Asian Da Brat – Backyard lyrics

[Intro]
We was in the backyard
Now we drive foreign cars
In the back end!

[Hook]
And I wash my face with tears
I don't know why they try to interfere with sin
Seat on cruise, press forward in the Benz
Green light! Remember when we was in the backyard!
Back end! Like a sport I just go hard, Mac-10!
Any nigga wanna die for it? Backyard!
Take control like a pornstar
Remember we was in the backyard
They cannot resist, I'm a star
Other day I had my wrist in a jar
Making plays, you was playing in the park
Green light! I was just in the backyard

[Verse 1]
And I don't do mess
I was dead and broke, finessing how I saw a check
You ain't achieving if you leave your knowledge to the rest
I stood out in school cause I was wearing what I felt
I let fake expose itself cause they gon' see me sweat
I put that S up on my chest, like I am Heaven sent
Why you so mad cause I'm winning and I passed a rookie?
Slept on couches now your favorite club they called to book me
I was posted in the trenches with a given dream
To get some money for the team and help my family feens
You ain't built like me, can't fuck with me, backyard serving lovely
All these hand outs, didn't nobody call when I was struggling

[Hook]
And I wash my face with tears
I don't know why they try to interfere with sin
Seat on cruise, press forward in the Benz
Green light! Remember when we was in the backyard!
Back end! Like a sport I just go hard, Mac-10!
Any nigga wanna die for it? Backyard!
Take control like a pornstar
Remember we was in the backyard
They cannot resist, I'm a star
Other day I had my wrist in a jar
Making plays, you was playing in the park
Green light! I was just in the backyard

[Verse 2]
Washing dishes in the backyard
Serving bails out the store, don't got no Nascar
Popping bars, on my lonely I been feeling dark
Take a Xanax, beat the problem like a charge
Said that I would never change
I'm a living witness right from the streets right to the fame
Put some weight up on my name, they saying it in vain
I can't help, but got all of my youngins' out the rain
Oh! We was walking 'round with no rain coat
Do you know the feeling of being a kid and alone?
Daddy was in jail, had to learn on my own
Mama wasn't home, had to wear my own throne
Please stay in your place, backyard selling cake
You may judge me now, but god make no mistakes
Please stay in your place, AK to your face
You may hate me now, but god make no mistakes

[Hook]
And I wash my face with tears
I don't know why they try to interfere with sin
Seat on cruise, press forward in the Benz
Green light! Remember when we was in the backyard!
Back end! Like a sport I just go hard, Mac-10!
Any nigga wanna die for it? Backyard!
Take control like a pornstar
Remember we was in the backyard
They cannot resist, I'm a star
Other day I had my wrist in a jar
Making plays, you was playing in the park
Green light! I was just in the backyard
