Dreal - IOU Lyrics

I ran I run I'll run my race
Walkin' limpin' crawl my way
Faith can fill my suitcase
I'm done wit the goose chase
I don't owe you nothin'
I don't owe you nothin'
I don't owe you nothin' (nah)
I don't owe you nothin'
Place my God above you
So don't stick me wit a label
Slam it down on the table
See I paid wit the struggle
So
I don't owe you nothin'
I don't owe you nothin'
I don't owe you nothin' (nah)
I don't owe you nothin'

Raised up in the yankee league streets like my brother pete rock
Everyday a the week listenin the master hip hop
From biggie to Tupac
Keep ya head held me high
Juicy kept me easy
When I was stressed n worried
Had to grow up quickly
Tried out being a kid
Guess it wasn't for me
Member livin' the SI
Home of the Wu n I
Knew my father Marcy
OG da Bedstuy
The Do or you die
Mother from the pinks eye
East side let's ride
Defend myself I was taught
Up in the schools that we fought
Always wanna envy
But why u be worried
Bout the clothes that we buy
Or the shoes that we rock
Or the cars that we drive
Or the way that we walk
You don't know where I came
Or the pain that's inside
But you'll be by my side
When I'm in my glory
I was low though
Couldn't be there for me
Laughin' at me
Now ya lyin' to me

To my face son
For real, you expect me to believe that you there, you got my back now
But when I was down and out you was nowhere to be found
I work hard! Blood, sweat, and tears for this!
I put everything into this!
And now only the people that's wit me gone ride, but you I don't owe you nothin'!

I ran I run I'll run my race
Walkin' limpin' crawl my way
Faith can fill my suitcase
I'm done wit the goose chase
I don't owe you nothin'
I don't owe you nothin'
I don't owe you nothin' (nah)
I don't owe you nothin'
Place my God above you
So don't stick me wit a label
Slam it down on the table
See I paid wit the struggle
So
I don't owe you nothin'
I don't owe you nothin'
I don't owe you nothin' (nah)
I don't owe you nothin'

808's hit heavy
Like the way my heart beat
Really Need some relief
But you wanna beat me
No I'm not backing down
Don't care who be around
Ya'll gone have to jump me
Right here in these streets
Cause I got the fight a
Million man army
Who that dare to touch me
Being the child of a king
Not to mention judge me
Cause the way that I be
Till u get to know me
All that did was make me
Go
Harder... better
Faster Stronger
Play a little longer
Dizzy Gillespie
Or the Great louie
Like (scat)
Bee bop da hip hop
I wanna stand on top
And right bout now
I only got one shot
So I won't bow
Rabbit the 8 mile
Till I crack a smile
Got the gold cause I beat my trials
Pose like Bolt camera
Check my uh uh uh out

I'll lap the turtle...
Before I take a nap n let 'em finish
I know you slept on me...
But a new chapter's just beginnin'
Swear I feel it in my soul I know I'm winning
And when I get in...
And when I get in, remember I don't owe you nothing

I ran I run I'll run my race
Faith can fill my suitcase
I'm done wit the goose chase
And listen, I don't owe you nothin'
Place my God above you
So don't stick me wit a label
Guess what, nah I don't owe you nothin'
Nah I don't owe you nothin'
I ran I run I'll run my race
Get the hell up out my face
I'm done wit the goose chase
Listen, I don't owe you nothin'
Slam it down on the table
Said I paid wit the struggle
Guess What, nah
I don't owe you nothin'
I don't owe you nothin'
I don't owe you nothin' (nah)
I don't owe you nothin'
