Hollywood - August Alsina
I started out at the bottom
yes I came up from nothing
Had a lot of people who told me that
I wouldn't amount to nothing
Soon as I got something started
niggas act like I owe them something
But nigga I don't owe you shit
you say I do fuck you and who you with
I fought for everything I got
and a nigga don't brag 'bout
what he have
But I work hard to have a lot
cause I can't go back
to when times got bad
Them hard nights and my hard life
is what keep me motivated
But I feel so misunderstood
cause anytime shit go good
They say I'm Hollywood
Cause a young nigga living good
I done worked my way to the top
Cause you know the grind it don't stop
Just let me get my shine
If you sill hating then I'm sorry
That you think I'm Hollywood
Cause a young nigga living good
You think I'm Hollywood
When you see I'm doing good
When you see I'm doing good
Nigga you see I'm doing good
Cause I do just what I gotta do to
get the food up on the table
Make sure my family eating good
took my momma out the hood
thank God I'm able
It's such a blessing
ain't too much stressing
Its cold outchea in these streets
why a fuck nigga wanna hate on me
I fought for everything I got
and a nigga don't brag 'bout
what he have
But I work hard to have a lot
cause I can't go back
to when times got bad
Them hard nights and my hard life
is what keep me motivated
But I feel so misunderstood
cause anytime shit go good
They say I'm Hollywood
Cause a young nigga living good
I done worked my way to the top
Cause you know the grind it don't stop
Just let me get my shine
If you sill hating then I'm sorry
That you think I'm Hollywood
Cause a young nigga living good
You think I'm Hollywood
When you see I'm doing good
When you see I'm doing good
Nigga you see I'm doing good
Now they telling me congratulations
But deep down they hating
And it starts to come from familiar faces
they pray on my fall
I'm giving my all
taking trips to different places
Usually when people feel they make it
It seems so easy to go and get complacent
But I'm up right now
tryna make a million bucks right now
I stayed down 'til I came up
never changed up but
They say I'm Hollywood
Cause a young nigga living good
I done worked my way to the top
Cause you know the grind it don't stop
Just let me get my shine
If you sill hating then I'm sorry
That you think I'm Hollywood
Cause a young nigga living good
You think I'm Hollywood
When you see I'm doing good
When you see I'm doing good
Nigga you see I'm doing good
