Lyrics:
I came from drop tops and old school Chevy's
Dope boys rollin' through, shittin' on ya heavy
Fifteens in the trunk beatin' down your block
Only 4 years old when Biggie got shot
I remember playing on the block, hanging on the block
Young niggas slanging on the block, getting off them rocks
Now we livin' better now, Coogi sweater now
Weather still getting colder, we could change the weather now
But I...
Came up in criminal days
Living these criminal ways, what can I say
Hugging the block every day
Grindin' and making a way
And that I pray, for better days
That it don't be the same tomorrow
Now I celebrate my sorrows with this bottle
And say
(Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey)
I pray for more better days
(Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey)
I know that I can feel change [x2]
Everyday ain’t good but everyday ain’t bad
Mama always said show thanks for what you have
Boy never forget to realize you're blessed
This cold world can rot you if you let it
Now I'm out here tryna get it, really out here tryna get it
Always knew that I would make it, maybe it was so prophetic
Cause I came from the bottom and the humbleness beginnings
From the youngest nigga grindin' to the youngest nigga wining
Came up in criminal days
Living these criminal ways, what can I say
Hugging the block every day
Grindin' and making a way
And that I pray, for better days
That it don't be the same tomorrow
Now I celebrate my sorrows with this bottle
And say
(Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey)
I pray for more better days
(Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey)
I know that I can feel change [x2]
'Fore you die you make your mark and reach new levels
Want the bread, want the diamonds and the bezels
And if these bitches that you want, have several
Just gotta know, lotta shit's temporary
It won't last, no, no, it won't last, no
Meaning it til' here
Next thing you know it's all gone
That's why I been on my grizzy outchea
Long as I grind, better days are near
Came up in criminal days
Living these criminal ways, what can I say
Hugging the block every day
Grindin' and making a way
And that I pray, for better days
That it don't be the same tomorrow
Now I celebrate my sorrows with this bottle
And say
(Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey)
I pray for more better days
(Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey, Hip-Hop, hey)
I know that I can feel change [x2]

👋
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Legendary song
Str8 Up!!!❤🔥
where is all the August fans at?? lets get these numbers up!!!!!🙌
Almost a year on and only 4 million views, I feel like this is one of the most underrated songs ever.
it is !!!
It really is 💯
danny garcia I knowwww
danny garcia not everyone is gonna know real music when they hear it. Even still for it to reach as many views and likes is still a blessing. As long as he's satisfied and as long as it is touching and inspiring ppl that's the main focus.
Celena Butler amen to thatttt 🙌💯
Whoever reading this God bless you and hope you have a beautiful day and always keep your head up.🙃🙏🏽
Amanda Amanda Right back atcha and then some!!!!!
Right back atcha😁😎
You to
Thank u & same 2 you 📖⚘🙏🏾
Amen God bless you as well
Came back here because of the Minnesota protest. August Alsina was definitely ahead of its time! #Iprayformorebetterdays
was? Is ahead of his time 💪🏾.
I admire this dude, and all that he stands for. Really not sure why the media doesn't spotlight young black men like August that are spreading all this positivity. Not all young black men are criminals, there are good, decent, smart and talented black men. August do your thing and keep shinning, we will keep supporting you and your music.
Honestly I use to feel the same but over the many years I realize that media and record companies will just ruin artists so those crooks can stay away from the talent ones 💯
Best comment🎯💯
Amen . Enough said . No need to debate . This is coming from a “Mot-“Her” that has a young cub who is soon to be 3 this May 30😍 May everyone grow and reach their fullest potential before it’s time to go back to the ancestors😇😩🙏🏽
August was a criminal, just never got caught
TREASURE Kim Junkyu promoting Him better than anyone 😂
Thanks August for Helping Junkyu improve his singing with your amazing style
i came here bc of him. lol
I was looking for a comment like this because Junkyu brought me here ❤️
junkyu taste is 😍
oh really?? Junkyu got taste, August Alsina is an amazing vocalist
It's so sad that the people with the most meaningless music make it so much further than the ones with such meaningful music.. But it's our fault for glorifying degrading music smh shows our intelligence
The soulja boy rap era
+Miya Nicole girl yess speak the truth
You're so right!
exactly u was saying the same thing but why
Truth 💯💯💯💯💯💯
August is ridiculously underrated
Definitely !
Fact!
