Wale - DC or Nothing Lyrics
[Intro]In the face of adversity, I prepared a verse to seeOr hear rather...[Verse 1]Destined to win, get respect where I liveMy reflection contagious, I'm the messenger hereMaking love to the streets, they be lusting for breadThey ain't sleeping until they know every customer fedWhen the city was chocolate, there was death in the airAll I'm hearing is AIDS, I ain't deaf in my earNah... I ain't deaf in my earBut he push them whites in the hood like Ray Edmond was thereShout out to Kirbo, he told me I would make itNow me, Tony, G, and Tre got the keys to the nationPray for peace with the babies, they a beast in the summerOf course he fiending for trouble, he had a fiend for a motherGot no leaders among him, got no loyalty eitherOnce the police get to cuffing, bet his homie deceive himSee, it's cold where they be at, on that boat like a piratePoliticians *****ing hookers, why you mad at my ganja?Kick him out of the city, force them whites who can pay upStill different ablers killing over what isn't theirsLost my nigga over nothing thoughSaeed Alisha I miss you, god bless my brother's soul[Hook]I feel something change in the weather, and I'm home, home, homeDon't let it drift away like a feather and I'm home, home, homeAnd oh, I gotta find my wayOh I gotta face the dayBut oh I can't stay away, not never, your my home, home, home[Verse 2]Look, I lost my nigga over nothing thoughSaeed Alisha I miss you, god bless my brother's soulRicky is sitting, Baba was sittingCaught up and slipping for fearing a McDonald's positionSeen it over a dollar, got him under a flowerFuneral drama, niggas mystery baby mamasThey ain't really for condoms, I just think that it's shockingGot no fear in no officer, they be scared of them doctorsI'm aware that there's problems, know Obama gon' stop itWhere there's minimal conscience and there's thousands of choppersI know Howard that college, but that town has some problemsI done seen embalming fluid ruin a nigga promiseLittle women be mommas, little niggas ain't fathersAin't nobody here leading, it's way too easy to followThey knee deep in today, ain't too fond of tomorrowAlthough it gets you paper, I pray you weighing your optionsThis is soulful my nigga, I'm hoping I am giving a hope to my niggaWe just soldiers my nigga, don't know you my nigga but know you my niggaThis is soulful my nigga, hope that I am giving some hope to my niggaWe just soldiers my nigga, don't know you my nigga but know you my niggaNigga, know you my...And you know my niggaKnow you my...Look...[Hook][Verse 3]A king's assassination is why most often fear the hellSo needless to say this, leadership is not with a timid sailI pray these words live and these gimmicks fail andI pray whenever I'm seen in my city I forever resemble BrailleMay your trees be loud, and your queens be proudMay you see your dreams allowed, before you see them from a cloudMay your glass never reach half-empty, may your enemies find theInner-peace before it ever get to beefI wish you, wealth, health, and pact-free women for yourself and the shitAin't the best, hope these lyrics help... my nigga[Hook][Outro]See I made it from home, see I made it aloneAnd all these peasant mother*****ers take shots at the throneTime after time, again and againThey wanna see a nigga lose but I'm destined to win
