Hopsin, Swizzz - I Am Raw lyrics

You motherfuckers are quick to judge it's
All good though you don't
Know shit about shit if you
Only knew what I knew
If you only knew what I could
Do if you could only
See what I could see you
Would probably stop bothering me

Yeah i independently started this shit
Marketing hit's starving for chips
No gasoline to start off the whip
Felt like the only nigga
Labels wasn't bargaining with
My heart has been ripped
I stuck with it as hard as it gets
These producers would always blow me off
Now that I'm blowing up, they don't recall
Talking about "Yo, you my homie, dawg"
(My nigga)
Oh, now you wanna hop on the Hop train


Knowing damn well since '04 I had hot flames
(The fuck outta here)
My real buddies was mainly the worst
Hating to shoot my videos without
Me paying them first
So I slide 'em 100 bucks to watch
'em bitch on how it ain't enough (Man)
That money got my cell
Internet and cable cut!
A real homie would've gave a fuck
And not expect to pay upfront
Then get the money later when I'm making some
Nobody saw the bigger picture except me
They neglect me
Only thing that protects me is FV (Come on)

You don't always have to stick by my side
Just make sure you remember me when I die
I am raw, I am raw
Just to let you niggas know
Bitch I am raw, I am raw
Don't forget me when I'm gone bitch I am raw

I was a high school grad
Preparing to go to college
An enthusiastic freshman, major in Economics
I didn't have a clue what
To expect to be honest
Banging beats in my dorm
Streaming Pornhub constant
I figured I could make it
Out in four years tops
Study religiously and graduate
Apply for a job the rap thing was secondary
I was putting it off calling it quit's
Assuming I had better chances playing ball
(Yep)
My third year came and suddenly that changed
I couldn't bear watching my mom
At home suffering pain
Tryna fight off the strain of
Only having half a stomach
Plus a handicap back from a
Surgery that helped nothing!
So I returned to the valley
And called the homie
Hop was on Ruthless getting
Shelved like a trophy
I told him how I left my life in the OC
And we concluded that we could both use FV

You don't always have to stick by my side
Just make sure you remember me when I die
I am raw, I am raw
Just to let you niggas know
Bitch I am raw, I am raw
Don't forget me when I'm gone bitch I am raw

This was written for niggas who
Wouldn't give me dap
Niggas who told me that I had sissy rap
This was written for all the bitches I used
To called who never hit me back
Until they heard the word I was buzzing
C'mon don't give me that (Shit)
You backed out
Now you tryna roll with my clique?
Where the fuck were you when
My signing bonus was spent?
Where the fuck were you when I
Got the notice for rent
Saying I was getting evicted and
I was hopeless as shit?
See I keep some names handy and
You got thrown on the list
That's how you know that I'm
Pissed, I got you, don't even trip
'Cause, I'm rude over the nicest beats
You had to go ignite the heat
You might agree to beef
But yo I'm not the type you'd like to meet
Life's indeed a journey that I
Have yet to finish
Hopefully my career's something that
Will be epidemic
You'll always know that it's Hopsin the
Way I wreck a sentence
Realness, I represent it, raw
I'm the definition

You don't always have to stick by my side
Just make sure you remember me when I die
I am raw, I am raw
Just to let you niggas know
Bitch I am raw, I am raw
Don't forget me when I'm gone bitch I am raw
