Lil' B - Unchain Me Lyrics
[Verse 1 - lil b]You could break me out the strait jacketThis hip-hop is just play actionI switch off and I keep smashingI'm a legend, ***** the rap-offThey say I can't do my thingI'mma build my own laneYou come in, you get ran overBut damn, you sober. I'm the guyThe I'll c like hovaBut I'm on another level andMy grind is over. the dayYou're on your backLike you're sitting in roversAnd he always prayed to godI'm just bringing him closerFeel like I'm doing a bidAnd my mind in angolaYou be food, then I'm coolThey tried to get overI stopped picking up my phoneI won't get any closerThey watching my every stepBecause I'm living in motionThey ask for my moneySeen it in the hoodI can't, feeling is openThey ask for my moneyEvery other day like I'm askingFor somethingBut when I had nothing they was laughingThey told me that I'd never make it rappingIt brings tears to see?But I told you that I'd make it14, I was living like my life was the pavementAnd I wanted to die, couldn't nobody save meNow I save my own self andI'm on and I'm famousAnd I deal with the hatersAin't nobody gonna take away what I built***** the death threats, small impostorsBut really got the loveBut they just choosing that optionWhen I started to live better, they started to hateI still got the same brain thatCaught all the casesI've still got the same eyes andSeen all the placesBut I ain't never been faking, it's not a gameIt's not the trail blazersThrowing shots but we dyingAnd the rap gameIt's the slave tradeNo time for meditationTurning into robotsThe devil is moneyIt's not even humanThe people die for a piece of paperIt's so stupidMan, live however you do itI guarantee, you see your life as a childAnd make you at your all, just makeSure that you smileBut dying every day, ma's look at me nowThere was hating, but I never stopI wanted to drop, but based godI gotta really notice my chanceMake history, manThree back, I was feeling like "damn!"You don't know how I feltWhen I was washing my handsOff that filth that was aroundI'd never be downOne the streets I'm goneI never be aroundCause the hood is a lieMan, you better wake up before you'reDead or surprisedI'm just trying to save myself manFor real, but they trapped in the middleDon't wanna go to schoolCause the teacher's too simpleI just wanna know where I come fromThe truth, tell me, before I desolveIt's connected to the woodsThe wilderness is my homeThe world say I'm bad because of my colorBut they don't get the factThat I say that I love youPeople given the option to hustleJust take it and, I swear to godIf you're willing to struggleOnce you pass the bottomYou gonna make it to the topIt's a lot of hate up in the worldJust make sure that you watch
