What up
What it do (Music Corner)
I'd like to welcome everybody out tonight
Welcome all the new Marathon members
To the experience of a lifetime
I need y'all hands up though
Yeah, look
[Nipsey Hussle]
No I don't want your love
It’s not why I make music
I owe myself, I told myself back then that I would do this
And I always look so out of reach
And just seem so confusing
That I felt my place in life
A young black man it seems so useless
But I don’t want no help
Just let me suffer through this
The world would not know Jesus Christ if there was never Judas
This knife that's in my back
Will be the truth that introduced us
And the distance in between us
Is the proof of my conclusion
So life is what you make it
I hope you make a movement
Hope your opportunity survives the opportunists
Hoping as you walk across the sands you see my shoeprint
And you follow, til it change your life, cuz it's all evolution
And I hope you find your passion, cause I found mine in this music
But I hope it’s not material cause that’s all an illusion
And they all in collusion
This racist institution's double standard
Acting like they not the reason why we ruthless
[June Summers - Hook]
Tonight is my night
This is my moment
Feeling bigger than life
But I gotta own it
It's a victory
Let's make history
[Nipsey Hussle - Verse 2]
Look at where I started and look at where I’m standing
Y’all can say its luck
But I know that it's planning
Shout out to the pain
That gave me understanding
Shout out to my gang
It turned me to a savage
So niggas say what they want to
But I go through what you haven’t
And it’s not ego driven, it’s not me boasting and bragging
This road I chose to go down
Hard to slow down when in traffic
In order for me to grow I had to let go of some habits
And it's easy to say I’m on now cause you see it, and it happened
But before it ever did had to believe and get it cracking
So I’m gon take you back then, 32 shots in my mack 10
With a dream minus the means my early teens was fucking tragic
And deep inside my mind is buried crimes you can’t imagine
That I wrestle with at night demons that I fight I can’t get past it
So no matter how straight your cash get
It don’t matter if you plastic
We was looking for the lights and all we stumbled across was flashes
But tonight…
[Hook]
[June Summers - Bridge]
Bigger than average life
I’m brighter than Vegas lights
Feeling like I can’t lose
Any other day I do
Feels like I'm ?
It feels like I’m 8 feet tall
Tonight is my night
For sure, for sure
[Nipsey Hussle]
So if it’s meant, then it’s gon be
People love it, cause they know that this the real me
The cops hate it, so they hope my homies kill me
But I ain't want the fame, I just wanted y’all to feel me
It’s my time, so I’m going in
We ball till we fall, fuck how the story ends
I see these niggas hatin’
I know you hoes plotting
I ain't worried bout it
Cause I know God got me
Got me, got me
Say I know God got me
Got me, got me
Yeah I know God got me
Got me, got me
Yeah I know God got me
See I ain't worried bout it
Cause I know God got me
Once in a lifetime shit you know
This song dedicated to everybody out there with a muthafucking dream
Fuck what they say, do your shit
[Hook]
Tonight is my night
This is my moment
Feeling bigger than life
But I gotta own it
Its a victory
Lets make history
[Nipsey Hussle]
The marathon nigga
This shit ain't gone stop until I say its gone' stop
It ain't gone' stop until you say its gone' stop
And it ain't gone be unless you make it
