Lyrics Nipsey Hussle

Nipsey Hussle

Status Symbol

Me I'm getting, back rubs from these leather seats

Negotiating equity positions you'll never be

Rap sheet full of felonies

Status symbol on my set of keys

They say I was selling dreams

Back to the brick wall I'm inhaling trees

Visualizing hella cheese you can smell the weed

Niggas doubt pessimism ain't affecting me

Fuel to the fire took it higher than they ever see

Frequent flight seat like seven seas

Shopping spree spent about 11Gs

Eyes bloodshot I don't ever sleep

My niggas act on instinct we don't ever think

When confronted with a problem we don't ever flee

We connected at the bottom like the letter V

So accustomed to the pop we don't even blink

When them shots go off get the Glock show off

Yellow tape a nigga he grew up to hate a nigga

Nothing major nigga just a demonstration nigga

Within the matrix nigga I drew illustrations with him

Words that is, for sure that is

Look, that nigga got his off the curb, that is

So how the fuck that nigga so concerned with his

I be baffled by the fact when niggas burn their bridge

Then try to double back like, what the fuck is that?

Like, Niggas want this rap life way too bad

[*]

We ain't gotta worry no more

We'll be just fine

And we ain't finna wait no more

So don't waste my time

Remember when we had no way, no way

But we'll be ok for now

We'll be ok for now

And here on out

Now you up huh? make it hard to trust huh?

Got you fucked up saying it was luck huh?

Pulling up huh? limo tinted trucks huh?

Open trust huh? Then you fill em up huh?

Every time a nigga drop it's real as fuck huh?

Every time you hit the road you fill em up huh?

Whole city know that you became the one huh?

They seen it from the jump huh?

The pressure weigh a ton huh?

Especially where you come from

Every night br-br-br-brap bump bump

Heavy price but it's just the cloth you cut from

It's alright it's just life if you want one

Learn to hold yourself down with a big gun

All these niggas playing tough you gon' chip one

For these dollars a decade you a risk one

Fuck it though cause when you flat broke you ain't nothing bro

Seen a gang of rich niggas get comfortable

Then looking at their watch like where the fuck it go

Through my eyes I learnt lessons like

Time is of the essence and my grind got obsessive

Then my mind got restless put myself in the game

But batteries sold separate

Question, since when do real niggas come second?

So I kicked the door down getting more now

Nigga need at least like 30 for the show now

Woah now, realest out of Sou. Cal

Baby wanna fuck I'm like mmm slow down

I'm eating cheese eggs in my hotel

Hustle sold out nigga retailing wholesale

Me ball and hurt your feelings? Oh well

All money in I pull coattails, nigga
