Tee Grizzley - Foreword lyrics

(Helluva made this beat, baby)

If I tell my people I love 'em
I really mean it (I do)
Niggas better not trip out in public
We bound leave 'em (Fast)
Ain't no sense in tuckin' my chain
They still gon' see it (Too big)
Micheal Myers, Jason Voorhees
This bitch a demon (No cap)
You jumped off the porch when? I
Was never on that bitch (Never)
I ain't have a chance to be a kid
That shit was over with (Damn)
They was out here doin' dope
I was on some sober shit cool nigga
But you play with me and get over hit (Boom)
I can tеll you all 'bout the
Trenches 'causе I lived in it (Bitch, I did)
Got money, took cover, and I slid in it
(I slid in it) when the feds did a sweep
My niggas hid in it (They hid in it)
But I can't really speak on all
The shit we did in it (Shh)
I can switch names, put a spin on the plot
(And fool 'em) say what they need
They gon' put me on the cell block
(Can't do it) i gotta teach
You don't hear this type of shit a lot
(You don't) tell you what you can keep doin'
And what you gotta stop (Chill out)
Ayy, playin' by the rules
You gon' end up gettin' lost (Facts)
Real niggas lose, snitch niggas gettin' off
(I seen it) soft niggas steppin'
Real killers gettin' soft (I seen it)
It's crazy when you see a lame with it all
Nigga make it for a long
Time in the dope gang, he a rat
Real niggas never make it last
(You know that) gettin' money
Tell 'em cut you in and they might cut back
(Niggas hoes)
Niggas ball hog, never pass (Never)
They say a happy ending shouldn't even
Have no pull to it (It shouldn't)
Dead or in jail
The streets'll never be good to you (Facts)
They vouchin' for niggas that ain't
Really hood to you (He a bitch)
No rules
Your main homie'll put that wood to you
(Brrah)
And these hoes'll do whatever in advance
Act like they in love
They really got different plans (yeah)
A fake nigga with whatever just
To get a chance (I seen it)
Until he get ahead
He gon' act like he your mans
(Man, I done seen this shit)
One wrong move'll get you
Stopped at the beginning (Just like chess)
It's only for the moment if you winning
Tryna be a good nigga
They gon' turn you to a menace
Nigga, fall and you finished (Finished)
Chapters of the Trenches (Trenches)

Spit it 'cause I lived it, nigga
Chapters of the Trenches (Ah, ah, ah)
Can spit it 'cause I lived it, nigga
Chapters of the Trenches (Ah, ah)
Can spit it 'cause I lived it, nigga
Chapters of the Trenches (Ah)
Can spit it 'cause I lived it, bitch
Chapters of the Trenches (Let's get it)

Brodie said, "Be in the 'fore the streets
Light or you in trouble" (Huh?)
Nigga, that shit went in one ear
Through out the other (Okay)
I was still outside 'til 2 AM, I was thuggin'
Niggas makin' threats, we like, "Fuck 'em
Niggas ain't on nothin'" (Come do it)
Robberies, homicides, brothers dead
Mamas cryin' (What else?)
I was still down to ride
(yeah) , jump out with that llama flyin'
Sharin' clothes, choppin' dimes
Servin' fiends a lot of times
Can't listen when they speak
On them trenches, niggas ain't qualified
(Bitch)

Spit it 'cause I lived it, nigga
Chapters of the Trenches (Ah, ah, ah)
Can spit it 'cause I lived it, nigga
Chapters of the Trenches (Ah, ah)
Can spit it 'cause I lived it, nigga
Chapters of the Trenches (Let's get it)
Can spit it 'cause I lived it, bitch
Chapters of the Trenches

Nigga, I lived it, nigga
This ain't no shit I ain't heard about, nigga
This ain't no shit I saw on
TV, nigga, I was right there, nigga
Fuck you talkin' 'bout, nigga? Bitch
