Foundations of a Man lyrics
by Nipsey Hussle
[Verse 1: Nipsey Hussle]
Here I stand, executed plans
Seven grams foundations of a man
Smoking backs, black rebel chants
Living fast my n*ggas ain't even last f*ck
In the back, .40 on my lap
Counting cash, anxious finna blast
Too committed to principals from my past
If you ever came from nothing that's something you understand look
[Verse 2: DCokah]
Is it cuz it's nothing like me, she like me
From the future move at light speed
Standing like a giant only five three
Them magic words I move like Magic, Worthy
Stop lying n*gga you ain't never heard me
Straight from the curb where 103rd be
f*ckin with Nipsey, n*gga we nippin' n*ggas
The K's from close reach'll flip a n*gga
[Verse 3: Nipsey Hussle]
Bullet sky blue tips like they crippin', n*gga
If a n*gga got 30 in it then I'm trippin', n*gga
Refrigerated cup holders when I'm sippin', n*ggas
f*ck work, sell words, it was written, n*gga
See the Staples Center from my kitchen, n*gga
On the phone with Forbes asking how I did it, n*gga
Snatched ol' girl it's official, n*gga
Always been a man on a mission, n*gga
[Verse 4: DCokah]
Streets gave to me and it stole from me
But it paid the way and the road for me
Shhh moment of silence for the homies that's resting in peace
Cuz they gave us seasoning for the recipe
No new n*gga just back on my B.I.Z
Thank god for locs I ran the N.I.P
No more N-O-P-E-s now it's Y-E-S-
And why yall stressed asking why we blessed
Nipsey just bossed the grind I'm a special guest
