Tru & Livin' - Still Do It Lyrics

Ladies and gentlemen
We want to thank you for coming out to the show tonight
It's good to see you...
Ya know, it's been a long time since we've had a chance to play our music for you
Sometimes it hard to believe that after all this time...
We still doin' it...
Yo!
Still do it...
Real music from M.C.'s that's been through it...
Still the truest on mics, we spit gems through it... (Yo!)
The Tru & Livin'...
Aye yo, Qb!
Kick it like we did it back in the day!
My style is murder in the first
You murder in a verse
First 48 style, incriminate yourself
You should learn to do this first
Study where it came from
Appreciate niggaz before you
That put this game down
Don't use the same sound as somebody else
It ain't no future in that
That's that short-term shit
The Tru and Livin' music movement is still in effect
'Cuz we ain't sign them wack contracts
They still on the shelf
We still do it
Even though we from a place where
If you got your hands up
They'll still shoot you, and make bail
A place where they used to sell you at the state fair
Now they just throw you in the state jail
It ain't fair, my people going through hell
But to be perfectly honest
A lot of things we bring on ourselves
So when you hear (Hear) me on the track
Just know it's bigger than this hip hop
It's deeper than rap
I still do it
I don't rhyme all the time but I still do it
Real music from M.C.'s that's been through it
My influence is life, I gave my rib to it
Still the truest on mics, we spit gems through it
Yo! I came through with the same crew
The Tru and Livin'
Every ending's just a new beginning
So light the earth up and pass it away
Aye yo, young B!
Show 'em how we did it back in the day, fam!
I still get 20 a gram
Still Ham, still get busy
My old shit, still jam
Still not who you want me to be
But still cool with you doin' you
If you let me do me
I'm still on some ill conspiracy theory
Be still, know that I am God, y'all
Steel sharpens steel, still raw
Still what I kill for
Every line, rappers be lyin'
They crossing the line
They vibe like they not even tryin'
You can hear it in the way that they rhyme
They vibe is off, they style is weak
They rhymes is soft, they beats is wack
C'mon! Y'all know who been keepin' it phat
We never strayed
Just paid dues and stayed ourselves
Yea, you mighta got rich but y'all played y'all selves
Now you broke as a joke, ya shit stay on the shelf, sucka!
Now whaddup! Who's really in charge?
The indivisible Tru and Livin' squad is that large
Still doin' it
I don't rhyme all the time but I still do it
Real music from M.C.'s that's been through it
My influence is life, I gave my rib to it
Still the truest on mics, we spit gems through it
Yo! I came through with the same crew
The Tru and Livin'
Every ending's just a new beginning
So light the earth up and pass it away
Aye yo, Big G!
Get busy like its back in the day, kid!
And we gon' be here
As long as hearing's left in our ears
As long as there is feelings
Still in our tears, long as we still got love
For this music that's instilled in our blood
And the voice to sing it
The Tru & Livin' still gon' bring it, cuz!
Best man for the job, I got the right tools
I'm known as Big Grizz, student of the middle school
I wrote my first rhyme like thirty years ago
In the back of my cousin's house
Rest in peace Ronnie O., yo
Life went on, highs and lows,
Ups and downs, through it all
Hip hop was something I centered my life around
Polly'd with the industry
And partied with celebrities
And open up shows for legends and luminaries
Although its been said I'm nice with the blah blah
My focused switched from making beats
To raising Reece and Rah Rah
The road is long
When your tryin' to get people to hear your songs
After ten years of running in place, we moved on!
We had wrongs to make right, some had seeds to feed
We all had demons to fight, this wasn't fulfilling needs
Hip hop
I still adore it but I made too many sacrifices for it
And it wasn't paying the mortgage
Now I got a sturdy roof over my head
A comfy bed that I can climb in
Even though I didn't make my money off of rhymin'
We return as underground rap legends
And still get free studio time in every lab we step in
The Tru and Livin'
Maybe never heard of them or heard of me
Nevertheless
We celebrating our 20th anniversary
With a new sound, it's long overdue
2015, Enviro, Triple 7
Respect due
Yo!
I don't rhyme all the time but I still do it
Real music from M.C.'s that's been through it
My influence is life, I gave my rib to it
Still the truest on mics, we spit gems through it
Yo! I came through with the same crew
The Tru and Livin'
Every ending's just a new beginning
So light the earth up and pass it away
'Cuz we still do it like we did it back in the day
