Never Die Lyrics

Grouch Never Die

Never die, never die, never die
I been an independent hustler since '95
Never had no love for a 9 to 5
I grind like trucks mack like em too
I'm tryin' to make a buck and still stay true
East coast quick wit, west coast cool
Down South money mouth towned out fool
Universal music drowned out false rule
Say "fuck the system", but I'm no victim
LRG goin' fit em, and G goin' spit em
Messiah make the play, and we goin' hit em
They take the beat away and I still got the rhythm
I built that from livin' to the tick of my own heart
Didn't have a dollar just Dickies and Carhartt
White boy without a father more rare than aardvarks
I'm too smart the hard parts dumbin' down
You can't kill me I'm a legend, in every town
Never die, never die, never die
Nobody taught it to me I just thought it to be
And now all y'all can see how it is
Never die, never die, never die
Nobody taught it to me I just thought it to be
And now all y'all can see how we live
Future single mother the father's drunk
Didn't wanna bother just holler and cut
It's all or nothin' boy he wasn't worth much
How she gonna balance it?
Cause all that goes up... must fall
Four kids to dust off
She never missed a game but still got cussed out
By bad seeds no shut mouths to feed
9 to 5 plus when she cried I was crushed man
Deep stuff all of us in one room
Heat a towel under the door, mice up in the floor
Prices soar, city of dopes cold as ice gotta right no more
And everybody said Amen come Sunday
But ay man, what's up with all the strugglin'?
Someday I'm a be as strong as my mothers spirit
She's a legend for that you can't kill it
Never die, never die, never die
Nobody taught it to her she just thought it could work
All of this ____ from a seed
Never die, never die, never die
Nobody taught it to her she just thought it could work
After all of the hurt she's free
Over a decade deceased still a major piece
In this culture vulture's wanna eat, quote you on repeat
How you long you ago was you ballin'?
After you left thuggins everyone's callin'
Minus the conscious side tryin' to ride
Ambitions of that hip-hop homicide
In '95 most this shit wouldn't slide
West coast renaissance you was in the driver's seat
And in our hearts we keep you like Hendrix
And the great John Lennon how you went's horrendous
Is there a heaven for a G? yeah, probably
But is there rest if they can't solve the forensics?
It seemed offensive at first all the bitin'
But you know bout imitation
Now they teach what you were writin' in schools
Oh what the world's come to
Can't kill Pac's legend that's true
Never die, never die, never die
Nobody taught it to him he just thought it ___ him
All of this came from within
Never die, never die, never die
Nobody taught it to him he just thought it ___ him
And now we sing em like there's no end
