David Stones - All Or Nuthin' [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: David Stones]

We got so much shit that we could cry about
But we just ride it out
I remember many days in the house hiding out
Cause I ain't have shit to wear
Some say you shouldn't care but they never felt the stares
It's clear they never felt despair
Or the wear and tear of being broke so many years
I remember being young thinking life ain't fair
When your peers stay fly how the fuck you compare
I don't wanna hit the trap cause I know that's it's lethal
And, I ain't tryna' poison my people
But it's not too many options they leave you
Dear God talk to me big homie I need you
I'm down for whatever and my homies as well but my only fear is going to hell
Some say we already there cause from heaven we fell
Well shit, I don't know I'm just tryna excel

[Hook: David Stones]

Last night I had a vision
I woke up looking at the world different
Gotta free my mind from this prison
It's all or nuthin' I ain't asking for permission
I had to make a decision to follow through on my intuition
Cause last night I had a vision
I woke up looking at the world different

[Verse 2: David Stones]

Ayo I'm riding through the 'Ville bumping some Meek Mill, Kendrick and Big K.R.I.T
Some real shit I could feel
With a bad chick on her knowledge of self shit
Who just put me on to K'La the Lyricist
I heard somebody say: "Yo, who is he tho?"
Real talk
Then somebody else replied: "That's the future of New York!"
Yea that's right I got these haters all distraught
Because I paid the cost to be the boss what the fuck these niggas thought
I debuted in '06
You must be on that thing you sniff if you think I just got poppin' overnight
Shit
Man this game is full of fake-ness
Sometimes I feel I'm so real I won't make it
A artist used to be somebody blessed with a gift
Now it's all about the best marketing and most tricks
First they try to diss
Then they see you build a buzz and they all up on your dick man, they make me sick

[Hook: David Stones]

[Verse 3: David Stones]

If you real then I see you dog
The other 95 percent I can't fuck with y'all
Naw, I could never put my trust in yaw
Cause I know them evils done corrupted y'all
I never chased the fame I was outrunning the pain
Dodging the ordinary steady looking for a change
People told me: "Ayo David you insane, it's a million fucking rappers how you gon' get in the game?"
I stayed focused just mastering my lane
Back when me and Styxx kept each other on our A game
If you hating then you should be ashamed cause a haters just a lame looking for someone to blame
Ayo I came from the bottom I ain't have shit
Not even a fucking mattress
Sleeping on the couch at my aunt house
If section 8 found out every-fucking-body getting kicked out
Word up and that's real shit
Something that I really had to deal with
My pride made me hide and conceal it
Stressed out
Got me ready to kill shit
Thoughts on my mind
Notepad full of rhymes
But not a motherfucking dime for some studio time
The life of a nigga unsigned
The devil made some offers but I always declined
Ayo I'm just freeing my mind
Taking my time got me feeling like I'm falling behind
I know the only way to be great is stay on your grind
But damn how long is this line?
Please show me a sign
This recession got a motherfucking stressing
I know it's all part of life lessons
Like everybody else I had some questions
But my faith is so strong it kept me from second guessing
These niggas tryna' block my blessings but every second that I don't shine I spend perfecting
I know what I want and I ain't settling ot budging
Cause this time around it's all or nuthin'
