What I Came For lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, vibe to this, DJ Flash, Little Brother
Shouts to the 919, 252, 336, 704 (Yeah)
You know what it is (Uh), let's go to work

[Verse 1: Rapper Big Pooh]
Yo, this been years in the makin'
And when I talk about them years
I'm talkin' 'bout the blood, sweat, and tears
From the routes I was takin'
Tryna avoid the dark cloud
Took a couple L's, never lyin' on the ground
Offer me a inch, I want the whole mile
Wouldn't thinkin' 'bout the future
Tryna live for the now
My momma want a house still
And my brother need lawyers for appeal
No deal if the terms don't appeal
Turnin' to a new page
Kids don't read books
Ownin' a little data can be celebrated
Endurin' the test of time is an attribute
I put my rep on the line every time I design a new rhyme
Y'all sketches sound kinda cute
You drawin' other conclusions, your opinion moot
Rapper here for the bag, I need a new suit
[Chorus: Phonte, Darien Brockington]
Nobody move, nobody gets hurt
It's time to do work, tell 'em
Just gimme what I came for
If you got it out the mud, you ain't scared of the dirt, tell 'em
Just gimme what I came for
Where you from? Get you some, n*gga
Just gimme what I came for
Oh yeah (Oh yeah), oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Tell them people what you here for

[Verse 2: Phonte]
Man, life is marvelous
Word to Paul Wall, I'm with all the sh*ts
No matter how narrow the margin is
For the art of it, not the artifice
Gotta stay forthright
'Cause 2020 ain't sh*t without foresight
County boy, Wake, Durham, Guilford, and Forsyth
Where you can hear some Bill Withers under porchlights
Settle down, find a nice girl and just chill wit' her
Stay low and build wit' her, like Fortnite
But while my city was fast asleep
Before the South was bumpin' Master P
My Ghetto Dope was Bizzie Boyz, Nyborn, and Mixmaster D (Mixmaster D)
Who ever thought it would get passed to me
To write these songs, the fight goes on
The nights is long and regimented
So I can go on a run that's unprecedented
Them bars is comedy, King, n*gga, you Eddie Griffin
Two pulls and a sip, now here's to better livin'
[Bridge]
I saw a miracle tonight, it's got me feelin' new (Yessir, yessir)
Livin' inside of a dream
Jump into a car to drive, right down 85
Comin' home to you (One time, slow down)

[Chorus: Phonte, Darien Brockington]
Nobody move, nobody gets hurt
It's time to do work, tell 'em
Just gimme what I came for
If you got it out the mud, you ain't scared of the dirt, tell 'em
Just gimme what I came for
Where you from? Get you some, n*gga
Just gimme what I came for
Oh yeah (Oh yeah), oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Tell the people what you here for

[Outro]
Tell the people what-people what-people what
Tell the people what you're here for-here for-here for
Tell the people what-people what-people what
Tell the people what you're here for-here for-here for
Tell the people what-people what-people what
Tell the people what you're here for-here for-here for
Tell the people wh-people wh
Tell the people-people what you're here for
