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.

Every day that I'm alive, I try to life it to the fullest
Keep my pistol and believe me I'll pull it
If a nigga tryna kill me, I know what I gotta do
Hope somebody feel me 'cause you know that I done seen a lot
Just a young nigga grinding for the block, tryna reach the top
Being broke would turn the bitches off, now they pussy pop
Tryna get the cash I got, now found love
'Cause all these bitches ass got shots and they so proud
But I ain't judging, if you thought I was, I wasn't
'Cause I don't wanna hit it once and I ain't cuffing
Young, wild niggas on here, can't tell me nothing
'Cause I remember when a nigga ain't had nothing
Now I came up, I got a lil something, tryna turn a lil bit to a lot
Like when lovers turning cocaine to pot
I went through the soda straight out the box
Hoping when this shit drop it will rock, hoping when my shit drop it will rock

'Cause ain't shit changed even since my nigga Pac got banged
Some of the players switched up and it's the same old game
I see no change, so I guess I gotta be that change
I'm just out here doing what I gotta do
Showing young niggas how to make it through
'Cause I had to get it out the muscle, I can never loose the hustle
'Cause I represent the struggle a change
Guess now you can see there's a better way
So when we there, we'll make it to a better place
Guess it's looking like this shit will change
I'm hoping I can be that change

We could be that change
We could be that change
We could be that change
Make the whole world change
We could be that change
We could be that change
We could be that change

So many people outchea with nowhere to go
Mother's loosing their children for reasons nobody know
Places with no suns and nothing can grow
And people in poverty wishing they could be more
Making brand new kicks can make you rich
I rather be in brand new whips than pay our rent
Single momma's got 4 kids the income's fixed
Baby daddy's out on bond, still ain't shit
Never took the time to notice
The person in the reflection is the real focus
If we could change with them then I'll notice
Historically ain't nobody looking out for us
all they ever had was doubt for us

Cause ain't shit changed even since my nigga Pac got banged
Some of the players switched up and it's the same old game
I see no change, so I guess I gotta be that change

Yeah I'm guilty of daydreamin'
That I could change the world
You can laugh all you want 
But you can't blame a man for dreamin' 
And I seen so many people life go downhill, because they
Gave up they stopped believin'
They just stopped dreamin'
