Big Sean, Nipsey Hussle - Deep Reverence lyrics

Hit-Boy g ry got me
Look

Fuck rap, I'm a street legend
Block love me with a deep reverence
I was birthed in a C-section
Hella cops and police presence
We got opps so we keep weapons
We on y'all block while y'all eat breakfast
A lot of shots, we broke street records
Watch how you talk, I got reflexes
Watchin' your cheap necklace
Then we slide out the East exit
But every time we get to fuckin' niggas up
TMZ catch it
Y'all still learnin' street lessons?
From the mastermind, first you master grind
Then your team catch it
This time it’s for the money
I don't need credit
And I'm the don 'cause the streets said it


Look

Fuck rap, I'm a street legend
And I'm the don 'cause the streets said it
Block love me with a deep reverence
(yeah, woah)
And I'm the don 'cause the streets said it
(yeah)

And I got pressure on me
Seven days a week, it's game seven on me
Life'll test you out, you live through that
That's testimony givin' them hell
But how in the hell I got
All these blessings on me?
Most of the girls I know
Addicted to social media
All the time they put in
They could've wrote encyclopedias
Mama said it only takes one time
To fuck up your whole Wikipedia
And as your son, i can see the type of light
That you see me in
After what happened to Nipsey
I reached out to Kendrick
It wasn't even no real issues
There to begin with
Lack of communication and wrong information
From people fueled by their ego
It's like mixin' flames with diesel
Energy crazy
I realized that it's a two-way street
What's comin' is goin', if it
Don't give you more, it drains you
Should be a billionaire based on the
Time off I'm not takin'
Probably why this shit with me get
Crazy and we lost a baby
And everybody around me think I'm the one
But we all just one of ones
And I'm walkin' out the crib
They ask me where I'm goin', I told them
"I'm going on another ten-year run"
Niggas is bangin' over blocks
That they don't own, thinkin' that's home
Boy, you think that's where you from? You
Don't really know where you from
You don't how deep your roots is
Or what your ancestors had done
So, God bless all of the sons and daughters
Who knew they history so they knew
Where to take it farther
And all the ones that stuck
With me like good barbers
Lookin' at my life story, God's a good author
Never was the loudest in the room
We move like ninjas
And if it cost your peace of mind
It might be too expensive
So I can't give you everything that you
Want from me for free though
Get you one shot in life
You might not be able to reload
So advanced, I need all my advances
Bro hit me up for cash like
We didn't have the same chances
My dad hit me up like
"Why I don't live in a mansion?"
I'm tryna focus
But baby girl keep holdin' my mind for ransom
And that ain't how it supposed to be
This man Hov got to a B
And his name Shawn too
I almost felt like it was me
Damn, I realized all my setbacks
Were inside of me
In high school, I learned chemistry, biology
But not how to cope with anxiety
Or how I could feel like I'm
By myself on an island
With depression on all sides of me (Damn)
With a Glock seventeen right on
The side of me (Hol' up)
Look, I ain't think I had the
Thought of suicide in me
Until life showed me all these
Different sides of me
Too many times I thought the
Reaper was outside for me (O oh)
And how the fuck it's people that
Never met me that hate me?
I wonder if they understand
That I meditate daily
And feel like my life purpose
Is to give inspiration
Despite the hit songs that
There's just no escapin'
That I take care of my family and
Beat the odds that were deadly
You hate that, that just reflects
Your lack of succession, bless 'em
If it ain't Nipsey blue, it's Detroit blue
This that Detroit 2
I'm bringin' it back to my
Hood like d-boys do gone (Gone)

So, the collaboration though
With Nipsey and who?
Aw man, I'd probably say Payroll, eh
Or Tee Grizzley me and Big Sean talked
About doin' somethin' recently, too
So, you know, all of them, I'ma
I'ma tap in with all of Detroit
Fuck rap, I'm a street legend
Block love me with a deep reverence
