[Chorus: 7xvethegenius]
If I should die as I'm awake, cause I was sleep
I pray they take what's in my safe, and know the key
In all to give to my hood, let's call it peace
Tell them all they can be anything
(Could be anything)
[Verse 1: 7xvethegenius]
Life full of disappointment, what happened to that anointed
Holy water, sip on this wine while he rub in ointments
On me in the fortress that comes from dangerous choices
Killas when we speak from the mind, they caged voices
One ain't gonna make it, thе other is in my palm
Learn to cherish all that could pеrish, it goes fast
Guarantee my children inherit some old bags
Devil every turn, he be trying to see if I listen
Word to God not even at odds I show no interest
Fucking on your problems like they haven't flown out
Up until we figure ourselves out, a new route
Got tell all the ghettos be mindful of their approach
They wait for you to hang yourself off a little rope
Looking for a checkmate, but never know your death date
Fore I'm out of here I need a chef plate
Look I know a minister who used to be a prostitute
So yes it's gonna constitute for guessing what an opp will do
Respectfully I'll pop at you, regretfully a cop will too
So nine out of eleven times I try to move responsible
[Chorus: 7xvethegenius]
If I should die as I'm awake, 'cause I was sleep
I pray they take what's in my safe, and know the key
In all to give to my hood, let's call it peace
Tell 'em all they could be anything, then let them free
They call survivors criminals, now go pay their bonds
Sure prison was the minimum, they can't lock our minds
So if I should die as I'm awake, 'cause I was sleep
I pray the lord my soul to take, my soul to keep
[Verse 2: Heem]
Ye though I walk through the valley of death
I wear my heart on my sleeve and this tech on my chest
(It's all I got nigga)
I read the 23rd psalms then I pray for the best
Hoping God call my name when the day I lay to rest
I used to live like a devil, committed sins for the devil
Gotta kill you if I tell you the dirt I did for the devil
Know the secrets get deep, you gotta dig with a shovel
Trying to wash it all away and he got me seeing doubles
(Fucked up)
I'm a product of the streets, I done seen a plenty troubles
Bleeding on the back streets, in the concrete jungles
Nigga die from all the shots, but it started with a scuffle
I'm a shadow of my pops, all I wanted was the hustle
Selling fifties and twenties, water whipping the [?]
It's me, Ricky, and Benny putting on for the city
Niggas be talking silly, know they not fucking with me
Critics be kinda iffy, they tweeting and fuck all that though
[Chorus: 7xvethegenius]
If I should die as I'm awake, 'cause I was sleep
I pray they take what's in my safe, and know the key
In all to give to my hood, let's call it peace
Tell 'em all they could be anything, then let them free
They call survivors criminals, now go pay their bonds
Sure prison was the minimum, they can't lock our minds
So if I should die as I'm awake, 'cause I was sleep
I pray the lord my soul to take, my soul to keep
