God Knows I Try

You don't know no lie
You don't know no lie
You don't know no lie
God knows I try

I try to stay on a righteous path
But the devil in my way he on my righteous ass
Don't give fuck what you say because I might just laugh
You want to know why because I been there and done that
Niggas up the thang on me I make the guns clap
Running to the mother fucking people I want your tongue black
That's fucked up you was from the block you can't come back
To live like that ducking bullet's and stressing
I don't run to the cops like bitches be yelling
I did everything in the book except the snitching and telling
Because I heard that's how you get your stitches in heaven
Please hear me out I ain't trying to be a jerk man
Fuck the fast I ain't trying to be in the third lane
Was locked up twice gotta son you fucking bird brain
The shit a no brainier
With all the killing going on in the chi I'm scared to put up the banger

You don't know no lie
You don't know no lie
You don't know no lie
God knows I try

I remember when I got robbed
Yeah they caught a nigga slipping right up on that block
Man that shit was real foul because the bogus part
I turned to find out real talk I had knew the nigga
Filled with blind rage one day was about to shoot the nigga
Not even caring he was standing with a group of niggas
Couple yards more yeah I was about to do the nigga
Low profile and I'm far from a bitch bro
Twelve slid up nigga I was about to get low
They was on me no they was on them yo
That plans over and out nigga ten four
I almost went to jail and caught a body at the same time
Telling you the truth and sorry nigga can't lie
I'm telling you the shit with no apologies and take pride
Because I don't fuck with nobody
When you underestimate your opponent you get hit with the shot T

You don't know no lie
You don't know no lie
You don't know no lie
God knows I try
