Motives

Motive to be singing I got em
Motive to be singing I got em
Even when I was kid I tried
I was poor but talented
Couldn't pay a session
No bairro

I come from an African place
A block where talent nao chega
You need a carrer instead
Cause music can't keep you fed
I am from a provincial trash
People like me don't dare

Some rappers are wack
But they got theirs families they buy the stage

See me I swear
I've been here
Always wanted
To be a legend
To be a rapper
To be estrela
Had no money
To pay a session
Where I come from
School is better
For survivor
I couldn't dare
Papa told me Do your best
Cause music industry is'nt fair

Now I made some chedda
I can do what ever I fell like
Since I came to america
I got future in changes, this is life
Yeah I still remember
In school singin Jay Z, in Portuguese
See me now, I'm studio I got a platform to be heard

Motive to be singing I got em
Motive to be singing I got em
Even when I was kid I tried
I was poor but talented
Couldn't pay a session
No bairro

Yeah I was so low
I wanted to be know
Now I see that thing is starting happening this is dope
They done tryna block
My hit just gon blow
Yeah I'm coming for your zbiga if you tryna hate me nigag

Momma told
Go on boy
Have good life
Go work hard
Things from sky they never fall
You good in this you free to ball
Drop some new shits
Give back home
I dream to see you in Bently or Ford
You know money don't grow up on trees
Cause if it did you'd be a boss

Nigga foreign No Xenophobe
I'm here to pop up like Afro star
Just gimme some spot if you wanna prove
My style is so ready to burn the floor
Gimme audiance I'll blow the spot
This place is holy I got my tenis off
I got more bars than a jail or door
Tenho fome--drip is tight - let it on

Motive to be singing I got em
Motive to be singing I got em
Even when I was kid I tried
I was poor but talented
Couldn't pay a session
No bairro
