Nasih - Currency Lyrics

Ayo I grew up in a time when idols ain't got a chance to be our rivals
Cuz they poppin pills and overdosing on nyquils
Mainstream promise that the drugs are great
But they seem to not cover the final fate
Bad taste
All the big dogs show is that they eating a full plate
So we got kids starting young brain cells going to waste
Now we got them locked up for a drug case
We losing rappers from gun shots and bullet wounds
Set up situations the outside world so confused
Jahseh, Gustav, Derrick
I know we still feel their spirits
It doesn't matter if coleman was cold man
Gustav made more than peeps when he came with greater plans
Jahseh xed out the streets when he showed his open hands
Mac showed me comedy belonged in rap
He showed me just to be myself and be all of that
But he swam too deep and got caught got trapped
Now we lost another life another shortened plaque
Now these fake fans wanna act like they knew the rapper could rap
Now that's wack
Respect death but don't hop on the wagon
I knew the artist to core before but I'm not braggin
Just saying don't use death to try to start swaggin

I miss these artists every day
Hits me hard in every way
They meant more to me than could be easily imagined
I felt their passion
I find myself always asking
Why the legends die young?
Why my idols experience stopped lungs?
This life that I live it ain't fun
I can never have a conversation
Never flip through my art turning pages
Never receive criticism for what I'm saying
From the ones who died from being famous
