Perfect Ten - Mustard, Nipsey Hussle

Yeah

You don’t know who swimmin' naked 'til the tide come in

Mustard on the beat, ho

Fuck where your hoes at or where your Rolls at

Where your backbone, nigga, where your code at?

Where your down since day one real bros at?

Where them stories that you tellin' unfold at?

Where your heart, nigga?

Where your soul at?

We got old school ways, we expose that

Ain’t no guarantees, but you know that

Niggas die every day, can’t control that

Ken Griffey throwback, nigga had to go left

Must’ve popped twenty-eight times, 'cause it’s four left

If it’s 'bout mine, ain’t a nigga that I won’t check

Run through your hardest homeboy, you could go next

'85 Cut', dawg, Hussle had the Rolex

Chain on my white tee, now you see the progress

Stacked every chip on myself, time to collect

All money in, just imagine what I gross back

Fuck where your hoes at or where your Rolls at

Where your backbone, nigga, where your code at?

Where your down since day one real bros at?

Where them stories that you tellin' unfold at?

Where your heart, nigga?

Where your soul at?

We got old school ways, we expose that

Ain’t no guarantees, but you know that

Niggas die every day, can’t control that

That’s why I called my thing The Marathon (Yeah)

'Cause I, I’m not gon' lie and portray, um, this ultimate poise

Like I been had it figured out

Nah, I just didn’t quit

That’s the only distinguishing quality

From me and probably whoever else is goin' through this

Went through this, or is gonna go through this

Is that I ain’t quit

I went through every emotion

I went through every emotion with tryna pursue what I’m doing

You know what I mean?

(Mhm)

And I think that what, what’s gon' separate whoever’s gon' try to go for

something is that, you ain’t gon' quit

That’s, you know, you really gon' take the stance of I’m gon' die behind what

I’m gettin' at right here

Fuck where your hoes at or where your Rolls at

Where your backbone, nigga, where your code at?

Where your down since day one real bros at?

Where them stories that you tellin' unfold at?

Where your heart, nigga?

Where your soul at?

We got old school ways, we expose that

Ain’t no guarantees, but you know that

Niggas die every day, can’t control that

I think that our reaction to being disrespected

We gotta, we gotta, we have to reassess how we react

You know what I mean?

I think that, we’ve been known as, as hip hop, to make songs

And that’s a part of it

And then, we gotta, we gotta go a step further because I think that

It’s like a disease in a body

Once you start givin' it a treatment it’ll get immune to the treatment (Mhm)

And you gotta try something else to kill that disease

So, I think protest music is important

I think that YG was a genius

Fuck where your hoes at or where your Rolls at

Where your backbone, nigga, where your code at?

Where your down since day one real bros at?

Where them stories that you tellin' unfold at?

Where your heart, nigga?

Where your soul at?

We got old school ways, we expose that

Ain’t no guarantees, but you know that

Niggas die every day, can’t control that
