DLP - That's What A G Is lyrics

[Intro: K-Rino] Some of y'all got it confused We're glorifying all this nonsense That life you think is cool, is an illusion Don't get caught in the confusion Umma tell you what a G is for real [Verse 1: K-Rino] When you lookout for your people When you bring the bread home to your fam without doin something illegal Recognizing that God love you Holding your children down even when the other parent trying to make it hard for you Swimming when it got deep Standing up for a greater cause even if it puts you in a hot seat Straight making a sacrifice When your homie need help you roll up like dice and they ain't gonna ask twice Real partners are minimal It's crazy when the bullsh** is at a high point and nobody's dependable The choice is right in front of you Telling somebody what you gonna do and when it's time to do it you'll be coming through Knowing truth and telling it Being the one to stop dope from being sold in the hood instead of selling it Learn to be the knowledge plug Let these youngsters see your positive influence in the neighborhood not a thug [Hook: K-Rino] x2 See that's what a G is You don't want to spend your whole entire life never knowing what free is Don't make the same mistakes that we did Some lessons get learned the hard way, the time of fixing em back will be years [Verse 2: K-Rino] Some of us can't read a word So we need to merge with our babies and let ‘em know its ok to be a nerd Watch what you discuss with ‘em Be respectful to these little girls, keep your hands off ‘em and don't be cussing ‘em Gotta learn to flip the game Let me explain that buying property is smarter than wasting money on strippers man While you out here trynna bawl Just know this trap has been designed for y'all and so day you'll be doing time behind the wall Let your knees hit the floor If you got blessings you can get some more if you go and share those blessing with the poor Wise words can save a child Let's change the world, yeah it might take a while but when you see somebody down make him smile Might not feel me I suppose But eyes open soon as knowledge grows, its childish to judge a person by their clothes Put hate on its d**h bed Never follow what someone else said if you know its ignorant be self-lead [Hook: K-Rino] x2 See that's what a G is You don't want to spend your whole entire life never knowing what free is Don't make the same mistakes that we did Some lessons get learned the hard way, the time of fixing em back will be years [Verse 3: K-Rino] Hanging up when things seem dismal Gangsters don't shoot pistols they launch missiles Real Gs can front a situation with the quickness They don't run around telling all of their business Helping people without expecting something from ‘em Never let a man violate your woman Checking ego when the time comes along Being big enough to admit it when you're wrong Speaking your mind like a man with no gossiping Being happy when other people are prospering Violate your instincts, chill if it's wrong to you Never try to take nothing that don't belong to you Realness is permanent, fake is temporary Never started but finish it if necessary Surround yourself with wise people to enhance you Whatever question you got, God is the answer [Hook: K-Rino] x2 See that's what a G is You don't want to spend your whole entire life never knowing what free is Don't make the same mistakes that we did Some lessons get learned the hard way, the time of fixing em back will be years
