Tug-O-War Songtext

von Pre-Fight Hype

We push they pull
Give or take an inch
Each side trying to get just a little bit more
Everybody I know
Out working, hustlin, strugglin
Trying to make something from nothing
We push they pull
Give or take an inch
Each side trying to get just a little bit more
Everybody I know
Out working, hustlin, strugglin
Trying to make something from nothing
We push

(We push) Up at the crack of dawn
Putting in a days work before morph alarms are goin on
Don't sense
Sittin round doin nothin
Gotta hit the ground runnin
The streets like a stampede over oxygen
Thieves we ain't havin none of that
Got breathing underwater apparatus to kill the chatter
By any means necessary get the mens their meat
They dont be dead in the street
Mama didn't raise no foo
To be a face on the front page news
(ain't that the truth?)
Nothing more, nothing less
Check the floor for the mess
You'd be surprised at what they leave behind enemy lines
We just read between em
Papa got a brand new sign
Go feed the demons
And that's all for good reason
Gotta keep that hunger for themselves
Give em something more than hell
Bustlin hustlin rushin by the hundreds

We push they pull
Give or take an inch
Each side trying to get just a little bit more
Everybody I know
Out working, hustlin, strugglin
Trying to make something from nothing
We push they pull
Give or take an inch
Each side trying to get just a little bit more
Everybody I know
Out working, hustlin, strugglin
Trying to make something from nothing
We push

(We push) Through the chronic streets everyday making noise
All it takes is a voice
Whos the loudest in the streets squekin
We all getting the grease
Don't feel like we runnin the place
More exits to escape
I thank this job
Probably the robbers gonna keep on with the masquerade
We go ahead and play the game
We know the steps it takes for that next plateau
Gotta pick your spots and run with em cuz cash flow
Don't come in buzzin nothing when we right there
(Right there)
Front and centre stage
Army general heading the brigade
Mission is the nine to five
Trying to squeeze a dollar out of 15 cents
Should have never been
Please that's like shots to the head
Don't even play
Just duck and swing
The shit is real
And getting more real every second of the day
Looking for a better way
You know the deal

We push they pull
Give or take an inch
Each side trying to get just a little bit more
Everybody I know
Out working, hustlin, strugglin
Trying to make something from nothing
We push they pull
Give or take an inch
Each side trying to get just a little bit more
Everybody I know
Out working, hustlin, strugglin
Trying to make something from nothing
We push

(We push) back and forth but the struggles stay the same
Like we on a crash course
Like a riot going on inside, outside
Seem more simple than plain
Quiet before the storm made the damn thing change
Everyone can feel it
Like we on a global teeter-totter to feed reporters
They need to sorta
Trying to keep us caught up in a tangle web
Leaning more toward the leading cause of death like alcohol and cigarettes
We smoke we drink to take away the stress
And that's just to keep from jumpin off a ledge
We gotta take control of the pressures of the day to day make it make sense
Just another fence hurdle in our way
We got the knowledge, tools and weapons to get attention
It all depends on how we use em
We in the middle of a revolution
We all makin moves, now it's time for the movement

We push they pull
Give or take an inch
Each side trying to get just a little bit more
Everybody I know
Out working, hustlin, strugglin
Trying to make something from nothing
We push they pull
Give or take an inch
Each side trying to get just a little bit more
Everybody I know
Out working, hustlin, strugglin
Trying to make something from nothing
We push
