| We made so many moves
|
| I believe we drank them all
|
| I was stressed, moms kicked me out my rest
|
| My bitch left me and I was depressed
|
| But tell me how I was most consistent when my life was a mess
|
| I guess that’s when I perform best, yes
|
| I had my back against the wall
|
| Sing it, uh, huh, uh, huh, uh, huh, uh, huh
|
| Had my back against the wall
|
| One, two, check it out, yo
|
| There were times life felt so easy, I make it harder on myself
|
| Sabotaged the pursuit of rap wealth, cause cash is dumb whack
|
| I dug myself a hole, just to make a come back
|
| Was writing daily 'til that honey dripper’s drum cracked
|
| To the point that when I came out, they thought I was someone else
|
| Ain’t planned it like that, but it helps
|
| Remember recoding every week, just to get my tops up
|
| And fools acting like I just popped out (what)
|
| Before I ever made a project, I would go to projects out there getting busy
|
| The fuck was suckas talking 'bout «who is he»
|
| Son they been tryna tell you but you didn’t listen, walking contradictions
|
| I made it pop without y’all, I was on a mission
|
| Now herbs come around acting like they made us
|
| They in a state of envy like Vegas, Nevada
|
| Fronting like they true with me, with no soul in the Prada
|
| I been through real shit, man this shit is nada
|
| I was stressed, moms kicked me out my rest
|
| My bitch left me and I was depressed
|
| But tell me how I was most consistent when my life was a mess
|
| I guess that’s when I perform best, yes
|
| I had my back against the wall
|
| Sing it, uh, huh, uh, huh, uh, huh, uh, huh
|
| (Nigga, passed out the hall)
|
| (I got my back, I got my back)
|
| Yo, on this road to getting money, I’m just sliding through
|
| Got two whips, two kids, two baby mommas too
|
| Every day a different city I be flying through
|
| This stress gives you gray hairs, I just found a few
|
| Found me a little bad bitch and she 'bout it too
|
| Grinding hard, making sure this bank account is full
|
| Had my back against the wall, fought my way through
|
| Watched a couple cats profit off my wave too
|
| Still running with the same crew, cause I stay true
|
| Term and Statik established 1982
|
| This must be heaven, being a dad plus a legend
|
| I got a seven figure dream, that’s a lucky seven
|
| I hit the dutch, exhale, then sip this cup
|
| Tryna take away the pain so I’m liquored up
|
| Listen up, every day you wake is a blessing
|
| That’s another twenty-four to grind for this cheddar
|
| Back against the wall
|
| Uh, huh, uh, huh, uh, huh, uh, huh
|
| (Passed out the hall)
|
| My life was a mess, I guess that’s when I perform best
|
| (Back against the wall, yeah
|
| Had the back against the wall, oh
|
| Yeah, I got my back, I got my back against the wall) |
