T.I. - Big Ol Drip lyrics

[T.I.] Still hustlin' at five in the mornin' These retro Jordan's ain't never walked a mile And I'm knowin' no matter what they said, heavy the head Who said sh** would be simple? To get rich and stay out the trunks of Lincoln Continental Remember back to get by applyin' fundamental In these streets you either eat or become dinner Ain't sh** to win when you already got it all But go from havin' no options to buyin' mansions, Versace and sh** [Watch the Duck] You don't know the risk if you ain't carried the weight If you ain't never been down the road that wasn't already paved Some sh** I don't remember, And some I'll never forget Ain't nobody give me nothin', ain't nobody tell me sh** Big ol' drip [T.I.] Okay, now all did our thang Now, can't nobody tell me a b**h a** thang 'Cause there weren't nobody around when it was me and the squad Trappin' in the shadows, sellin' crack in the dark Push boys, I wonder sometimes it didn't matter to God That I didn't have no hot water and my stomach would growlin' Learned to think outside the box watchin' n***as around me And bein' stupid, that'll have ya a** in the county And bein' dumb'll get ya shot, boy Pay close attention when n***as run in your spot, ready for you to die That's why you better have your head on a swivel and your antennas up f**ed around, get k**ed by a police the way you reachin', bruh When the odds stacked up against you, if nothin' eventually ain't gained Gotta do more than sit and complain Every album I made was a product of pain You really think you ain't gon' change comin' far as I came? Come on [Watch the Duck] You don't know the risk if you ain't carried the weight If you ain't never been down the road that wasn't already paved Some sh** I don't remember, and some I'll never forget Ain't nobody give me nothin', ain't nobody tell me sh** Big ol' drip [T.I.] Dangerous lifestyle from jumpin' the turnstile Refused to pipe down, the sh** we would burn down Distress is everywhere, some sh** you just gotta turn down And ain't no freebies in this sh**, you get what you earned now Yeah, you live and you learn but you reap what you sew And your intention ain't what you'll be held accountable for It's your actions, it don't matter what you do for yourself If every time somebody call on you and you ain't no help That ain't no king sh** All that stuff you buyin', it don't mean sh** On some boost your self-esteem sh** 'cause you ain't seen sh** Callin' me an activist, stumbled on it by accident You can see I'm pa**ionate but not a politician though On IG I'm k**in' that fashion sh**, I be drippin' with Raf Simons trench coat, cashmere turtleneck How did I get three piece pinstripe with the collar bar Rose gold cuff link, same as the Audemar? [T.I.] Hey, back against the wall, would you risk it all? I figure if I could get me some, I could get it all Started with a bankroll small as a tennis ball Now in my city I'm big as Pac and Biggie Smalls God with me, whom shall I fear There no more beggin' folk for sh** we oughta get ourselves, and Just so I'm clear, what it took to get here, you got no idea For real [Watch the Duck] You don't know the risk if you ain't carried the weight If you ain't never been down the road that wasn't already paved Some sh** I don't remember, and some I'll never forget Ain't nobody give me nothin', ain't nobody tell me sh** Big ol' drip
