We Were Kings

[Intro] Ay yo Black Diamond Sometimes it take that soul to get this shit up out a nigga, you know what I'm sayin? But I'mma let em know No love [Hassani Kwess] If these hoes wanna choose, let em choose then Dimes ain't shakin with squares, fuck you been? And I'm in the club tryin to find a new friend Never chase my vodka with juice, it's too thin I know you feel me if you do liquor Hard times and the brew get me through quicker But you gotta know your place when you play your part Cause thats why OG's ain't fuckin with them new niggas Listen to me, I got a dream and I scheme up a storm on my block I wind up green, fiends won't crack what I rock On the block I'm from, they ain't got the talent I got I nut up, take off the vest, when life shoots me, my shot I already got a burden, and it's called the struggle When you're rich, it's rap, when you're broke, it's called a hustle And the doubt that you won't make it out is called a muzzle And what the weak call pain, I call it muscle And I work it out It hurts sometimes, but damn life is worth it now And I'm tryin to fill the void like a hole in me While my damn demons tryin to keep the hole empty I'm tryin to live it but the pessimism holdin me If I see him, I keep going, it's the soul in me Let him know a nigga breathe, I swear to god I'mma rob cats if I don't get a better job But that ain't in me, so I'm drivin with the tank empty I better ball, so I rhyme and stay Kwess for y'all I'mma let it off, I'mma let it off So I rhyme and stay Kwess for y'all I'mma let it off [Hook] You don't know what you had But you're gonna find I ain't so bad When I'm gone and you're alone No one to give it to you Cause now I know where it's at That's right I'm wrong It's such a drag that The bitch is back But not for long [Uno Hype] The way I see the game, damn homie it's so fucked up Sayin that I looked up, I climbed up the ladder Now I'm at the top like what's up Nothin comin away of it, except homie that wanna hate on me, but that's a given Tell the world to wait on me if this ain't what they feelin Until then, I'm grindin with the same clique, I be on the same shit No respect to them lames you be hanging with, got everybody bangin this Homie double teamin so I'm droppin this, dip it like Stojaković Tell everybody watch this shit, I'm about to drop 30 on you niggas Goin for the gold, James Worthy on you niggas Blowin eights of purp, I'm like Kobe on you niggas The color gettin darker on the pictures Standin in the room while the lights keep flickin Time still passin, blunts still ashin Young Uno used to be ashin, fuck all the chicks that pass him Tell em to keep it classy, nigga Sittin' there your little throne The queen of right got no king of wrong To bring it on you play on Go find someone else You never felt this before But I don't feel the same anymore Cause I don't need this shit goin' on
