Nothing New Lyrics

They've got chains on their necks

Ice on their wrists

They say that they're "dripping" and hold up their fists

I might do that

But in the least

Still tryna keep the handcuffs off my wrists

Face full of tats

Couple piercings

I'm starting to feel like it's a black thing

All doing drugs

Prolly all thugs

Quit acting gangsta, you just need a hug

See, we're still really young

And most of us are blatantly dumb

Yeah

I keep it real

And so I ain't smoking, I ain't popping pills

Yes, I ain't smoking but I'm getting high

Higher than ever, I'm reaching the sky

Look, mom, I can fly, I'm not one to lie

You can't blame me, it's just 'cause I try (I try)

I try to stay in my zone

Danger comes calling, I pick up my phone

I'm not in danger, I am the danger

To risky things, I ain't no stranger (I ain't no stranger)

We don't do drugs (We don't do-)

No, we don't do drugs (Nope)

We acting like thugs

Yeah, we're acting like thugs

We pray

We fast

And we go to church

We decent and good

And listen to God

But in our songs, we sound like we thugs

We rap about cars, women and drugs

Hold up (Hold up)

Like that ain't enough

Homies pull up and mess with our trust

Don't open your mouth, please, just keep it shut

You shouldn't speak 'cause you're not one of us

You shouldn't speak 'cause you're not one for trapping or rapping or hip-hop or murdering beats

You should come clean and just quit all the acting, you're lacking, it's obvious you can't handle heat (You can't handle heat)

Yeah, I can tell you're scared

If you're afraid, then stay outta there

Yeah, just stay outta there

Got nothing good, then get outta here (Then get outta here)

Yeah, it's not that they're bad

I know they're good, it's just that it's sad

I like 'em, I'm not gon' pretend

In case you were thinking I'm tryna offend

They've got chains on their necks

Ice on their wrists

They say that they're "dripping" and hold up their fists

I might do that

But in the least

Still tryna keep the handcuffs off my wrists

Face full of tats

Couple piercings

I'm starting to feel like it's a black thing

All doing drugs

Prolly all thugs

Quit acting gangsta, you just need a hug
