Nipsey Hussle, Kokane - Paid My Dues lyrics

Now it's a possibility
That I can come from nothing to having it all
Now it's a possibility
That I ain't gonna have it all and fall
But, I stand tall
I've been down for so long
You really want a chance so
I done paid my dues, my dues, my dues
I got to go, up to the top

Wassup Loc
Shit I'm just out here tryna make it
Moms keep trippin' and a nigga can't take it
Sick of standing on these same corners
Tryna come up finna run up in the bank
Hold my mother fuckin' gun up
Life, got a nigga so frustrated
All my real niggas is dead or incarcerated
Finna fill a nigga with lead
Show em what they made me
Give em what they gave me back


Feel my hatred
Click clack pop, was addicted to the six shot
Fiennin' for a fix like a
Smoker on the Vic block
Hoppin' out, getting high when the shit pop
Leaving bullet holes in the bricks
In front of Big Lots
When I was broke, I hustled
Learned the game and I bubbled
Took my birthday money on Brynhurst
And made it double
Snitches on the block always call
The cops on us
Knowing damn well we got rocks on us
Holla at us

Now it's a possibility
That I can come from nothing to having it all
Now it's a possibility
That I ain't gonna have it all and fall
But, I stand tall ive been down for so long
You really want a chance so
I done paid my dues, my dues, my dues
I got to go, up to the top

Life's like a dice game
Shake em' up, throw em'
There's rules to this shit
Niggas fake they don't know em'
Number 1, scared money don't make none
And number 2, bullshit we don't take none
Never tell a bitch your plans or
Bring her to the house
Don't speak about a man
Keep his name out your mouth
See that'll be the shit that'll
Get a nigga knocked off
Not the pussy, but the principal
Cause jealousy is a felony
Now when you grinding, nigga dress bummy
Fuck clothes ask yourself
Are you in it for the money or the hoes
You content with a cutlass or
You reaching for a rolls?
You straight up on them stocks says
You fucking with them foes
I seen them quarters turn to halves
And halves to wholes
And now we hit the mall
We buy half the store
I had a Bentley coupe dream with
A S up on the hood
Nigga ain't about to hustle
He get left up in the hood

Now it's a possibility
That I can come from nothing to having it all
Now it's a possibility
That I ain't gonna have it all and fall
But, I stand tall ive been down for so long
You really want a chance so
I done paid my dues, my dues, my dues
I got to go, up to the top

Me and my brother we was broke as
A bitch on some hopeless shit christmas day
We helped the homie open his gifts
But, I ain't trip though
Cause im from where they flip dough
And when they ask where you from
You tell them Six Oh let's get rich bro
It's time to get some big dough
Sunday nights on the 'shaw niggas rich roll
I used to only want to hit
A switch and flip hoes
Now im thinking bigger man
It's time to get home
On the East Side I used to
Buy stress and flip zones
108 late night, I pray I get home
Alotta niggas die young they never
Got to get old
Like Too Tall, Tiny Squeeze, Taca and S Dome
Don't know if you hear me
Lord these niggas tryna kill me
So if I chip em' would you feel me
Now if you feel me
Lord these niggas tryna kill me
If I was your child would I still be

Now it's a possibility
That I can come from nothing to having it all
Now it's a possibility
That I ain't gonna have it all and fall
But, I stand tall ive been down for so long
You really want a chance so
I done paid my dues, my dues, my dues
I got to go, up to the top
