[Part 1: Goondocks II]
[Verse 1]
I see reflections start to flicker
My pupils getting paler and my blood been getting thicker
I gotta note myself on who I'm seeing in the mirror
Scar or Simba
Through my core these snakes are lyin' as they slither
Stuck in hoops
An outcast to the torn and paler youth
If a goal ain't have a net then other boys just didn't shoot
Shift the post and you'll see silhouettes of sabre teeth
Facades ain't savin' me
These birds are flying, all I see is meat
These vultures eating at me, I've been praying for a dove
Through push and shove
Try be careful what I 'come a product of
This shallow love
A hollow breast
These wolves are running through my waters stealing rest
Suffocate
Skin turned metal, I've been feeling little less
Fear no ache
Got my hands around my neck, praying for another breath
Just a beast beating on his chest
Knock, knock, hoping for response, is something left?
Just a beast beating on his chest

[Pre-hook]
I'm just hoping that it's by my side
I'm just hoping that it's by my side
There at the flip of a coin
It's been flushed by the drain
I'm just hoping that it's by my side
I'm just hoping that it's by my side
There at the flip of a coin
It's been flushed by the drain
[Hook]
We the goons, we the goons, we the children of the wrath
We the goons, we the goons, we the children of the wrath
We the goons, we the goons, we the children of the wrath
Get it back, mafucker, get it back (get it back)
We the goons, we the goons, we the children of the wrath
We the goons, we the goons, we the children of the wrath
We the goons, we the goons, we the children of the wrath
Get it back, mafucker, get it back (get it back)
[Verse 2]
God, hold my tongue, I need the silencers
Been wildin', trying', fighting' any nigga, best come quiet, son
They lyin', I've been firin', got 'em singin' like a choir, son
Momma, please don't look, I haven't tried become a violent one
I grip my soul with the force of two cars
But the handbrake start to slide away
They told us this is what we need to be stars
Here's the contract, nigga, sign away
I've been alluding myself to the fact that my chest is in limbo
My stack go up tenfold
My heart disassemble
The cracks in the building been showing despite that the mind is a temple
Intentions been sinful
The soul all but simple
The mental been growing, it don't match the pimples
The eyes of the child have been crimson, my son, please make sure that you do not be fooled by the dimples
Hold up...you hear that? They're coming
[Hook]
We the goons, we the goons, we the children of the wrath
We the goons, we the goons, we the children of the wrath
We the goons, we the goons, we the children of the wrath
Get it back, mafucker, get it back (get it back)
We the goons, we the goons, we the children of the wrath
We the goons, we the goons, we the children of the wrath
We the goons, we the goons, we the children of the wrath
Get it back, mafucker, get it back (get it back)

I'm just hoping that it's by my side
I'm just hoping that it's by my side
There at the flip of a coin
