I was so misunderstood
And all I wanted was success
I had hittas tryna end me
I was dealing with some stress
All these hatin' hittas envy me
I know they feelin' pressed
This the life of a gorilla
You don't never get to rest
Pressure on my enemies
I gotta get it done
Even at the bottom
I was always number one
Lookin' for a remedy
To deal with all this stress
This the life of a gorilla
You don't never get to rest
And that ain't gon' change
I'd run up on a hitta if he think it's a game
I'd pull up with a toolie
And start bussin' your brain
Sippin' drank like it's a smoothie
Got me losin' my sane
Why you think that this a movie
You ain't gonna get saved
I've been thuggin' out the trenches
Steady tryna get paid
Shoulder shruggin' at my wisdom
They ain't care what I said
Then they shootin' at your skully
Get that right in your head, yeah
I learned how to pick a lock
Before I learned to pik my hair
My dawg was lookin' for his pops
He turned around, no one was there
I almost got locked up in them cages
Because of how I look
Now these people say congratulations
Don't know what it took
They tried to tell me that I
Wouldn't make it, focus on them books
But I did it anyway
And passed up an opp
I been goin' up
They want a youngin' to drop
I'mma question later
But for now you get popped
Honestly homie
You couldn't rock with us
That shawty that you want so bad
Is just a thot to us
These people really made of glass
And say they hard to bust
I can see right through 'em
Without binoculars
Man, I swear they really trippin'
Like a Charter Bus
If you get in it with me
You in with all of us
I came up in this world
Without a lot of touch
Had me screamin' adiós
To all my obstacles
I was so misunderstood
And all I wanted was success
I had hittas tryna end me
I was dealing with some stress
All these hatin' hittas envy me
I know they feelin' pressed
This the life of a gorilla
You don't never get to rest
Pressure on my enemies
I gotta get it done
Even at the bottom
I was always number one
Lookin' for a remedy
To deal with all this stress
This the life of a gorilla
You don't never get to rest
