CHARLOTTE CHURCH lyrics : "Bali Ha'i"

(feat. Trife Da God)

[Chorus: Trife Da God (sample)]

We love hip hop, and live a life of crime
Felt like I've been robbed, gotta take what's rightfully mine
So I'm staying on my job, yo, as far as the grinds

Gotta put in that work every day and just (put it on the line)
Strong mind still shine, young man in my prime
Had to switch it up on 'em, had to change with the times

Now the flows upgraded, got the labels in line
And sold five, get ya money up (*##$ (put it on the line)


[Trife Da God]
You about to read the greatest book ever published
The life and times of Trife Diesel, I give my heart to the public

Peep how a young boy was discovered, follow me, y'all
And bare witness as a ^!$$% touch on these subjects
The year was 1980, the summer was hot and hazy

Reagan was president, and Nancy was the first lady
Born to a Mr. and Mrs. Bailey, a healthy lad
Wasn't poor, but, I didn't come from a wealthy pad

Moms and dad still married, they both try'nna provide
Two brothers and two sisters, I'm the youngest out of five
Stapleton's where I reside, the north side of the Island

Where try'nna survive was a challenge, my hood was flooded with violence
And crack was the new epidemic, and by the early 90's
The recall law was passed down by the Senate

The Yankees just won a pennant, and Jordan was in his prime
Now I'm living this life where I'm forced to (put it on the line)


[Chorus]

[Trife Da God]

I'm on a journey, leaving no stone unturned
For your concern brother, I work for all I earn
Whether a crib in the p's, or a five mill mansion

Showing my $$# like a stripper on some high heels dancing
Nowadays I'm showing expansion, controlling my team
And $#&@ a but-but, I'm try'nna get ahold of that phantom

My pops taught me how to hustle and attend to your ventures
Cuz a man is not a man if he ain't got no incentitive
Dealing with money, then everything has a percentage

Whether street or corporate office, try to keep a good image
Note these jewels I had to swallow, them words I still follow
Describe all, now me and this music, we such a good combo

Every 'morning' like Alonzo, I was serving indiction
Getting that money, fam, no matter the weather conditions
So I learned that it's better to listen, play your position

If you can't take the heat, then stay the hell out the kitchen

[Chorus]
