[Intro]
Yeah
[?]
I'm a real nigga [?]
[Verse 1]
Hundred thousand was the first step
The next step was the millions
I want my name on some buildings
Spread the game to my children
Expensive pain is the feelin'
We Mafia, like Sicilians
La Costa Nostra (La Costa Nostra)
I print my name on a wanted poster
You ever shot a nigga and it wasn't over?
Went to the funeral
I just wanted closure
I signed to the gang when they wanted soldiers
Militant
Windows tint
Jails, did a stint
Innocent, plead guilty due to ignorance
Killed at a liquor storе
Tryna get a sip
Now they pouring out liquor for remеmbrance
Memories, they begin to fade (Begin to fade)
Now I feel like Michael Jordan in a pair of Js (A pair of Js)
Late night when I start to pray
Dear God, protect me from my ways
'Cause Lord, I know it's better days
'Cause since the age of 12 we was airing Ks
Since when a nigga tell and he get to stay?
How a nigga make his bed and he ain't get to lay? (Get to lay)
What happened to the code?
What happened to the pride?
Seen so much death that I forget to cry (To cry)
And you can live a lie
You only get two choices, nigga, live or die
[Chorus]
This a letter to the block (To the block)
How I made it to the top? (Ayy)
This a letter to the block
How I make it out them shots? (Yeah)
This a letter to the block
Tryna take me out my spot
This a letter to the block (Yeah)
How I do this without Nocc?
This a letter to the block (Letter)
I swear this shit will never stop (Ayy)
This a letter to the block
This a letter to the block
[Verse 2]
This a letter to the...
To them young niggas
This a letter to my always keep a gun niggas
This a letter to my never one-on-one niggas
I was raised one fight, we gotta jump niggas (Look)
Ayy, this a letter to my squad though
How a nigga still breathing?
Only God knows
We was fuckin' up the streets like potholes
We was kids, I started shooting with my eyes closed
Eyes open, I can see the snakes
Gotta balance out the love
Sometimes you need the hate
Free Bnby Wood
My nigga need a date
Doggy, Smash and Drive-N, nigga
Free greats
How I make it out them shots?
How I make it without Nocc?
Trigger finger intchin'
I'm allergic to the Glock
The first 100,000, I was shocked (Shocked)
Man, I swear this shit will never stop
This a letter to the block
[Chorus]
This a letter to the block (To the block)
How I made it to the top? (Ayy)
This a letter to the block
How I make it out them shots? (Yeah)
This a letter to the block
Tryna take me out my spot
This a letter to the block (To the block)
How I do this without Nocc?
This a letter to the block (Letter)
I swear this shit will never stop (Ayy)
This a letter to the block
This a letter to the...
[Verse 3]
It's a letter to the block
From my block to ya block
I know it's a lot young niggas around the world
That's prolly gon' make the same mistakes I made
[?] My goal is to prevent that tho, you know what I am sayin'?
I gotta a lot of niggas [that I've lost?]
Jail to the death, ya know what am sayin'?
That's why I start going so hard this music shit
With no real reasons to really smile where I come from, you know?
A lot of struggle, a lot of pain
I give my niggas hope, ya know what am sayin'?
When they say "Me win", they feel like we winnin'
That's 'cause we is you know?
We're gonna make it out this motherfucking struggle
Ya I mean, it's just a letter to the block, tho
Ya I am sayin, when I say Nocc
[I am talkin'?] about my homeboy Nocc
I'll make it without him
I didn't, even right here with me the whole time, you feel me?
All my niggas wavin'
Every nigga that has a woman is still around
All my niggas that's in the ground
All my niggas in a cell
Like we still right here, we still pushin'
Lot of niggas would have gave up
But not ain't no quitting
That shit for lose
We ain't finna do no losing
Man we winning, forever winning
If I was shining everything on forever be Mafia [?]
Loyalty, never forget that
Every nigga at this table eating
And we fed real good too
[?] The bosses man
That's why I said letter to the block (To the block)
'Cause I know it's a block out there
Right now, man, that's feeling like giving up
But they gotta know
This shit, I'll never stop (Never stop)
