Get it up, get it out. Work for what I wanna get
Hustle through the struggle, remember don't nobody owe me shit
Stay thankful to The Man and stay loyal to my fam
Pray for all my enemies, forgive em, they don't understand
So I just work
I got fam and I'm the one that they depending on
Just another nicca tryna put my city on
All I want is for my ma to have no worries
So until that day arrives or I'm buried, got dammit I'ma work
Every day, every night. Had to watch my mama fight
To hold back those tears from the fears that her kids wouldn't get all the things we wanted in life
We ain't always have the best of things, but made the best of things
Said thanks, didn't dare complain
Knowing mama put it all on the line
When she gave me anything I would treat it like everything
Then it came a time where I made my mind, had to go major grind
My little brother and my sister growing up, cost of living going up
And my mama just making it by
I had to get right cuz I dislike when them bills high and them chips tight
I can't sit right when I feel like
It's time for her to kick back and just live life
I got ya mama. All that time u hustled, yeah I watched ya mama
Fourteen, I was punching clocks so I'd stay out ya pockets mama
Know it tore ya heart for me to ask when u ain't got it
So I get it just to make sure if you ask, I provide it
Get it up, get it out. Work for what I wanna get
Hustle through the struggle, remember don't nobody owe me shit
Stay thankful to The Man and stay loyal to my fam
Pray for all my enemies, forgive em, they don't understand
So I just work
I got fam and I'm the one that they depending on
Just another nicca tryna put my city on
All I want is for my ma to have no worries
So until that day arrives or I'm buried, got dammit I'ma work
Shoutout to my city, whoever supporting Nikki
I never u take u for granted, I love u like u my family
Putting on 4 u all while representing for Canty
I want them youngins to know the world's bigger than where u standing
Remember writing my rhymes on the floor in my room
Now I'm reciting them lines while I watch an audience move
They loving a nicca music, they feeling a nicca show
They hug and throw up the duce, say you killin it with the flow
Ain't really telling me nothing that I ain't already know
Still I put it all on the line like I ain't already broke
I'm humbled by admiration, for that I sincerely thank you
The love is killing the hate and support is my motivation, I'm Nix
Get it up, get it out. Work for what I wanna get
Hustle through the struggle, remember don't nobody owe me shit
Stay thankful to The Man and stay loyal to my fam
Pray for all my enemies, forgive em, they don't understand
So I just work
I got fam and I'm the one that they depending on
Just another nicca tryna put my city on
All I want is for my ma to have no worries
So until that day arrives or I'm buried, got dammit I'ma work