Yep he is at the moment, but it's all about timing and as long as he keep grinding he'll get there, this is just the beginning for him he's talented so he will prevail ! #theskyisthelimit
He's very good ive been listenin to him since 2013 i use to didn't like him but i dislike everything before i like it nbs but he's very good 👏💯
I mean yeah people been sleeping on him but still on the rise tho his first album was good it likes his upcoming is gonna be better. Dont worry he's gonna become bigger.i feel like he's different and more original than a lot of other r&b artists.
August is one of the realist, is just because he's not going to sell his soul, like them sell outs, continue to do ur thing bra, it aint worth selling out
lil kim killed it Osbourne he did sell his soul
Michael Burns what do you mean
lil kim killed it Osbourne you are absolutely correct
Yes good look for this bro
Thats why he is so underrated
came back here remembering when kim junkyu from treasure said that he loved this song so much and this is what made him improve his vocal skills.
August isn't as big as he should be.
Facts!!
Afro Shinobi IKR!!
Because what he talking about is REAL STUFF. And most people don’t DONT WANNA HEAR PPL PROBLEMS🤷🏾♀️. And he should be BIGGER I AGREE.
Hes a virgo... Never want to be up... Low key.... Never loved lol
people don't know this kind of real..
August alsina got more bars and he speak more real shit more than these rappers.
+Noonie Brown LMFAOOOO, you got jokes bro. his a singer not a rapper, dad :/
Prontera-ot.com I just said that bitch.!

I thank him for improving junkyu singing 💕
Jesus. August is so humble and so talented. Had me boppin my head the whole time. STAY HUMBLE.
TardRow 💯
One of the greatest artist who didn't get the recognition he truly deserved.
ya
JUNKYU FANS DEFINITELY COME HERE 😛 He is right, August's songs is good 👍
Novalia Hesti i thank him for improving junkyu singing 💕💕💕
@frzna bbr glad to see him has improved himself but ... sad to see him in the cruel survival :")
YASHHHHHH!!!!!! IM TOO
He is not rapping but this is Real Hip-Hop...
He didn't win any bet awards this year,but he gonna make it just gotta keep pushing and keep grinding, im just proud of him to be there again this year
He had take a little break with his eye situation which is probably the reason why he didn't win anything
Im so obsessed with his testimony album, can't wait for the next album to drop.
I see how you said grinding, which is on of his songs
Sameul Bari lol yeah I did and I love that song , it's life 🙌💖
The bet awards doesn't recognize ppl with good music , they only recognize whose the most popular ex: j.Cole is the only artist in the last 25 yrs to go platinum on a album without any feature ....award he gets nothing
Heard this on the bet awards pre show
did he perform the song???
prya mewa no
prya mewa he just premiered the video but he sang the chorus part
Dandreg Chester THAT WHERE I HEARD THE SONG TO!!! ITS 2015 RIGHT lol WAIT YOU WATCH BET????????? OMG ME 2
prya mewa nOPE IT WAS THE VIDEO
August Alsina music is life
Trezure Stackhouse. he is my life
Trezure Stackhouse Beenot like my gubsan
True that
Fact 😣❤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯💯🔊🔊🔊🔊
Been years and I still love this song
August has always captivated his audience when he sings. It's inspiring to know he's versatile in his message. We hope to be just as versatile with our brand and what we are trying to accomplish.
Relevant in 2020 still
Old memories are resurfacing as I listen to these songs again. It’s been so long
August is so slept on it’s ridiculous.
So slept on... Makes me mad! 😡
Love, from South Africa.❤️🇿🇦
I pray for more better days. Blacks lives do matter. August is always putting out good messages. I live you Augie😘
He really does😊 i love him
Jorden Clark Black lives matter? What about other lives are they worthless? In my opinion black lives got all the attention they needed now it's time to move on.
+thesoldier it is not time to move on because there are still cops going around killing black people for no reason at all. But all live do matter though. We are just trying to stop all of the racism that's going on and that's the point of this song
1. Where did you get that "cops go out and kill black people for no reason" 2. The law enforcement won't let in a pshycopah who likes to go around and kill people for no reason, they have a mentally, physically tests so if one was suspected to be mentally insane then of course they won't let them work. 3 You're ignoring the fact the other races are treated similarly so facepalm on the "only black people get killed for no reason" and move on.Sierrah McNeill
+thesoldier well I wanna know why Sandra blands and a few other black people were killed. I'm not saying that black people should get all of the attention but it's still not right for cops to do these things to people for no reason at all. I am not going to move on until this whole racial situation is over. I believe that all races should be treated the same.
all his videos deserve more views honestly.
His songs are his real life. I love this man!! ❤❤
One of my favorites still here in 2018 💓
This song speeks real truth to people who live that every day
My bae 4 LIFE doe
