What Its Come To by T.I. Lyrics
[Intro]
Yeah
Damn, man this is what it's come to, mmm
Shit, ain't it fucked up?
This is what it's come to
Damn, damn
Man, I guess this is what it's come to
Shit, huh, huh
[Verse 1]
In the fire, I reside like the money do
Niggas'll try wearin' wires at the rendezvous
Don't nothin' kill niggas like needin' money do
For nothin', peel niggas, you sweet as honey dew
Ain't never been ashamed to look off in the mirror
At all my fears and imperfections, made 'em disappear, huh
People weird, be projectin' all they insecurities
Whatever thеy said he did he did that shit, I'm fuckin' sure of it, hеy
Behind the foreign cars, clothes, and expensive jewelry
I got a heart made of gold, motive be the purest
And they say hell have no fury like a woman's scorn
Fuck that, I'm crankin' up the jury, who you lyin' on shawty?
Extortion, is that what you got your mind on, shawty?
Tell 'em, "Get it how you live, shawty, I ain't goin' for it"
I'ma take it all away, every day of the week
Bet you thought this shit was sweet and I would pay in a week
And you could take this shit or leave it, I'm just sayin' my piece
Best look at all the traffic when you play in the street
Go put your face and reputation on it
These kinda claims deserve more than anonymous provocative conversations, don't it?
They say let's hit him with the one-two
You see how many other niggas this been done to?
Speak for the people, all you did, we can undo
Welcome to the COINTEL-PRO Part Two
Damn, this is what it's come to?
[Chorus]
Yeah
Damn, man this is what it's come to?
Mmm, shit
Ain't it fucked up? This is what it's come to
Damn, man, ayy, ayy-ayy
Man, I guess this is what it's come to
Haha, shit
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
[Verse 2]
Okay
Yachts on the Atlantic, please, let's not misunderstand it
I keep none against they will, if they leave, that's they disadvantage
Bitch, I'm above and beyond, Libra scales to set my key on
Heebie Jeebie, be gone and see all the bullshit she on
Approach me with that hoe shit, high step on that hoe like Deion
I see chivalry and misogyny is quite adjacent obviously
The object of the game is kill the king
So 'til the blade meet my neck on the guillotine
But I'ma be standin' tall like a statue (Huh)
Nigga fuck that, "He say, she say"
If the receipts, say that shit ain't factual
I was built for all this shit, God sent me here with a mission
That's somethin' can't let no human or no demon interfere with
In your feelings, can't conceal it, broke your spirit tryna heal it
That's the real Atlanta
Lot of rich white folks up in Buckhead wanna steal Atlanta
Kill and destroy everything that feel Atlanta
Fuck that, I'm still Atlanta
Since Meech was puttin' up billboards, facin' double bodies
And 12 was askin' me about him, but I stayed solid
They bust my house and found a gun, I was on probation
All 'cause I wouldn't participate in they investigation
I went to jail for a year, height of my career
But by the time I made it home, he got his case thrown out
Told him then, "Maybe you should chill"
He said, "Listen Tip, if ballin' why they want me
I'ma be ballin' 'til they get me"
Had to digest what he said, let it sit a minute
Had to respect it, shit, like it or not at least he committed
Willing to face whatever consequences for his vision
While I'm up against some lyin' ass bitches
Damn, this is what it's come to
[Chorus]
Yeah
Damn, man, this is what it's come to, mmm
Ain't it fucked up? This is what it's come to
Ayy, damn
Man, I guess this is what it's come to
Shit
Yeah
Damn, man this is what it's come to, mmm
Shit, ain't it fucked up?
This is what it's come to
Damn, damn
Man, I guess this is what it's come to
Shit, huh, huh
