Lyrics of 614 by Lekan

Part I

Intro
(Bongo by the way)

Chorus
All I know it's been a long time comin'
Test my faith but I can't run from it
Drown my sorrows, but I swam up from it
Pay dues, blood, sweat and tears

Verse
See, I was born by the river
Had to dig out the mud
Had to drop out to get it
Saw the tears from my mama
Hope my father prayin' for me
Told my brother, "I'ma do it"
Told my sister that I'm sorry
But I gotta make a move
Just a kid with a dream from the Northside
Winter nights in the car sleepin' outside
Had to turn nightmares into better days
Had to go our separate ways
Had to make my rainy days confetti when we celebrate 'cause

Chorus
All I know it's been a long time comin'
Test my faith but I can't run from it
Drown my sorrows, but I swam up from it
Pay dues, blood, sweat and tears

Outro
I put that on my soul
My soul, my soul, my soul, my soul (Oh-oh)
I put that on my soul
Lord knows, won't bend, won't break, won't fold (Yeah)
Oh no

Part II

Chorus
(Bongo)
6-1-4
Ridin' dirty, sittin' low
(Real n***a) never fold
Hittin' roads from Broad Street to Karl Road
'Til I'm gone (Oh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
6-1-4
Shotgun (Bad bitch), centerfold (Ride with me)
Switchin' lanes, never switchin' codes
When you on this side drop the lo'

Verse
I was out the way (Out the way)
I was on the move (Move, yeah)
Bendin' corners, yeah, bussin' moves (Bussin')
Northern lights, dark roads
Still a long way from a lost soul
Still that rose that grew from the concrete (Grew)
To Leveque Tower suites from the projects (Ooh)
Been a long, long way, but we got here (We got here)
Down to slide for my day ones (No, ooh-ooh-ooh, woah-ooh-ooh)

Chorus
6-1-4
Ridin' dirty (Ridin' dirty), sittin' low (Yeah)
Never fold (Never fold)
Hittin' roads from Broad Street to Karl Road (Karl Road)
'Til I'm gone (Oh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
6-1-4
Shotgun (Bad bitch), centerfold (Ride with me)
Switchin' lanes, never switchin' codes (Switchin')
When you on this side drop the lo' (Drop the lo')

Outro
6-1-4
Ridin' dirty, sittin' low
Never fold
Hittin' roads from Broad Street to Karl Road
'Til I'm gone (Bongo)
(Bongo)
