Hennis C. - Riot! Lyrics

This is why niggas can't have nothin' nice
This is why I gotta buy everything twice
This is why OG niggas stuck in they ways
This is why new niggas might not ever relate
This is why niggas be backin' down from they enemy
This is why I won't smoke weed out the dispensary
This is why the old niggas start to get bitter
This is why I can't really f*ck with the new niggas

I see niggas get scared and start preachin' that hell comin
F*ck what they talkin' bout, it's the season to sell somethin
They kill us, then make us martyrs, soon as you felt somethin
What it cost to make you forget? Twelve hundred
Don't come around me askin' me"where the bitches"
On God, I'm finna start tellin' niggas"look inward"
Bitch you got my attention, you better make this shit count
On God, cause if not, I need my dick in your mouth
Sellin' pussy should not be as common as it's become
And you trickin' niggas enable the shit cause you f*ckin' dumb
It's two niggas I hate, the ones gang bangin' with thumbs
And the podcast niggas who need to wrap their mouth around a gun
New niggas the worst, cross dressin' and cryin
Then tell you they pop pills and sling iron
Since when the f*ck did we start endorsin' the fiend?
When the product has the pen, do you rage against the machine?

This is why niggas can't have nothin' nice
This is why I gotta buy everything twice
This is why OG niggas stuck in they ways
This is why new niggas might not ever relate
This is why niggas be backin' down from they enemy
This is why I won't smoke weed out the dispensary
This is why the old niggas start to get bitter
This is why I can't really f*ck with the new niggas

Participation trophy mentality f*ckin' rap up
I want y'all to stop sayin' all these niggas is goated
Just cause you like it don't make that weak-ass shit excellent
And just cause they said it don't mean it's true or they wrote it
Opinions don't really hold weight if you not a tastemaker
And if that shit's sweet, it don't matter how much your cake bake up
Gotta break eggs to make omelets, reload the face-taker
Aim that shit right at yourself, you gotta change player
White man get money, do wood floorin' and stocks
Niggas get money and spend it on metal and shiny rocks
The racist gon' love that part because it's true
And all the niggas who hate that part is cause it's you
Even if it is true, f*ck systemic oppression
Cause that shit is just a trauma that poverty manifested
When you break the cycle, you plan on never returning?
When the product has the pen and start sellin, will you go purchase?

This is why niggas can't have nothin' nice
This is why I gotta buy everything twice
This is why OG niggas stuck in they ways
This is why new niggas might not ever relate
This is why niggas be backin' down from they enemy
This is why I won't smoke weed out the dispensary
This is why the old niggas start to get bitter
This is why I can't really f*ck with the new niggas

Y'all feel like that
Huh?!
What we talkin' bout?
What we talkin' bout?!
When it's time to be frontline, you gon' be online?
When it's time to be frontline, you gon' be online?

This is why niggas can't have nothin' nice
This is why I gotta buy everything twice
This is why OG niggas stuck in they ways
This is why new niggas might not ever relate
This is why niggas be backin' down from they enemy
This is why I won't smoke weed out the dispensary
This is why the old niggas start to get bitter
This is why I can't really f*ck with the new niggas
