Sacrifice Songtext
von Bobby Fishscale

I had to sacrifice some years to show ′em that I'm real
I had to sacrifice some years to show ′em that I'm real
Show 'em, uh, ayy

I had to sacrifice some years to show ′em that I′m real
I seen so much shit, I shed so many tears
I had to sacrifice some years to show 'em that I′m real
I seen so much shit, I shed so many tears

I seen my brother laid out when he got killed
I seen the feds give my other brother forty years

I'm from where you either sellin′ dope or poppin' pills
I seen so much shit, sometimes I swear it give me chills
I swear it give me chills thinkin′ 'bout that closed casket

Damn, I miss my brother, I wonder, don't know what happened
I seen the nigga who did it, but somethin′ made me spare him
I would not be here right now if I sprayed that boy in traffic
They tellin′ me I'm blessed, they tellin′ me I'm lucky
But you wasn′t in the projects with me trappin' off that huffy


They say you ′member this, they say you 'member that
But I was just off in the county, you ain't send me jack
You ain′t think that I would make it
Studio time, you thought that was time that I was wastin′
Last week, I was cookin' rocks, now I′m at Roc Nation
Fuck security, still got the Glock 40 without no safety
I sacrificed so many years, you pay if you hate me

I had to sacrifice some years to show 'em that I′m real
I seen so much shit, I shed so many tears
I had to sacrifice some years to show 'em that I′m real
I seen so much shit, I shed so many tears

I done seen the other side of the fuckin' fence

I done made a goulash out a fuckin' trail mix
If it don′t make dollars, it ain′t never made sense
I done got rich off my family strugglin'

When I tell ′em that my grandma walkin', they be lovin′ it

They was scared to rep the projects, but you know I love the bricks
My dog geekin' off that molly, but I never tried that shit
The label just made a deposit, I ain′t gotta touch that shit
Time to go to mama closet, gotta dig up all that shit
I done did so much time, but I never joined a clique
I got money on my mind, you be thinkin' with your dick


I done did so much time, now it's time for me to get rich
I done made it out the trap, but I think I′ma miss that shit
I remember the last syrup I cooked was thicker than a bitch
I remember the last plate I sold was shorter than a bitch
I had to sacrifice some years, now they gon′ pay to hear this shit

I had to sacrifice some years to show 'em that I′m real
I seen so much shit, I shed so many tears
I had to sacrifice some years to show 'em that I′m real
I seen so much shit, I shed so many tears
