August Alsina

Born and bred from the streets of New Orleans, Louisiana, enter into the game, 21-year-old August Alsina... With the love and hustle of the Crescent City running through his veins, August is eager to follow in the footsteps of the NOLA music legends that paved his way. His recently inked deal with Def Jam Recordings looks to be a great step in the right direction, but music wasn't always in his future. August learned at an early age that drugs and money could make you, or break you. With both his father and stepfather battling crack addiction, August's mother moved their family to Houston, Texas in search of a fresh start. But Houston provided no happy ending.

Save the world (save the world)

(Ow)

Get yours, 'cause I'ma get mine's today
I'm sure, won't change my mind today
No choice, I gotta find a way
I'm on the grind, 365, got no time to waste
And I'm gon' work like they gon' put me in the ground today (today)
'Cause I'm ain't sure they ain't gon' put me in the ground today (today)
So, I'm gon' work like they gon' put me in the ground today (ayy, ayy)
I ain't certain they won't put me in the ground today (ayy, ayy)

Still goin' hard everyday, tryin' to overcome, that's real
Still speaking from the heart, tryin' to give people something they could feel
Still N.O. raised H-Town, baby
Gotta keep it trill
Still wake up, praying to God to show me the fake from the real

I'm still chasin' the paper ain't nothing changed
Still gotta pay the bills
Still gotta be there for my nieces, and I just say I will
Seems like everyday I feel like giving up and giving in
Feel like I ain't got a choice
I can't sink I gotta swim

Gotta keep runnin' the race, that's why I'm keeping the faith
Gotta be grateful, nigga you made it
And I ain't stoppin', keepin' it poppin'
Know that they hate it, but I'ma treat 'em the same
They gon' keep chasin' the fame, tell 'em to stay in they lane

Get yours, 'cause I'ma get mine's today
I'm sure, won't change my mind today
No choice, I gotta find a way
I'm on the grind, 365, got no time to waste
And I'm gon' work like they gon' put me in the ground today (today)
'Cause I ain't sure they ain't gon' put me in the ground today (today)
So, I'm gon' work like they gon' put me in the ground today (ayy, ayy)
I ain't certain they won't put me in the ground today (ayy, ayy)

'Til I'm six feet under, I'ma grind
First thing wake up, money on the mind
When you like me, came up in the dark, you can't help but shine
When yo' niggas out here dying, locked up doing time
You gon' hustle like there's no tomorrow
Stack that paper high, and get the f*ck up outta dodge
Buy the house you always wanted, foreigns all in yo' garage
Diamonds all over yo' watch, haters back home on your block
See what you got and they plot
Hopin' that they catch you slippin' or maybe you forgot

Gotta keep runnin' the race, that's why I'm keeping the faith
Gotta be grateful, nigga you made it
And I ain't stoppin' keepin' it poppin'
Know that they hate it, but I'ma treat 'em the same
They gon' keep chasin' the fame, tell 'em to stay in they lane

Get yours, 'cause I'ma get mine's today
I'm sure, won't change my mind today
No choice, I gotta find a way
I'm on the grind, 365, got no time to waste
And I'm gon' work like they gon' put me in the ground today (ground today)
'Cause I'm ain't sure they ain't gon' put me in the ground today (ground today)
So, I'm gon' work like they gon' put me in the ground today (ground today, ayy, ayy)
I ain't certain they won't put me in the ground today (ayy, ayy)

Ground today, ayy
Ground today, ayy
