Intro
Yeah
Uh
West side
Check it
Verse 1
Woke up to the sunrise on cracked pavement
Mama worked doubles just to pay the rent
I ain't have a bike so I ran through the block
Learned early that the quiet ones get got
Now I move different when I step outside
Keep my circle tiny and my eyes open wide
They smile in my face then they talk behind
I peep the whole act I ain't blind
Pre-Chorus
So who really riding
Who really sliding
Who gonna fold when it's time to decide
Chorus
I do this to live not to prove nothing to you
I do this to live every scar every bruise
I do this to live put my people on too
I do this to live that's the only thing true
Post-Chorus
Live
Live
That's the only thing true
Live
Live
Verse 2
You claim you the hardest but you never been tested
Bragging on a block that you never invested
I built mine from nothing with patience and nerve
You borrowed your story you don't deserve
My cousin did years for a bag that ain't his
So don't tell me nothing about how real it is
I feed four mouths before I feed my own pride
You flex for the cameras I grind for the tribe
Pre-Chorus
So who really riding
Who really sliding
Who gonna fold when it's time to decide
Chorus
I do this to live not to prove nothing to you
I do this to live every scar every bruise
I do this to live put my people on too
I do this to live that's the only thing true
Bridge
Patience
Pressure
Prayer
I ain't chasing nothing that'll leave me bare
Count your blessings count your losses
Then count who stayed when it cost you
Chorus
I do this to live not to prove nothing to you
I do this to live every scar every bruise
I do this to live put my people on too
I do this to live that's the only thing true
Post-Chorus
Live
Live
That's the only thing true
Live
Live
Yeah
Uh
West side
