Khalifthe1st - Philly Birthplace Of America Lyrics

Let me tell you something you already know
The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows
It's a very mean and nasty place
And I don't care how tough you are
It will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it
You, me or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life
But it ain't about how hard you hit it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward
How much you can take and keep moving forward
That's how winning is done
Now if you know what you're worth
Then go out and get what you're worth
But you gotta be willing to take the hits
And not point ya finger saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him or her or anybody
Cowards do that and that ain't you
You're better than that

Tell these niggas once, I ain't gonna tell y'all again
Man it's Philly in this bitch and we checkin' chins
Runnin' down on bitch niggas in that two
Catch your ass in traffic, make a square box you in
Rest in peace, Rock got me f*cked up shit
Catch these Philly vibes, man we gotta represent
Remember four four and inches, man when I was on the bench
Now the boss got me in the lab writin' up the script
Bombin' on anybody f*ckin' with the clique
Little bit of this, little bit of that
Philly lost some kings, but we gettin' right back
Real gangsta killers, Youtube, no straps
Early 2000s, yeah I remember that
We ain't goin' nowhere, man, Philly on the map
Free Ace, Capone, why y'all doin' like that
And they probably lied on em for them f*ckin' cold packs
Philly girls walkin' round lookin' like some snacks
But bitch, I ain't thirsty, gimme that, gimme that
Big shit talker and that's big, big facts
Mack 10, say hi errrrrrrrrr dat
