Is anyone out there?
Anyone?
Come on, man
Somebody answer
It's war out here, man
That's what I say
My nigga Spesh said I should show my face
'Cause if they don't see you, how they gon' know you great?
But me around a crowd right now is too big a show of faith
It's one thing just to know the hate
But I can feel it so deep inside, it causes my bones to ache
I won't give them my soul to take
You know this place had been slaughter, disorder
You could run game, but not on a pimp's daughter
These the things that I been taught, yeah
Extremities and limbs tortured, this sorta
The kind of feelings I felt when I seen Obama sip on that Flint water
Don't get caught up, how could your
Mental change if it's never challenged?
Told this youngin once he stopped
Spinning, he'll find a better balance
Had some talent, but he slid off the rails and it cost him
Grabbed his hammer, went drilling, and now it's nails in his coffin
What you offering? I came from that
Place where nobody's doors was locked
We stalked the block, the neighbors
Hit kids and nobody called the cops
Them Puerto Rocs called us Negros, but they never thought to stop
When fiends had bras and socks, DVDs in the barber shop
Your friends called your father "Pops
" At least you had a father, nigga
I was looking up to Phil Drummond, he was my father figure
Dreaming of or sleeping with Carlton's sister
Ended up getting my dick sucked by fiends in apartments quicker
After hour bars and liquor, dancing with a scarred-up stripper
Walking to the car in slippers, handing out some jars to sniffers
Guess you had to be there
That sign on the gate that told us "Beware"
But if we had listened, you think we'd be here?
I got rich visions, natural long hair
And I got chocolate skin with the sharpest pen
Saw more losses before I saw a win, it's hard to swim
Had to burn bridges, but that's the consequence, the cost is grim
Plus I'm still paying for all my father's sins, my heart is fenced
Off from the people I used to call my friends
Them niggas took miles off my favors, that's what they call a inch
Been starving since I was a poor kid on my mama's tits
I been on that shit that niggas now calling trends
Squeeze metals to 'em, we rebels to 'em
Leave a witness in terror, it's like the screams echo to 'em
Make it in hoops or rap? They said them dreams ghetto to 'em
Rappers think it's they time, I'm like a reschedule to 'em
'Cause I don't give mercy to rappers, it's like the devil to 'em
Bring shot to your head soon as I say hello to 'em
Make your body disappear, it's like they never knew 'em
Your family won't get your body back 'less I sell it to 'em
B to the L-O dust, the town where the ghetto sluts
Think a move to Atlanta is a sign that they leveled up
Just by the people that you run with could tell you're dumb
Why? 'Cause you hang around niggas I'm never trust
I don't wish you the best of luck, they walk with the Desert tucked
If they aim, then you better duck or end with your head in blood
Was taught that it's always somebody who had less than us
So I stayed in my lane and never worried 'bout catching up
