Kamaiyah – 10 Toes High lyrics

[Intro]
To this life I got accustomed
Been through all the fuck shit
Gotta keep it pushing but that's I don't why I don't trust shit
On my grind, I got right back into hustling
Ten toes high, I stand tall, I'm never stumbling

[Verse 1]
Always thought that I would make it, I just knew I would
Hustle hard, have heart and patience, I just knew I could
Rap my ass off nigga, it is true I'm good
To be settlin' no, I am too hot for it
I'm too hard for that settling shit (Hmm-hmm)
Yes rap music, I'm peddling it (Hmm-hmm)
I'm killin' hoes on some competitive shit (Hmm-hmm)
West Coast culture, I'm embedded it (Hmm)
And if you can't respect my art, you don't respect my heart
In my career, I invest my all (My all)
Yes it is true, you reject my calls (My calls)
Had the youngin' blues, I had to jet on my dawg
But I won't let them kill my spirit
In my music, you gon' hear it
Won't fade, I'm not disappearing
Put my pain, all in my lyrics

[Chorus]
To this life I got accustomed
Been through all the fuck shit
Gotta keep it pushing but that's I don't why I don't trust shit
On my grind, I got right back into hustling
Ten toes high, I stand tall, I'm never stumbling
Complaining about my faults it ain't no good in that
Done been through it all, from the good and bad
When they push, I stand tall, I'm good at that
I knew this journey'd be hard, wish I would get mad

[Verse 2]
They wanna see me cry and break my spirit
So I stand high, point blank period
The tears from my eyes, just define how I'm living
I push and strive 'cause with time comes healing
I done been through it all, haven't I? (Hmm-hmm)
Had my back against wall, still I fight (Hmm-hmm)
What kinda message I'm sending if I let them stop me living?
I'm ten toes down with it, standing high (Hmm)
It ain't no such thing as family in business (Business)
You make choices and folks in they feelings (Feelings)
They speak behind your back, ain't no facts when you mad
And for that, I will not show forgiveness
No I won't let you kill my soul
I'll go hard to reach my goals
My old friends can be my foes
I'll still stand tall up on ten toes

[Chorus]
To this life I got accustomed
Been through all the fuck shit
Gotta keep it pushing but that's I don't why I don't trust shit
On my grind, I got right back into hustling
Ten toes high, I stand tall, I'm never stumbling
Complaining about my faults it ain't no good in that
Done been through it all, from the good and bad
When they push, I stand tall, I'm good at that
I knew this journey'd be hard, wish I would get mad

[Outro]
When they push, I stand tall, I'm good at that
When they push, I stand tall, I'm good at that
I knew this journey'd be hard, wish I would get mad
