Uh, I stayed up the longest when my nigga died
I poured up some more so I could stop from crying
Relapsed after quitting like my second time
But I know I just wanna numb the pain that's inside
I know I just wanna clear the rage in my mind
My younger days but I still feel the same all the time
Growing, Granny used to yell my name all the time
Like the same as if I'm on the stage yelling lines
And I might surprise you but I never tell you lies
If you knew what I knew, just be thankful you alive
Grown man game, now we racing with the wise
He ain't being patient now he facing his demise
This shit what you make it
Popped out everyday with my head high in the field even though I'm aching
Honestly, I never thought I'd take shit where I'm taking it
I was way too busy on some fuck shit, I wasn't chasing it
Now I'm driving that shit real fast like I'm racing it
Guess I'm tryna duck my past, had enough of facing it
Nigga still won't test my gangsta though, he know I'm acing it
I deserve myself a victory so much I'm tasting it
This for all of mine

How I cried a whole ride, folks funeral
That day a nigga would've died if I did what I used to do
Wanna stop myself I tried, said I will, I lied
Swear ain't did nothin' all these years but that that shit still inside (gangsta)
Won't advise you, live this street life 'less you wanna die
Can't come on no hits with us unless you wanna drive
That boy young and full of pain, look him in the eyes
All he know is gangbang' that's why his Sox hat to the side
Whole war was a game changer they hit Lil' Roc on the 9
And of course we still gone slide, but I be cryin' for one of mine
Ra and Roshawn only sixteen this year, now they totin' iron
But been losing loved ones since a baby how they gone decide
Loved the streets so much I cried to ma, "Why I can't go outside?"
Hiding pistols in the house putting on my side to go outside
Since I lost cap been full of anger, homicide stay on my mind
I adapted if everybody savage how I'm gone survive?
