King Von – What It's Like lyrics
[Intro: Music Video]
You know who the fuck it is man. All these niggas in the city dead, man. And niggas that hate us, but they ain't gon' step outside them gangs though 'cause they know... King Von you gon' say his name, King Von
[Dialogue: fbi Agents]
Fbi Agent 1: His name is Devon Bennett A. K. A King Von. He's been on the street for too long, I want him off the street today! You guys ready?
Fbi Agent 2: Ready sir
Fbi Agent 3: Let's do it
[Intro]
Von, Von
Von, Von!
[Producer Tag: Chopsquaddj]
[Chorus]
Let me tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it's like (what it's like)
Let me tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it's like (yeah!)
Let me tell you what it's like (what it's like)
Let me tell you what it's...
Let me tell you what it's like (what it's like!)
When you fightin' for your life (damn!)
Let me tell you what it's...
Let me tell you what it's like (what it's like)
I'm finna tell you what it's like (what it's like)
Let me tell you wha...
[Verse 1]
Let me tell you what is life (what?)
Fightin' forty-five to life (damn!)
In the room with a hype boy, nigga, you don't like (what?!)
When you seen your homie
First thing that he gave you was a knife (damn!)
I'm tryna tell you that it's real (yeah!)
You don't know how it feel (damn!)
When you lose that plea, it's like speedin' down a hill (vroom!)
And your brakes don't work, pray to God that he take that wheel
You don't know how it go (plea)
You hope the witness don't show (shit)
Court date's comin' slow
Baby mama, she a ho' (bitch!)
And the opps still slidin' tryna find out who killed fo'
Boy this shit ain't no joke (nah), and I know this fo'sho
'cause the judge first offer fifty-four (damn!) (damn!)
Bro he think you a ho' (ho')
Tell your lawyer let's go
Suit up nigga it's time for war
[Chorus]
Let me tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it's...
Let me tell you what it's like (what it's like)
When you fightin' for your life (damn!)
Let me tell you what it's...
Let me tell you what it's like
I'm finna tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it's...
I'm finna tell you what it's like
[Verse 2]
Process go slow (go slow)
I can't sleep it's too cold (it's too cold!)
My bond no ho'
First stop state bail 'cause I'm still on parole (damn!) (damn!)
See I was probably somewhere in the hole
Caught a opp that killed bro
Beat his ass, boy, you know how it go (what?!) (what?!)
And I was in the cell with D Rose
When they gave him that time, on O shit hurt my soul
(damn!) (damn!)
Don't quit gotta fight 'em (gotta fight 'em)
You young, you black, they don't like you (they don't like you)
You got a son on the way, if they take you away
He could fuck around and be just like you (just like you)
Got his hands on the Glock and the rifle (and the rifle!)
Tryna put some hot in a rival (boom!) (boom!)
Lookin' up time flyin' right by you (damn!)
Time's hard gotta lean on the bible
[Chorus]
(x2)
Let me tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it's like (what it's like)
Let me tell you what it's like
Let me tell you what it's like (yeah)
Let me tell you what it's like (what it's like)
Let me tell you what it's...
Let me tell you what it's like (what it's like)
When you fightin' for your life (damn!)
Let me tell you what it's...
Let me tell you what it's like (what it's like)
I'm finna tell you what it's like (what it's like)
Let me tell you wha...
[Outro]
Aye on this is no joke, like on some for real shit. These fuckin' people playin' with us man. Aye when I got booked back in 2014 for that shit, and my arresting officer he brought me downstairs to get processed and three type of them came out. One of 'em get that... Ye Nine that's my work, and that other officer got that D-Rose, "Yeah that's my work," the other officer got that cdai, "Yeah that's my work." And what they mean by when they say that's their work, is that they opened a charge and put them away, that's their work you know? So they playin' this shit like a game like givin' us time, like a game see what I'm sayin'? This shit ain't no joke
Let me tell you what it's like!
You know who the fuck it is man. All these niggas in the city dead, man. And niggas that hate us, but they ain't gon' step outside them gangs though 'cause they know... King Von you gon' say his name, King Von
