“Langfield” is a tribute to Benny’s murdered brother Machine Gun Black, who is painted on the artwork of the album. Over a Daringer-produced beat, Benny speaks directly to his brother and also reflects on how his death affected him and his family.
[Intro]
It’s real shit, nigga
I’m a A1 nigga, everything about me authentic
Uh, I came a long way, straight out the mud
From the bottom, I’m a real street nigga
[Verse]
Yo, sometimes a nigga feel like y’all deaf
I put my life in these songs and still feel like y’all slept
Every word I spoke in the booth, y’all know it’s the truth
It’s Benny, I’m firm as a soldier boots, spill my pain all over these loops
I know you resting, but you left me, bruh, your mom dukes especially hurt
This the shit that you try to protect us from
Having thoughts of you kept me up
I used to have dreams that the niggas that got at you would tried to wet me up
Uh, I never been the same since my brother died
On the prison phone, through the static, heard my mother cry
And I gotta call her back ‘cause people on the other line
Niggas came from busting nines and we don’t know from which side
Wait, take a minute, imagine that
When your whole crew strapped and y'all don’t know who to clap
Uh, niggas shook ‘cause they know how we gon’ react
So when we call to see what’s popping, they ain't answering they jacks
Was a orphan, streets adopted me, but they gave me back
Was a ‘80s baby, momma raised me, she was slanging crack
Foggy memories, okay, I’m thinking, let me take you back
I remember clear as day, when I caught her shaving crack
Had a boyfriend from Detroit, they took trips, made it back
Around that time, we used to cop the newest kicks, latest hats
Times change, fast forward, she a smoker, ain’t adapt
To the harsh ways of the game and it’s plain as that
I don’t blame her, but that’s probably why this the way I act
I just wanna stack this money, fuck these bitches, fade to black
If they ask me if I’m real, you just play ‘em that
When I die, just load up all my classics, play 'em back
Haters still in denial but the streets say I’m next
One of the hardest niggas out, at least let’s agree on that
We put the G in GFxR, Con, me, and West and diesel
Fuck being humble ‘cause we the best, uh
