[Maino - Definition of a Thug lyrics]
Yo I come from a broken home
Had to hold my own
I was fourteen, dog, in the cold, alone
Had to eat, I stole, the streets got my soul
They keep telling me that I ain't
Gon' live to be grown
Couldn't sleep at home, when the beef was on
Had to man up, strap up and keep the chrome
Lot of my friends is gone
Got to keep it going i'm on to that block
It's where the crack rocks is sold
Guess my mother was high cause
My father was high
So I'm twisting up weed, nigga
I'm getting high see the look in my eyes
I'm just trying to survive
I'm still running, cops coming
Trying to swallow my lye
But I'm still getting mines
Rats still dropping dimes
Oh, Lord, keep it real in these streets
I'm trying man I'm far from a giant
With a heart of a lion
I won't bend and won't fold 'til
The day that I'm dying
Definition of a thug
I'mma grind and do what I have to
I'mma kill a nigga if I have to
Definition of a thug
Whatever happens, it'll just happen
I ain't no snitch, I ain't ratting
Definition of a thug
All I want is mines in stacks
Daydreaming with the nine on my lap
Definition of a thug
Til the day the Lord come for me
Even if the world don't love me
Nigga I'm a thug
Caught me in real charge
Look how it's real, y'all
Can't see the moon from inside
Of my cell bars i'm in the jail yard with
Muslims and real gods
Bloods and niggas that real hard
At times it feels odd
I ask if it's still God nigga front
I'mma hit his neck with a steel rod
I'm going home, y'all
Sometimes it feels far
No matter how you look in
My face I'm still scarred
I'm coming back down like I was in trap down
Let the whole hood know this
Nigga is back now
It's going back down, my Yankee cap down
Niggas shitted on me
Let's see how they act now
I came to crack down, back with the gat now
Run up on niggas just to
Hear it goes rrrat now
I won't back down, I can't rat, how?
Nigga I'm a thug, better check my background
Hand on the Glock, man I will pop
Nigga I'm a goddamn soldier
Stand on the block, hand full of rocks
Mommy don't cry when it's over
Yo, look what I've been through
More than you've been through
Take a look at me and understand my mental
Cause niggas avenge you your singles
That's what they call a whore even a man do
I'm so sinful, the shit that I'm into
None of these rappers ever been
Where I've been to
Thug ain't in you, so don't pretend to
I'm the definition of a
Dude that'll end you
Had to hold my own
I was fourteen, dog, in the cold, alone
Had to eat, I stole, the streets got my soul
They keep telling me that I ain't
Gon' live to be grown
