Where I Stand ft. Nation Lyrics

This shit ain’t go like it was ‘posed to go

Now niggas act like they don’t know no mo’

But I get it. We supposed to grow

And this the path that I done choose.

You know where I stand

On my own like a man

You know where I stand

On my own like a man

What’s understood ain’t gotta be explained. We ain’t gotta see the same

But if you don’t look through my lens then you might be the aim

Karate Kid helped me see some thangs

A cracker got a leg up when a yang taught ‘em to be The Crane

Released them chains from off my brain. It ain’t no stoppin’ me

From opening the minds of my people like craniotomies

Feeling like my family can’t stand me. Ain’t really proud of me

Embarrassed by my stances. Make more advances without a me

Reign pouring down on me from crackers with commas

Bringing rage from up outta me. One threatened my momma

Asked his name, but no sound to me. She know I’m ‘bout drama

He’ll get hit by that 44 like he Michelle Obama

‘Bout my family. My potnas. My cousin home from a dime

Ball hog in the mind. He ain’t droppin’ no dimes

Out here lookin’ for signs. Pray it all will be fine

At any time bitch you gone respect my mind. Yeah

This shit ain’t go like it was ‘posed to go

Now niggas act like they don’t know no mo’

But I get it. We supposed to grow

And this the path that I done choose.

You know where I stand

On my own like a man

You know where I stand

On my own like a man

My O.G. said that there’ll be days like this

There’ll be days like this

My O.G. said that there’ll be days like this

There’ll be days like this. My O.G. said

Never get exposed. I’m the chosen one. One can’t come close to be cozy

Burdens I tote like a Trojan horse. It’s in motion with golden gloves

I’m coast to coast boasting bout what I know. Will you open up

Big gangsta. No crippin’ but playin’ Nip when we rollin’ cuz

Can’t believe I made nothin’ from somethin’. Shit I’m just hustlin’

Only thing remain the same is that everything changes. Fuck it

They say hard work pays. I got that crack from Point City

Look what that hard work made. I’m a hundred exact to the pennies

I was lookin’ down on these niggas. I had my back to the ceiling

Sky is the limit. I was trippin. Now I’m back in my feelings

Still I’m livin’ check to check. I was supposed to advance

Back in the game with double zeroes. Melo poachin’ again

This shit ain’t go like it was ‘posed to go

Now niggas act like they don’t know no mo’

But I get it. We supposed to grow

And this the path that I done choose

You know where I stand

On my own like a man

You know where I stand

On my own like a man
