G Herbo โ€“ Down By The River Lyrics [from โ€œGreatest Rapper Aliveโ€]

I Was Born By The River
Iโ€™m Working On Dying
In A Little Tent
Oh, And Just Like The River
Iโ€™ve Been Running
Ever Since
Itโ€™s Been A Long, A Long Time Coming
But I Know I Canโ€™t Go On
Oh, Listen To You

Itโ€™s True, I Done Been Through This
Itโ€™s Hard For You To Listen To Me โ€™cause You Ainโ€™t Been Through Shit
Shut Off My Mind And Follow My Heart, So I Took Plenty Risks
How The Fck You Hating On Me Like God Ainโ€™t Give Me This?

It Was Designed For Me To Fail When I Started
Long As Iโ€™m Breathing, Gotta Excel, So Iโ€™ma Win Regardless
They Get Depressed โ€˜Cause My Success,
But Iโ€™m The One With The Hardest
Knew The Coach, Seen Me Turn To A Jet,
Soon As That B!tch Departed

         

All The Dumb Shit I Did Was Just A Test, โ€™cause Iโ€™m The Smartest
Now I Look Back On My Life Like, I Was The Shit As A Kid
Walk In The Pits Black, With No Nightlight
All The Sneaky Shit Lit, Later Than All The Secrets I Hid
Running From Death, All The Reapers I Slid
Stuck In The Street, I Ainโ€™t Skiing To Bed
And Now I Hate To Be In My Head
Lonely, Afraid To Sleep In My Bed

Stuck In My Thoughts, Thinking
Had To Play Dumb When I Was Young,
Ainโ€™t Wanna Get Caught Thinking
Facing The Ground, Canโ€™t Look At The Sun,
Ainโ€™t Wanna Get Caught Blinking
Watched My Circle Get Knocked Off,
And Now We All Shrinking

Now Iโ€™m Always Drinking
Streets Made Our Heart Cold, Now We All Need Minks
Blood On That Money, It Ainโ€™t Green To Me
I Can Barely Tell You What You Mean To Me

         

Nick Canโ€™t Never Trade Me, I Donโ€™t Even Need A Team
Lifeโ€™s A Movie, But You Canโ€™t Play Me, I Donโ€™t Even Need A Scene
I Canโ€™t Get No Help, โ€™cause I Donโ€™t Need A Thing
Champion With No Belt, Never Received A Ring

Gave Out Too Much Love,
No More Love, I Ainโ€™t Feelinโ€™ Love
Gotta Go Cleanse My Body,
So Many Drugs, I Canโ€™t Feel A Drug
Drop Tears When I Get A Hug,
Got Too Used To Niggas Gettinโ€™ Slugged
Started Puttinโ€™ My Dogs In The Wall,
Got Too Used To Niggas Gettinโ€™ Dug

Six Feet, Everybody I Know, Six Feet
All The People I Knew,
Thatโ€™s What Hammers Gettinโ€™ Through You
I Get Killed Too, Try And B!tch Me
You Get Put On A Plate, Think Itโ€™s Shit Sweet
You Get Killed Broad Day, Try And Get To Me
I Get Up Every Day, Try To Get Rich, Itโ€™s Me
I Got More Cuban Links Than Mr. T

         

I Be Stressing Though, You Be Stressing Though
Then My Stress Just Add On To Your Stress Until We Stress Some More
I Was Stressing Less When I Was Broke, But Itโ€™s A Blessing Though
Itโ€™s So Hard For Me To Shake My Past, I Learn My Lessons Though

Where Iโ€™m Trying To Go, Sometimes I Donโ€™t Even Know
Mentally Iโ€™m Broke, Sometimes I Donโ€™t Even Show
I Be Planting Seeds, Sometimes I Donโ€™t See โ€™em Grow
I Was Supposed To Leave, Gave Up And I Never Spoke It

Caught A Fear, Canโ€™t Stand,
Lost My Nigga, It Got Me Back Totinโ€™
Iโ€™m Like, โ€œFck Niggas,โ€
But Heart So Big, It Got Me Wide Open
Scared To Leave My Energy With My Kids,
Got Me Outside Rollinโ€™
Comparing The Shit Iโ€™m Doing With
What I Did, It Got Me Back Smokinโ€™

Whatโ€™s My Destiny? I Know It
Will I Fulfill It? Shit, Iโ€™m Hopinโ€™
Itโ€™s My Passion And I Know It
Tell You Iโ€™m Thug, But Iโ€™m Coping
All This Money Donโ€™t Mean Nothing
Pass Out Hundreds Like They Tokens
In My Future I Canโ€™t Control It
But Iโ€™ll Be Damned If I Blow It
