Always find myself coming back to this track after years go by. As the stress factor grows in my life, reminds me of this. Thank you Andre. And he smoked my blunt front row at catalyst in sc in 06’ 🙏👊
Cancer got my Dad 2 years ago. My Mother died last week from Covid... This song keeps me from losing my shit.. Every day is a blessing. It's harder to be ok than not give a fuck anymore. Honor and Loyalty keeps my soul half full...
bay area baby, grew up on all the bay shit, mac dre & nickatina we’re always top 2 for me, but as i’ve gotten older thru the years, nickatinas shit just gets harder over time shits like fine wine. the story line, the delivery style, & beat, especially with that bass guitar none of it sounds “old school” true definition of a classic. nickatina deserves his flowers hope he gets that, i feel like skate culture showed him more love then any music platform
When I was in a very dark place, alot of the things spoken in this track hit home. Being on the street hustling, losing good people over dumb shit, making money but not.being able to be happy, this, this sparked change in me.
Still hits the same as the first time I heard this banger shout out to all my boys who passed away we still here living each moment for y'al struggling in the stress factor l RIP
march 11th pisces here, "One side of my heart got love The other side is hate And boy that hate is staring love Right in it's fuckin face" I live this shit. Pisces shit.
I’m still fucking pissed off that nickatina wasn’t even brought up in that netflix show evolution of hip hop on Netflix they went to the bay an interviewed most of they’re big artists and didn’t even bring up Mac dre or nickatina 🤦♂️🤦♂️😤😤😤😤
Every word I feel you plagerised this off my heart where I have every word written In fire. Thank you. I couldn't have voiced it so well. My love to you and all the success this life has to offer.
Don't push me cause I'm close to the edge I'm trying not to lose my head Sometimes I sit alone And look deep into my soul And I starrin' down at something That's very out a control Tolerence at zero Emotions dead and gone If indo was a pebble Man consider me stoned Patience low I rest to go I got's to get ahead Mothafuck these hoes And them po-pos I gots to get my bread The streets say nothing nice They crooked like the idus And everybody dippin seein Who can get the highest But check this out Man, without a doubt And about who's comin' fresher And about that cab And protect that ass Don't panic under pressure My stabbin' like a whip Or better an alligator Temper going up and down like a Like a fucking elevator Bitch I want it now Don't give me no delay's My hustle got me trippin Liftin' from my turn away's Man this life is real No time to be an actor And I'll play that no man Let me know It's just a stress factor I want to grow old Have a kid and a place to sleep A down ass wife And when I die I'll rest in peace But man that's all a dream This donja got me bleak It got me feelin good But I forgot what I did last week Now look at my face This shit ain't fake The pain done turn to pressure Every nigga that know man feel me tho Don't cop down to a lessa My mother woke me up One day said "boy you gettin grown" Your momma has 3 jobs Your momma is gettin old So I took it as a hint When on my mission spree Mind full of hatred Got me fucka, time is hard you see That monkeys on my back And I can't get him off So whatever I do Mom it's just for you No matter what the cost I put that on my life Everything I see is dark Money is rare But I don't care Man stop that niggaz heart He's comin like a big wheel I'm comin like a tractor Man take this hate Run it's too late Man it's the stress factor Some think that I'm The Man Some think my shit don't stink But yes it do I thought you knew I'm not a coward or a fink One side of my heart got love The other side is hate And boy that hate is stealin love Right in it's fuckin face Women ask me how I'm livin I tell them day by day With a donja joint That lovely voice Of Mr. Marvin gay Man I gots to get away That just might do some good But every time I gets away I miss the fuckin hood My homie lost his job He don't know how to react So I do our thangs to help him out Like took a little crack But that shit's over rated And it gets Complicated But you would never know From that cat flow And the way the pictures painted Motherfuckers whisper And think I don't hear them And wonder why I'm over high And never will go near them Much love to all my niggas From workin' men to jackas Cause no matter what you feel it's Cause it's called the stress factor
Funny how this came up in my algorithm today. I am seeing and hearing this song for the first time on January 10 2024. I prefer Bay Area-made music made before 2008, so I wasn't looking out for this. "Like a religion, where I am from and stay, my own personal religion, not associated with nobody. Me I am global, not local, representing the whole globe, not no tiny inlet Bay on the Pacific Ocean with 100 newly built cities and towns surrounding it mang", I'm just a sucka tho. I know. bJz I will be looking for today, I will get one I think, for free... Just like Too $hort says on stage in every city he goes to. Good Luck! It is like someone in the Mountain View RU-vid Google offices wanted me to hear this today. Maybe. Maybe not. I'm gonna go scrounge up a couple 140 Rupees so I can listen to something later this month. Sober as a Joe right now, just drinking coffee and water in the morning. No drugs or nothing in meeeeeee. Definitely no Cannibus CBD THC, maybe once or twice a month or two. 4 times a year or somethin I smoke anymore. Not my thing, like I wished it to be from 1994-2003 when indulged and sold and knew fools that grow, man it isn't my world yo. Fuck WEED. Then in 2004-2010 I pretended like I liked that shit, nah, I know now its not for me. Me smoking my entite life a way, "Oh Hell No, beat up on the fags (which is what British people call cigarettes) come back and now I am even sicker on the AVE, not just any AVE, but every mutha fuckin AVE. From Rome to Rio.
