K-Rino - O.G. Salute lyrics

One time for the boys who laid the foundation
OG salute, OG salute, OG salute
If it ain’t you, don’t claim it, get it in

One time for the boys that
Done bled the block
Now they shacked down on that bus, headed out
Did what they had to do whether scared or not
Them the ones that the
Hood can’t forget about
So much game that it might
Give your brain a cramp
Thrown straight up in the fire
No training camp
A lot of boys talk a good game
Tryna get a few women and some hood fame
No actors man, this for real
Street skills so his family
Never missed a meal
And it’s a day to day operation
CEO of your own ghetto corporation
Since they don’t wanna give us reparation
We pull our pants down on ‘em fool
Defecation
And we gon’ give it to whoever want it
Boys talking like they did it
But they never done it
Yeah, this the OG salute
Yo hood, this the OG salute
My hood, the OG salute
My folks be the truth with proceeds to boot
Come on, OG salute every city, OG salute
Worldwide, this the OG salute
My folks be the truth with proceeds to boot

One time for the soldiers if y’all wanna know
And I ain’t talking about the
Ones that’s in the army, bro
Set up shop ‘cause he had
To make some longer dough
Made 20 racks at the
Neighbourhood corner store
Boys coming out the jacket with a dope packet
Clean serve after clean serve, no racket
You can’t relax with a snitch around
Two strikes and the judge is
On the pictures mound your partner gone
You can’t let that get you down
Had to step the game up
And cover bigger ground
Get it in until there ain't
No money left to make
Smart enough to learn from
Somebody else mistakes
As long as he comes first, that’s number one
Never turn cutthroat once the money come
Trained by the streets
Certified tougher than leather
Real OGs know they can’t hustle forever

Yeah, this the OG salute
Yo hood, this the OG salute
My hood, the OG salute
My folks be the truth with proceeds to boot
Come on, OG salute every city, OG salute
Worldwide, this the OG salute
My folks be the truth with proceeds to boot

How they blame us when they
The ones feeling the drama
J-Flex in the pen for defending his mama
Every day by the police, we get harassed
But every time they beat our
Ass they get a pass
Five cats here to lick, now they wanted men
One got caught didn’t tell
Took it on the chin
Better keep his books loaded
Up with no stress
Holding down for his family
For the whole stretch
And you ain’t never got your hands dirty
You in the game tryna
Wear another man’s jersey
Every day is a dollar day
Wannabe’s get spotted from a mile away
You still tryna keep the scam up
Boys’ll get it in for real, getting jammed up
Staying down, never change, I’m the same guy
You know a real G, never let their name die

Yeah, this the OG salute
Yo hood, this the OG salute
My hood, the OG salute
My folks be the truth with proceeds to boot
Come on, OG salute every city, OG salute
Worldwide, this the OG salute
My folks be the truth with proceeds to boot
