Lyrics Dave East – Maintain
Text:
Bino Rideaux:
Young nigga growin’ up, now I just wear plain jane
Them niggas ain’t built like us, them niggas lame lame
Money keep calling my line, just tell ’em the same thing
Do it for the block young nigga, for the block young nigga, gang gang
I was just focused, I was tryna get it, I was tryna maintain
These niggas bogus, they be getting over, they be playing fame games
I still feel the same pain
I hop in that coupe and I can’t hear the motor, I can’t feel the lane change
What happened to real niggas come first, explain things
I’m tryna keep consistent with the shit they tell me that the fame change
Niggas was with me, they be feeling different ’bout this shit ’til change came
Find me a bitch that never really been nowhere and take her way way
Ain’t got no time for nothing when you live life around the bank chase
Can’t take these bitches too serious, these bitches just play pay
Young nigga made me, count up the day to day
Young nigga growin’ up, now I just wear plain jane
Them niggas ain’t built like us, them niggas lame lame
Money keep calling my line, just tell ’em the same thing
Only break bread with my niggas, huh, gang gang
Do it for the block young nigga, for the block young nigga, gang gang
I was just focused, I was tryna get it, I was tryna maintain
These niggas bogus, they be getting over, they be playing fame games
I still feel the same pain
Dave East:
I still feel the same thing
We can’t leave no witness
I don’t want to hit it, I just want some brain brain
Niggas keep talkin’ ’bout they gettin’ money
Before all these foreigns I wasn’t important
Was hopping the train train
Where I’m from you either slang ‘caine
Play a sport or go and gang bang
I did all three, I came right out of jail
Then that’s when my lane changed
I got this guap, it’s fallin’ out my pockets
You try me and I blew the same thing
Already bust the Patek down
It’s time to go pick up the plain jane
I be in hoods where you can’t hang
Throw up my hood, nigga gang gang

Young nigga growin’ up, now I just wear plain jane
Them niggas ain’t built like us, them niggas lame lame
Money keep calling my line, just tell ’em the same thing
Only break bread with my niggas, huh, gang gang
Do it for the block young nigga, for the block young nigga, gang gang
I was just focused, I was tryna get it, I was tryna maintain
These niggas bogus, they be getting over, they be playing fame games
I still feel the same pain
