The Good Fight

[Intro]

When you wake up this morning

I want you to go to the mirror

And I want you to look at yourself in the eyes and say fuck you!

Fuck your hopes, fuck your dreams

Fuck all the good you thought this life was 'gon bring you

Now let's go out here and make this bitch happy

New Tigallo, New Tigallo, New Tigallo, New Tigallo

[Verse 1]

Up early with the sun and the stars

6 A.M. ring the alarm

Weather man say it's 90 today but it's gon' feel like 100 tomorrow

So throw some fresh water under the arms

Bullshit soon as I come in the job

Boss hit me with the news like a box-cutter under the jaw

Said they just had a meeting and about 3 hundred

Of y'all gettin fired cuz we been defunded

Can't say I didn't even see it coming

I always knew that one day, they'd find a way to throw me to the wolves

And once they, came into my room on that Friday afternoon I was thinkin

"Why you faggot ass niggas couldn't fire me on Monday"

I know it's not sane, but yo I'm just sayin

Everybody prays for the day they see the light

But the light at the end of the tunnel is a train

5 dollar gas, and poverty rates

Are rising much higher than your hourly rates

So if you thinkin 'bout quittin you should probably wait

Cuz everybody gotta do a fuckin job that they hate

"Go and live out your dreams" that's what they tellin

Fam in my ear all day and they yellin

"Keep it real Te", and don't ever sellout

But how the fuck you sell out when ain't nobody sellin?

[Hook]

Tired of playin with y'all

I wanna fight the good fight but it ain't payin me dawg

N.C., Make ya money

VA, Make ya money

To my man still hustlin hard, tryna get it at whatever the cost

Wherever you at or whoever you are

That's me Make ya money

All day Make ya money

[Verse 2]

It's like chasin a high, you just wanna get a hit

Just wanna get a taste, just wanna benefit

Everyday we wake up there's the legitimate

Struggle between doin what's right or just doin some nigga shit

Baby bro wrote me say he feel like he lost me

I'm like "dude, I'm tryin, back the fuck up off me"

My single friends say "Te, ya family's beautiful"

I'm like if only y'all niggas knew what it cost me

This shit don't come with no blueprints

And with every change it seems more like a game you could never win

I tell my peoples I ain't rich

But this harvest is the farthest from broke a nigga ever been

"Go for ya dreams" that's what they tellin

Fam in my ear all day and they yellin

"Keep it real Te", and don't ever sellout

But what the fuck is sellin out if ain't nobody sellin?

[Hook]

Tired of playin with y'all

I'm tryna fight the good fight but they ain't payin' me dawg

N.C., Make ya money

VA, Make ya money

To my man still hustlin hard, where ya at or whoever you are

Coinstar pennies out of the jar

All day nigga Make ya Money

Y'all remember that shit nigga Make ya money
