes Buick, I was still tryna see a Benz |
I was backed into a corner, sat chasing, catching charges |
It’s re-election season, bitch, I think I’m back in office |
You don’t know my pain, how far I came |
Those days are gone, you cursed my name |
I prayed to God he shined the sun |
He gave me rain, I took that water and walked on it |
Marching harder than a million Martins |
On my darkest days, I’m still a star; |
I shine regardless |
Out of the fire I found a fire inside |
You can see the pain still alive in my eyes |
I’ve loved and I’ve lost, through heaven and hell |
They turned they back on me too many times to turn back now |
My nigga, I won’t stop now |
I can’t, I can’t, I can’t stop now |
I can’t, I can’t, I can’t be stopped now |
And I thought they said light skinned niggas went out of style |
André 3K said you only funky as your last cut |
So I’m state to state in the act like a Mac truck |
Plus I gotta keep the Mac tucked |
For these big soldier niggas on the 'net tryna act tough |
Y’all too alternative, get your facts up |
I shoot to heat throw, get my stacks up |
I get pounds to spend this English |
Bitch, I think I’m 'bout to rack up |
You don’t get it, do you? |
When you on that big screen |
There’s a lot of little people living through you |
And when you don’t stick to the script |
They assassinate your character and act like they never knew you |
That’s just how the game goes I guess |
Change clothes, I dress |
Like Project Runway meets the projects |
Write like Noah, but a little more Complex |
I fed niggas and they shitted on me |
Took the piss out me, then spilt it on me |
When I broke down like Britney Spears |
Said they throw me, oops, they never did it on me |
So I wrote 'em out and made a bigger story |
Vic’s story, that’s victory |
Niggas never did shit for me |
Show them the ropes and they jumped ship on me |
But I never drowned, stayed down |
Sang songs for my home town |
Made homes for the broke kids |
Stepping over needles in the playground |
Y’all the only thing that matters to me |
If y’all love me, fuck everybody |
If y’all love me, they could never stop me |
If y’all love me, they could never stop me |
Out of the fire I found a fire inside |
You can see the pain still alive in my eyes |
I’ve loved and I’ve lost, through heaven and hell |
They turned they back on me too many times to turn back now |
My nigga, I won’t stop now |
I can’t, I can’t, I can’t stop now |
I can’t, I can’t, I can’t be stopped now |
Yeah, I gave you my pain through pen |
No I.D. |
