This is a song about "The hustle"

How they got these niggas on the tv selling miracles

I had to hustle, my back to the wall, ashy knuckles

Cause you can't knock the hustle

I'm on the block as usual

(cause you can't knock the hustle)

Ain't nothing here minimal

And dreamin', there ain't reason for breathin', can't knock the hustle,

They say "black is beautiful," but ask them beautiful

Riding shotgun uptown,blowin out the bubble

Growing up struggling jump back to the hustle

Got to the end of the tunnel

I can respect the hustle

To knock the hustle for real

Leave your inhibitions here

Gotta work now,sweat,and hustle for the bread

You tryin hard to maintain, then go head
