Lyrics Statik Selektah

Statik Selektah

Wall Flowers

We made so many moves

I believe we drank them all

I was stressed, moms kicked me out my rest

My bitch left me and I was depressed

But tell me how I was most consistent when my life was a mess

I guess that's when I perform best, yes

I had my back against the wall

Sing it, uh, huh, uh, huh, uh, huh, uh, huh

Had my back against the wall

One, two, check it out, yo

There were times life felt so easy, I make it harder on myself

Sabotaged the pursuit of rap wealth, cause cash is dumb whack

I dug myself a hole, just to make a come back

Was writing daily 'til that honey dripper's drum cracked

To the point that when I came out, they thought I was someone else

Ain't planned it like that, but it helps

Remember recoding every week, just to get my tops up

And fools acting like I just popped out (what)

Before I ever made a project, I would go to projects out there getting busy

The fuck was suckas talking 'bout "who is he"

Son they been tryna tell you but you didn't listen, walking contradictions

I made it pop without y'all, I was on a mission

Now herbs come around acting like they made us

They in a state of envy like Vegas, Nevada

Fronting like they true with me, with no soul in the Prada

I been through real shit , man this shit is nada

I was stressed, moms kicked me out my rest

My bitch left me and I was depressed

But tell me how I was most consistent when my life was a mess

I guess that's when I perform best, yes

I had my back against the wall

Sing it, uh, huh, uh, huh, uh, huh, uh, huh

(Nigga, passed out the hall)

(I got my back, I got my back)

Yo, on this road to getting money, I'm just sliding through

Got two whips, two kids, two baby mommas too

Every day a different city I be flying through

This stress gives you gray hairs, I just found a few

Found me a little bad bitch and she 'bout it too

Grinding hard, making sure this bank account is full

Had my back against the wall, fought my way through

Watched a couple cats profit off my wave too

Still running with the same crew, cause I stay true

Term and Statik established 1982

This must be heaven, being a dad plus a legend

I got a seven figure dream, that's a lucky seven

I hit the dutch, exhale, then sip this cup

Tryna take away the pain so I'm liquored up

Listen up, every day you wake is a blessing

That's another twenty-four to grind for this cheddar

Back against the wall

Uh, huh, uh, huh, uh, huh, uh, huh

(Passed out the hall)

My life was a mess, I guess that's when I perform best

(Back against the wall, yeah

Had the back against the wall, oh

Yeah, I got my back, I got my back against the wall)
