QD - For My People Lyrics

This For My People
You put your selfish ways away
When you realize that niggas need you
This For My People
You got somebody to speak through
Walk the same lines but we ain't equal
This For My People
Praise you when you at the steeple
You fall off and they gone leave you
Is For My People
But these streets ain't peaceful
So make sure to keep yo peace full
But I did this one for home
To reminisce on all my realness when I'm gone
All those sleepless nights
Endless flights that's I was on ironically
Left me right where I should've been all along
They say when you got more people
They believe you
But when I'm wit my niggas
You just feel that I'm deceitful
All of that energy just seem evil
So tone it down, turn it around
Live is what we do (uhn)
Raised in the jungle, but I came from the zoo
So the instincts that I knew
Helped me think my way through
And I do it for my town
Though they trying to tear me down but
My name gone stay around like the blue store
Did a lot but still gotta prove more, now
I just want the royalties
Care less about a crown
Cause the things that glitter
Impressed a nigga, never
So we gone lit forever
Now that I got shit together
This For My People
You put your selfish ways away
When you realize that niggas need you
This For My People
You got somebody to speak through
Walk the same lines but we ain't equal
This For My People
Praise you when you at the steeple
You fall off and they gone leave you
Is For My People
But these streets ain't peaceful
So make sure to keep yo peace full
