The Encore - August Alsina

[00:00.00]"The Encore"
[00:07.36]Something I gotta tell somebody,
[00:10.93]just in case you didn't know
[00:14.79]I gotta show you where I came from,
[00:18.25]so you can see where I gotta go
[00:21.90]See I started out with nothing and
[00:25.31]I've been through some things
[00:28.17]But there really ain't a difference,
[00:31.64]I gotta gotta little change
[00:33.55]I've been hood rich and I've been broke
[00:36.55]Singing in the choir y'all, even sold ****
[00:39.81]See I've been clean and I've been high
[00:43.62]Lived like a king and I had to get by
[00:46.88]Had a couple tens in my bed at one time
[00:50.49]Them down as *****es when I didn't had a dime
[00:53.58]Seen it all, heard it all, did it all
[00:56.94]Appreciate the rise, hope I never gotta fall
[01:00.50]Always thought it would be good but I never had it this good
[01:09.73]I remember doing bad when a ***** didn't have,
[01:13.07]now I'm thinking back
[01:14.34]Always thought it would be good but I never had it this good
[01:20.05]Had to get it how I could,
[01:23.24]I was so misunderstood out the hood, now it's all good
[01:29.92]Old friends came in with, saying that I didn't act the same
[01:35.93]But I wasn't really different, it was them who started to change
[01:44.44]Had to go a new direction, didn't wanna let 'em go
[01:50.35]That was way before I noticed that they didn't wanna grow
[01:55.88]I've been hood rich and I've been broke
[01:58.83]Singing in the choir y'all, even sold ****
[02:02.15]See I've been clean and I've been high
[02:05.79]Lived like a king and I had to get by
[02:09.00]Had a couple tens in my bed at one time
[02:12.51]Them down as *****es when I didn't had a dime
[02:15.71]Seen it all, heard it all, did it all
[02:19.08]Appreciate the rise, hope I never gotta fall
[02:22.78]Always thought it would be good but I never had it this good
[02:31.70]I remember doing bad when a ***** didn't have,
[02:35.40]now I'm thinking back
[02:36.81]Always thought it would be good but I never had it this good
[02:46.01]Had to get it how I could,
[02:47.57]I was so misunderstood out the hood, now it's all good
