Nipsey Hussle - Status Symbol lyrics

(feat. Buddy) [Verse 1 - Nipsey Hu$$le:] Me I'm getting, back rubs from these leather seats Negotiating equity positions you'll never be Rap sheet full of felonies Status symbol on my set of keys They say I was selling dreams Back to the brick wall I'm inhaling trees Visualizing hella cheese you can smell the weed n***as doubt pessimism ain't affecting me Fuel to the fire took it higher than they ever see Frequent flight seat like seven seas Shopping spree spent about 11Gs Eyes bloodshot I don't ever sleep My n***as act on instinct we don't ever think When confronted with a problem we don't ever flee We connected at the bottom like the letter V So accustomed to the pop we don't even blink When them shots go off get the Glock show off Yellow tape a n***a he grew up to hate a n***a Nothing major n***a just a demonstration n***a Within the matrix n***a I drew illustrations with him Words that is, for sure that is Look, that n***a got his off the curb, that is So how the f** that n***a so concerned with his I be baffled by the fact when n***as burn their bridge Then try to double back like, what the f** is that? Like, n***as want this rap life way too bad [Hook - Buddy:] We ain't gotta worry no more We'll be just fine And we ain't finna wait no more So don't waste my time Remember when we had no way, no way But we'll be ok for now We'll be ok for now And here on out [Verse 2 - Nipsey Hu$$le:] Now you up huh? make it hard to trust huh? Got you f**ed up saying it was luck huh? Pulling up huh? limo tinted trucks huh? Open trust huh? Then you fill em up huh? Every time a n***a drop it's real as f** huh? Every time you hit the road you fill em up huh? Whole city know that you became the one huh? They seen it from the jump huh? The pressure weigh a ton huh? Especially where you come from Every night br-br-br-brap bump bump Heavy price but it's just the cloth you cut from It's alright it's just life if you want one Learn to hold yourself down with a big gun All these n***as playing tough you gon' chip one For these dollars a decade you a risk one f** it though cause when you flat broke you ain't nothing bro Seen a gang of rich n***as get comfortable Then looking at their watch like where the f** it go Through my eyes I learnt lessons like Time is of the essence and my grind got obsessive Then my mind got restless put myself in the game But batteries sold separate Question, since when do real n***as come second? So I kicked the door down getting more now n***a need at least like 30 for the show now Woah now, realest out of Sou. Cal Baby wanna f** I'm like mmm slow down I'm eating cheese eggs in my hotel Hustle sold out n***a retailing wholesale Me ball and hurt your feelings? Oh well All money in I pull coattails, n***a [Hook]
