[Lyric] 2 Legends Nipsey Hussle Kobe Bryant Tribute (Alexandros Sarafis)

[Intro]

(huh)
R.I.P Kobe Bryant
R.I.P Neighbourhood Nip
Katalaves

[Verse 1]

They said perfection is perception (perception)
They gonna judge you for your misdirections (yeah)
You take an L if you don’t learn that lesson (that lesson)
Your worst mistake can be your biggest blessing
See an educated mind is like a loaded weapon (blow)
You load the clip by asking every question (nah)
They might call you stupid but don’t fear rejection
Just never quit coz that’s the only way you’ll stop progressing (ahh)
The root of evil is jealous and greed (greed)
Even your closest friends will switch on you for extra green (green)
It’s hard to visualise it now but fam in time you’ll see (see)
Some people ride your train so they can boost their self esteem (ahh)
Keep your circle tight and do right
And when you chase your dream just ensure you never lose sight
Of why you do it that’s your foundation
The journey holds more value than the destination
[Chorus]

2am we out in LA
Just passed the staples centre doing 80 on the freeway (skrt)
Blue Laces on the airwaves
Grammy weekend I can’t believe Kobe passed away (ayy)
2 legends died before their time (ahh)
Hearing them speak gives me wisdom and some piece of mind (neighbourhood)
Got my mentality from 24 (ahh)
And tatted Nipsey on my arm cos that’s my mentor

[Verse 2]

What’s a life if you ain’t living (you ain’t living)
You can be blind and still have vision (still have vision)
Life ain’t about luck it’s bout decisions (it’s bout decisions)
I gave back all that I was given (all I was given)
Self hate can lead to prison (lead to prison)
Your enemies are unforgiving
I learn't this from the beginning (uh huh)
To be a good man surround yourself with amazing women
You ain’t great if you don't elevate (nah)
Being a boss ain’t good enough unless you demonstrate (yeah)
Can’t be rich if you don’t delegate (listen)
And can’t be wealthy without real estate (ahh)
Respect is all about integrity (yeah)
Understand you must invest to build your equity (your equity)
Success is not a recipe
Master all of that I swear to god you’ll leave a legacy
[Chorus]

2am we out in LA
Just passed the staples centre doing 80 on the freeway (skrt)
Blue Laces on the airwaves
Grammy weekend I can’t believe Kobe passed away (ayy)
2 legends died before their time (ahh)
Hearing them speak gives me wisdom and some piece of mind (neighbourhood)
Got my mentality from 24 (ahh)
And tatted Nipsey on my arm cos that’s my mentor

[Skit]

What he did in leading the way
Through his actions, through how he lived right
Entrepreneurial spirit, giving back spirit
Empower and challenge the next generation
To take their own initiative, to be leaders in their own right
It’s extremely important
It's a shame lost a life so young
But i think that legacy that he has created
Will live on and create a far greater impact than he could have ever imagined

[Chorus]

2am we out in LA
Just passed the staples centre doing 80 on the freeway (skrt)
Blue Laces on the airwaves
Grammy weekend I can’t believe Kobe passed away (ayy)
2 legends died before their time (ahh)
Hearing them speak gives me wisdom and some piece of mind (neighbourhood)
Got my mentality from 24 (ahh)
