I just wanna be a real nigga
See that's the way I was raised
Mentality from my family passed down back in the days
Ever since a youngin' if you ain't a real nigga, you buggin
We was outside and thuggin' trigger fingers, huggin
Gotta shoot it, can't be bluffin' when they think you won't do nothin
Then it's past the pushin', shovin' gotta show em' you'll do somethin
That's that real nigga spirit in you
Or you fall into
Be by that you can't pretend to
That's why these niggas befriend you
Now you earnin' your presence and stripes and reputation
So when niggas say your name in these streets ain't no debatin'
Who you is
Where you from
What you got
What you do
What you did
Who you slid
Who you shot
We got proof
They tell you that's what you need to survive in these streets
Same way society lie about these college degrees
Still we fall victim
The streets just as crooked as the system
Ask them niggas in prison how many letters they sent them
How many homies come visit
Who drop dollars on books
They walkin' round screamin' free you tell me how dumb that shit looks
Ain't no sense in catchin' bids just tryna do it big
I learned that shit as I got older now I'm teachin' my friends
Especially ones with kids cause see we gotta save the youth
Must be talkin' to myself niggas hate to hear the truth
I just be thinkin
Lookin' round at my circle see it's shrinking
My niggas keep on drinkin' can't notice our sip is sinkin
From inside
We gotta do better, dawg
I know it just sounds like another fuckin' lecture, dawg
But if we don't straighten up and all come together, dawg
How we gonna elevate to another level, y'all
Still I'm ignored
From tryna get all these niggas on one accord
Constantly beatin' this horse with no sense of remorse
I mean of course
