Dave East – How We Livin

LYRICS

[Chorus]
Welcome to life, how we livin’
Shit, I gotta live right ‘fore they miss him
On my grind, if you blink, you might miss him
I might sip one more drink, just for rhythm
I might smoke one more spliff ‘fore I spin him
I might pull up on timin’ and kill him
I’m a hero, they paint me the villain
I know niggas that ain’t no convincin’
On your top, if I ever get mentioned
On your block with a hunnid lil’ niggas
Why you post and you ain’t in the picture?
Mix the cold and the game and come get you

Look, still, on my mission, I’m still with thеm niggas they talk about
Thеy see me in person, it’s not what these niggas been talkin’ ’bout

[Verse 1]
He thinks with his dick, called my lil’ bitch, once he gets drunk, she gon’ walk him out
I’ll make him a landmark up that parking lot
Right when he sees him, his heart’ll stop
Not with them niggas that talk a lot
Thinkin’ trouble ‘fore I I took another shot
It was really my brother, ain’t nothin’ to talk about
It ain’t nothin’ to talk about
I’m the type that’s gon’ shine when it’s dark inside
Hunnid shots, through the clip at apartment now
I ain’t tryna drive by, let’s go walk ’em down
Ain’t no Benz, got that pack, they kill order now

Still, on my mission, I’m still with them niggas they talk about
They see me in person, it’s not what them niggas been talkin’ ’bout

[Chorus]
Welcome to life, how we livin’
Shit, I gotta live right ‘fore they miss him
On my grind, if you blink, you might miss him
I might sip one more drink, just for rhythm
I might smoke one more spliff ‘fore I spin him
I might pull up on timin’ and kill him
I’m a hero, they paint me the villain
I know niggas that ain’t no convincin’
On your top, if I ever get mentioned
On your block with a hunnid lil’ niggas
Why you post and you ain’t in the picture?
Mix the cold and the game and come get you

Look, still on my mission, I’m still with them niggas they talk about
They see me in person, it’s not what these niggas been talkin’ ’bout

[Verse 2]
No one I can trust, seen fiends in a rush, Uncle tweakin’ off the dust
I had to be tough when my sneakers had holes, summer jeans, I was cut
Rubbin’ on luck, niggas had to fight the cold, only thing we had was us (Us)
They see how I’m cut, this a different type of fabric, found my passion on that bus
Let me fly South with a package in my bag, prayin’ that this shit don’t stop
Run the town, I might charge him a dime, hunt a town, it’s like thirty a pop
Life lessons that I learned from my Pop, he knows that the murder don’t stop
Like, you gon’ end up with a nurse or a plot? If I bury you, it’s gon’ hurt me a lot
Nigga, you ‘posed to get money and leave
I heard what he said, never stopped what I did (Never)
Had to get to it, I couldn’t ask Mama for Jordans
I learned to get shit how I live, still in the crib
Finna hop out with the red, right before she kicked me out (Kicked me out)
Used to have guns in the couch, but all of this hatin’ about
Like, once we get in, ain’t no way we be out

[Chorus]
Welcome to life, how we livin’
Shit, I gotta live right ‘fore they miss him
On my grind, if you blink, you might miss him
I might sip one more drink, just for rhythm
I might smoke one more spliff ‘fore I spin him
I might pull up on timin’ and kill him
I’m a hero, they paint me the villain
I know niggas that ain’t no convincin’
On your top, if I ever get mentioned
On your block with a hunnid lil’ niggas
Why you post and you ain’t in the picture?
Mix the cold and the game and come get you

Look, still, on my mission, I’m still with thеm niggas they talk about
Thеy see me in person, it’s not what these niggas been talkin’ ’bout

[Outro]
Whole conversation change as soon as I see niggas
Word to my mama, not a love
Well wishes, how the family doin’?
Online, it be gangsters, man
And keep that shit on the internet
Yeah, hahaha
