Maintainin’ GRIP

[Chorus]
Me and all my bros straight hangin' (Straight hangin')
Junkie's lurkin' 'cause the dope man stay slangin' (Stay slangin')
Fools twistin' fingers, yeah them niggas gang bangin' (Gang bangin')
Everybody doin' somethin', we just out here maintainin' (Ma-Ma-Maintainin')
My nigga we just tryna' maintain (Tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain, tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain)
Keep it G and never change lanes
We just tryna' maintain (Tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain, tryna maintain, we just tryna maintain)
I hope you niggas on the same thing

[Verse 1]
Now let me take you back to when I had an '83 Impala
Just got paid so I got a couple dollars
Pullin' up inside the cab, 'bout to grab a fit
Seen a nigga that I know, talked a lil' shit
Leavin' out the mall, hit up Ant, that's the brodie
Tryna' put somethin' in the air, know he got the dodi
Aquemini, bumpin' number twelve, "SpottieOttie"
Pulled up to my nigga crib, sippin' on a Forty
Smoked out the garage, tryna come up with a plan
On how to put some monies in our motherfuckin' hands
Already copped the pounds, sold every last gram
Now right back where we started is exactly where we stand
We even hit a lick, but that shit ain't go as planned
Never touch crack, can't get caught servin' yams
'Cause nigga I be damned if I see the chain gang
We just out here, we just out here tryna' maintain
