[Lyrics] Dave East – Fortune Favors the Bold Lyrics

I get it
We need that feel again
Ayo, Dave East, this the Kid Capri
Came way too far
We came too far to look back now, baby
Look back for what?
We gotta move the streets out here, they capped on us
(This is) this is light work
We do this all time (Pablo)
Ayo, Dre (yeah, yeah)
Make sure you give them that feeling, man
Yo, East, let’s go (way too far, nigga)
Why would I turn back? (Why?)
My status, I earned that
Exotic, we burned that
I come from the pavement, I’m right where the curb at (curb)
Some niggas live like the earth round
Some act like the world flat (flat)
Give me a Backwood, I bet you I pearl that
I don’t know where your girl at (I don’t know)
See, I give them thorough facts
Them niggas throw up then you know we gonna throw back (ugh)
Now my passport, it look like a world map
That ain’t Gucci, ya shirt cap (cap)
From niggas that served crack
Right to the Grammys like, “How could I turn back?” (How?)
Nigga, this Harlem, the North
The sneakers, the cargos together, the shirt match
See, I really burned tracks
Never take long on the job ’cause I work fast (never)
Remember my first stash
Chillin’ late nights with my cousin on First Ave (First)
We ran out of church fast
Remember me takin’ communion, I wanted to curse bad (damn)
Knowin’ my mama would give me the world if she could, we took what her purse had (mama)
Woke up and earned cash
No butterfly jars but then I had the burnt bags (burnt)
Out in the field where niggas get tackled for real
You soft as a Nerf pad (you soft)
Feelings get hurt fast
The head was amazin’, she might get a Birk’ bag (she might)
I’m really a dirt bag
Got me askin’ myself, “How long will this Perc’ last?” (How long will this Perc’ last?)
Fives, tens and twenties, we countin’ them
Nothin’ but hitters and women surroundin’ him
Jump in that water, it feel like I’m drownin’, I’m over here climbin’
Fuck niggas doin’ fuckery ’cause you allowin’ it
You do a job, I put you on salary
Sit at the table, hope niggas be proud of me (hope)
My plug name Diego, he fuck the potatoes
He said that’s the best way to silence them (shh)
Hov said he want the lean now
Cuzzo told me he just got the gallon in (huh)
Dime Block there in 10th Street
You don’t know the places me and Fallon been (Fallon been)
Used to losin’, we just tryna win
Here I go, I could hear Bully voice right now on my momma’nem
It’ll be a while before I smile again
Gutta crib, I got high with him
Before I ever signed a rap deal, all through the projects they acknowledged him
I’m good with pills, I used to bottle them (bottle them)
Xannys and Percs, now all they offer is panties and skirts
Can’t get with you then your man will get murked (boom)
Pablo the shit that they put on when I need some real
On break, they be jammin’ at work (jam)
He caught that boy in the lobby and caught his first body
He pray that the cameras don’t work (cameras don’t work)
Mommy just gave me her heart and she told me it’s broke
But I’m scared I’ma damage it worst
Pound on the jet with my niggas, they ask where we goin’
Just tell them to land it on First (Eastside)
That’s a mean smash out
We get too it, no kiddin’ in the building
Dave East, makin’ it pop
That’s what’s up
You know what’s up
New York we here, what’s good? (Here I go)
Keep celebratin’, man
I see y’all
