| Gluttony baby | |
| Is I needs what I see | |
| Gluttony baby | |
| Is us, aside to seat two | |
| [Intro] | |
| It’s knocking | |
| Man, they gon, they gon, man they gon knock this one | |
| Ride out to this | |
| [Verse 1] | |
| It sit deep in my chest, so let me express | |
| Grew up on 868, oh y’all don’t need the address | |
| It was ‘round CVS, we were so devious | |
| The city never sleeps, it be needing some rest | |
| The streets was a mess, and they still are | |
| Feel our pain, the bigger picture, we was all framed | |
| But the game is the game, so let it begin | |
| In these streets, these are the seven deadly sins | |
| Now the first is pride, though some call it vanity | |
| A hustler’s insanity can break up the family | |
| Pride can have a man stuck in his ways, not subject to change | |
| Knowing that I’ll end up in a grave | |
| It’s the arrogant [?] saying us Americans | |
| Messes up marriages, many sins, pride is parenting | |
| Like the second is something we all have | |
| Or felt, then cane or khan, it’s called wrath | |
| I seen a boss take it out on his staff | |
| I seen a crip take it out on a blood, causing a bath | |
| Never seen a man making money while he mad | |
| So hustle plus wrath, y’all do the math | |
| Now the third, you probably heard from MOB | |
| They say use them rocks to make em envy | |
| Envy, the cousin of jealousy, on the streets it’s a felony | |
| When *************s ************* hit you up [?] fidelity | |
| They hate it, to see you celebrated | |
| Counting my paper, ************* you could have made it | |
| Let me stay with that part, takes us to the fourth | |
| Where *************s is lazy, that’s what we call sloth | |
| Want you to break em off, getting money it costs | |
| For you to be a boss, ain’t no taking off | |
| Now the myth about the fifth, it only happens when we eat | |
| It’s gluttony, this is how it happens on the street | |
| It’s a dude that’s getting paid in full, causing [?] | |
| Always played his four, but the way this ************* move | |
| He is never full and he gon want your food | |
| Don’t overdo it, that’s an underrated rule | |
| The sixth is a fix that’s in all of us | |
| When I get drunk and want to bust, this is what we call lust | |
| When the drawers go down, the guards go down | |
| Cause a ************* is somebody getting robbed right now | |
| Okay the seventh is a seed that many believe | |
| Is the cause of em all, this is what we call greed | |
| Knew some cousins that was hustling, one of em ended up busting the other | |
| Greed is a mother, it’s greedy mother******s like Madoff | |
| Cops getting paid off, greedy companies got my people getting laid off | |
| Before I sign off, in the sins we living | |
| The good thing is we can be forgiven | |
| The seven deadly sins |
