In the Manor

[Verse 1]
Just give me this water, I need more XP
I've been stuck in the ends tryna get this P
Chase for the cheddar's kinda caught up to me
But now I need dough for the fam; for the team
Nowadays, everyone wants a beat
But I'm only one person, let a nigga breathe
I'm from the hood, don't misconceive
Bare simple minds better watch their speech
What's life for a nigga like me?
E to the Z, I bring sound for the fiends
More time, man are out here with the trees
Plotting on the scene with T to the Z
Dem man wanna watch and pree
But they can't do me, they ain't got the keys
I'm gonna bring in all of my Gs
Yeah, all of my thugs, we're all gonna eat
I've got bruddas on blocks, on curbs
Push the green ASAP with the work
I've got bruddas on books, no nerds
Tryna get six Os to the bank for the work
All my Gs in the scene, we lurk
Tryna get a new lifestyle, so we murk
Dickheads get left in the dirt
Cause I'm moving properly, tryna get perks
I'm putting in the truth in the words
Dem man tell tales with the verbs
Man chat online, in life, they're hurt
Wanna be road but ain't gonna burst
Man ah seen dirt
Bare domestics up in the manor but I'm tryna work
More time, rice and peas with the jerk
But I'm tryna get more to eat with the words

[Chorus]
Violence, that's in the manor
Drug sales, that's in the manor
No cash, that's in the manor
We meet the needs in the flats in the manor like
Violence, that's in the manor
Drug sales, that's in the manor
No cash, that's in the manor
We meet the needs in the flats in the manor like

[Verse 2]
I don't wanna screw, but nuttin' ain't new
Deep in the manor, it's peak in the Blue
I don't wanna blow if I'm not on truth
Told myself, told my Gs, that's word to my crew
In the ends, there's Os and Qs
Shot more food just to buy more food
Eviction from the yard came soon
But I held it down, no one could've knew
The young Gs in the ends need guidance
Washed up older wanna see 'em riding
I'm in the Blue, on the block, on my ting
Man wanna chat about powers, they're biting
It's all fucked in the hood with the slicings
But man wanna big it up in their writings
Stay grinding, really enlightened
Grew in the hood so I swing like Tyson
Or man ah swing like Jackson
Man ah stay calm but I'm ready for action
Bare MCs wanna be acting
Chat about arms but I know they ain't packing
Yeah, I'm fully down for the faction
We ain't got much so we gotta make it happen
I'm in the Blue, in the manor, no lacking
Young Niger, yeah, I move like Samson
And we've gotta buss moves for the dough
Might get locked up, might get that poke
We're real, no time for the shows
But we fuck up shows, that shows what a show
Fully on job just like Jon Snow
Don't wanna be out here on a gyro
I've got sound just like Spyro
In the manor, in the hood where the killers get dough

[Chorus]
Violence, that's in the manor
Drug sales, that's in the manor
No cash, that's in the manor
We meet the needs in the flats in the manor like
Violence, that's in the manor
Drug sales, that's in the manor
No cash, that's in the manor
We meet the needs in the flats in the manor like

[Outro]
Like, I just wanna teach all, like, you know, the younger kids
The kids of my generation that, like, you know?
To move with an open mind, you feel me?
Don't succumb to nuttin'
Don't be, like, you know, don't be brought down by the system
Don't think that you can't do it cause you can
Like, you know, you're your own driver's engine and you're your own brake
So...
