Lick Lyrics By Offset

    hey i took a couple of my dawgs on a lick
    do or die gotta survive pay the rent survive
    i was so broke that i could cry i was sick broke
    born in the wild so many trials i ain’t quit
    all the people i robbed i brought ’em down i repent down
    dirtied the money i let it drown watch it cleanse cleanse
    sellin’ these pounds a hundred times i jumped the fence
    breakin’ it down i made a pound turn to ten ten
    them hunnids ain’t found they in the ground don’t get spent
    they in the ground
    way back in the time black and brown you get lynched
    black and brown
    we was talkin’ him down he make a frown if he flinch
    gun him down
    see the pain in my eyes i hold it down ’cause i’m rich
    hold it down

    livin’ in the street concrete get rough street
    niggas tryna creep we eat gun bust creep
    think about my history back of the bus who
    fought for the rights but we still killed us who
    tryin’ not to be political it was ridiculed real
    ‘member i was in the middle school with a fit or two ‘member
    mama had the boy by herself it was critical mama
    started with the weed then codeine then a pill or two codeine
    hit one lick then i hit two lick
    kickin’ down the door then i ran through woo
    sticks in the van this ain’t bamboo sticks
    i got rich bought some land for my kids too whew
    take the risks for my fam for some damn food risks
    take my bitch out to france out to cancún france
    my wrist like a dam you can splash pool splash
    money root of all evil but the cash rule

    hey i took a couple of my dawgs on a lick
    do or die gotta survive pay the rent survive
    i was so broke that i could cry i was sick broke
    born in the wild so many trials i ain’t quit
    all the people i robbed i brought ’em down i repent down
    dirtied the money i let it drown watch it cleanse cleanse
    sellin’ these pounds a hundred times i jumped the fence
    breakin’ it down i made a pound turn to ten ten
    them hunnids ain’t found they in the ground don’t get spent
    they in the ground
    way back in the time black and brown you get lynched
    black and brown
    we was talkin’ him down he make a frown if he flinch
    gun him down
    see the pain in my eyes i hold it down ’cause i’m rich woo woo woo
    hold it down

    know some savages they tryna clean up and they won’t let ’em clean up
    streets done made my heart so cold need a whole sweater cold
    i was kickin’ in the back of doors but i know better hey
    you expose what you know then you go get it hey
    sow what you reap sow sleepin’ on my feet
    trust fund for my daughter son daddy plant a seed
    no bond when you do a crime slavery repeat slave
    slick minded they think we runnin’ a treasury who
    lost my homie it keep on hauntin’ me in my sleep
    lost my grandmama whole family incomplete
    stabbed in my back a million times this shit deep
    i was hittin’ licks doin’ crime for my seed
    broke now i got 5 cars it’s a fleet
    take notes make a bando turn ferrari i can teach
    struggled with the pain but i still turned out a beast
    i got out the chains now the world belong to me hey

    hey i took a couple of my dawgs on a lick
    do or die gotta survive pay the rent survive
    i was so broke that i could cry i was sick broke
    born in the wild so many trials i ain’t quit
    all the people i robbed i brought ’em down i repent down
    dirtied the money i let it drown watch it cleanse cleanse
    sellin’ these pounds a hundred times i jumped the fence
    breakin’ it down i made a pound turn to ten ten
    them hunnids ain’t found they in the ground don’t get spent
    they in the ground
    way back in the time black and brown you get lynched
    black and brown
    we was talkin’ him down he make a frown if he flinch
    gun him down
    see the pain in my eyes i hold it down ’cause i’m rich
    hold it down
