Lyric Project
[Turk]
They got this nigga named Rob, and Rob is my dog
His people doin bad, sometimes I break him off
I got love for the nigga - round my way, they doin bad
Every time we come outside, we say, "Look at they dirty ass."
He ain t worried bout it, he just keep his head up
And say, "One day, I ma be straight. Y all just watch when I come up."
Some days, my dog don t have nothin to eat
Man, that shit is cold, but sometime that s how it be
His momma on stones, daddy on hero n
Whole household fucked up - all of them bitches gone
Dog, they know they gone, tryin to score from me
Knowin I be with they son every day of the week
But they don t care - fuck that, not gon play it like that
That s my motherfuckin round, so I ma give him respect
Even though shit fucked up, my round still be chillin
Gettin it how he live in this project livin
[Hook - Hakiem]
In the project, niggas don t wan see you come up
You don t give em what they want, they gon fuck your head up
Like a man, bruh - you know how it be goin down
Nigga be straight project when they livin uptown
In the project, you know niggas be stun n, round
If a nigga don t play ya nigga, go lay your ass down
Like a man, bruh - you know how it be goin down
Nigga be straight thuggin when they livin uptown
[Turk]
Look
Verse two, and I ma talk about these project broads
Stealin clothes, gettin hustles, usin them credit cards
Gettin how they could, anyway that they can
Wearin each other clothes, fuckin each other man
Gotta respect they mind, let em do what they do
Broads like to look good, and they like to shine, too
Havin babies like that ain t nothin for niggas with names
Them hoes love a nigga with that project fame
Sittin on the porch, just gossipin
Bout any and everything that be happenin
This shit s real - get it how they live in the brick
You should know how it is if you live in the bricks
They do whatever it takes to keep a lil cake
Catch them a duck, they want everything that he make
Yeah, they play it raw, but I ain t mad at em
I just let em do they thing, dog, I ain t mad at em
[Hook - Hakiem]
[Turk]
Everyday, it s the same old shit, but different toilets
Either you re hustlin or you re starvin like Marvin
Livin from (??) to (?), beggin niggas for jo s
Gettin played like a junky, disrespected by hoes
Cause ain t no nigga gon give you shit, get it for yourself
Flip til you can t flip no more for yourself
Gotta get off your ass - make it happen, my nigga
Even if it come down to you pullin that trigga
Nigga, look, don t worry bout the next nigga
They gon hate ya anyway, and that s a fact, nigga
So while they hatin , you just keep doin your thing
Nigga get outta line is when you let your nuts hang
In the project, nigga don t wan see you come up
You don t give em what they want, they just fuck your head up
Like a man, bruh - you know how it be goin down
Nigga be straight project livin uptown
