Big K.R.I.T., Bobby Creekwater - 4 Tha 1's lyrics

I did it for the ones that never had
The players that never will
Ride old schools ingrained in
Wheels of Steel
I know about the slums and hard times
Boats and sewers lines
Cops that kick doors in black eye shines
This more than rhymes i do it for the ones

I ain't the one for politicin'
Just liquor bottle sippin'
One the corners with my partners
Talkin' life after death
And the meaning of empty boxes
That sit on my shelf
Too real to beg for meals
Too proud to ask for help
I know we pray, we sell weed
Married for life
To this game we in my friend passed the rice
Let's get it, more than we got it
Fillin' my pockets with petty dreams
Of being king of parking lot and
My homie lobby until they shot him
Polo down blood spotted, so why bother
Being fresh
When you ain't fly enough for death
I don't do this for my health
But for those that ain't here

I did it for the ones that never had
The players that never will
Ride old schools ingrained in
Wheels of Steel
I know about the slums and hard times
Boats and sewers lines
Cops that kick doors in black eye shines
This more than rhymes i do it for the ones

I do it for those with less fortune
They ain't got a lot but yet
They still bless they portion
My mic got distortion but I
Talk this shit regardless
Thankful for my oddness in the
Neighborhood that birthed me
But then I talk that shit that
Make the government research me
Yea, I do my best, Pimp is gone, Bun here
After death I do the rest
How do me, and hopefully
They may say easy to do you
Know you feel like it's
In vain sometimes, nigga, we do too
We boohoo
Then we laugh, then we get up off our ass
Quietly acquire fortune so we
Yellin' free at last
We are so much more than
Any condo we ever closed
Can we keep if we get it, shit we never know

I did it for the ones that never had
The players that never will
Ride old schools ingrained in
Wheels of Steel
I know about the slums and hard times
Boats and sewers lines
Cops that kick doors in black eye shines
This more than rhymes i do it for the ones
