I strained to obtain so I could give more |
| [00:36.82] |
Most dangerous when there was nothin' to live for |
| [00:39.03] |
For that fetti bag, ready to let the six pour |
| [00:42.00] |
Was on nothin' long enough, need a big score |
| [00:44.62] |
The harmony dreamin' had me constantly schemin' |
| [00:46.98] |
Rarely peace, and barely a beast, armed like a demon |
| [00:49.36] |
Singin' tough upbringin', swore it was the hardest |
| [00:52.66] |
A lot of years starvin', before I was a artist |
| [00:55.14] |
When bringin' tomorrow the sorrow plus the hurt |
| [00:58.11] |
We finally eatin', reapin', it's just dessert |
| [01:00.63] |
It's just, so trust my work from dusk to dirt |
| [01:03.24] |
Committed rhymes, if you give it time, much is learned |
| [01:06.50] |
Firm dense, but earn strength with a young store |
| [01:08.91] |
Brought hammers to grammar school - hence the gun talk |
| [01:11.89] |
The coke drought made it a cesspool |
| [01:14.94] |
What they ail is steel, need a fresh jewel |
| [01:17.08] |
Enthralled in crime not more but nah less cruel |
| [01:19.53] |
Attractive street where active eat the less drool |
| [01:22.24] |
I speak brass tacks to my last acts |
| [01:24.93] |
My gift might be missed if mixed with trash raps |
| [01:27.90] |
The nights whole, slice your loaf if you ain't breakin' bread |
| [01:30.47] |
Some hate wait and beg, we take instead |
| [01:36.82] |
Mommy told me, "Be a good boy |
| [01:37.80] |
Need you alive, please survive, you my hood joy" |
| [01:39.53] |
Pops told me, "Stay strapped, son |
| [01:41.56] |
You need the shotty, be a body or catch one" |

Where you from? During what years? |
| [01:57.80] |
You from the slum, where you was upstairs? |
| [02:00.45] |
What you seen? What you been through? |
| [02:03.88] |
Where your team? What your men do? |
| [02:06.85] |
In over your head, who gon' defend you? |
| [02:09.74] |
Who gon' defend you? |
| [02:10.74] |
Demonstrative, get you popped where the monsters live |
| [02:13.85] |
Your people pay for your mistakes, hope they comp' your wiz |
| [02:16.45] |
From honor, I don't speak drama I don't know about |
| [02:19.09] |
I hold the pen, ain't goin' know how it was going out |
| [02:21.80] |
Not blessed, divine, want to live good the rest are mine |
| [02:24.72] |
Fly rewards for my recordings, don't stress the shine |
| [02:27.53] |
Wrote the screenplay, direct, and set design |
| [02:29.92] |
They writin' deadlines, I ain't pressed for time |
| [02:32.67] |
That haste makes waste, you saunder and slip |
| [02:34.87] |
But I find when formin' a script, let's ponder a bit |
| [02:38.99] |
