How I Feel - Nappy Roots

I’m feeling good

I’m living pimpin

We still alive

Shout out my folks in Clemson

South Carolina Trippin

Folks dying in church

I stop going to church

Like fuck is it worth

I stop messing wit drugs

Seen how it was doing us

We trying to raise families

This shit gone ruining us

You rolling wit Jesus

I’m rolling wit Neil

You popping a pill

I smoke weed for my ills

I’m tire of the lies

You the man disguised

You keep looking for God

I just look to survive

I be smoking a black

She be smoking her crack

We both stuck in the trap

We’ll both kill for a stack

How you feel I’m lit

Where I live it’s lit

We talk shit on the porch

While we killing a fifth

20 years he gone

Paperwork he back home

I write lyrics for y’all

Hope you loving the songs

If you wonder who I am then truth is what I’ll give

Let me take you to my world and show you how I live

The sun don’t always shine on us and that’s just how it is

But I’m here to stay another day and that’s just how I feel

I’ll take an 8 to explain

Where I’m coming from my aim

Like a pointed gun, I ain’t

The one to up and run

I put that on my daughter

And a couple sons

Until I’m gone, forever hustle-un

I do it just because it’s fun

If not then fuck it

I’m at a juncture in my life

If you can’t take the truth then tough shit

I made it out the bucket but some will say I’m lucky

Louisvillian til my death

You can find me at Atlantucky…

Lobby call lebm check out at da Travelodge

Really can’t complain hell I done beat a lotta odds

The result the same incompetent or Sabotage

Do ya thang tho, It’s all good like Rally’s fries

Chess not Checkers

I bless hot records

My horoscope told me say less not extra

I’m good in the blackest spots, put that on deez freckles

Age no longer thirty-eight but ya boy’s still special…

How you doin?

If you wonder who I am then truth is what I’ll give

Let me take you to my world and show how I live

The sun don’t always shine on us and that’s just how it is

But I’m here to stay another day and that’s just how I feel

They asking me how I’m doing

I can’t complain a bit

I feel so alive and no my life ain’t a bitch

I took out the rearview

I’m better than yesterday

I’m moving downfield

I’m making better plays

Made me some money but then I blew all that

Looked in the mirror like why don’t you fall back

I Got in control and then I fucked up again

Ain’t nobody perfect, every second I sin

These here mistakes don’t define a man

I embrace a loss and make the mind expand

A wise woman told me not to jump off the bridge

And that the wagon ain’t no better never ride the band

As a kid it was tough to make my own decisions

Probably why I’m practicing my own religion

But it’s all to the good, I don’t judge nobody

I’m just tryna show some love dap and hug somebody

If you wonder who I am then truth is what I’ll give

Let me take you to my world and show how I live

The sun don’t always shine on us and that’s just how it is

But I’m here to stay another day and that’s just how I feel
