Neighborhood Watch

(Verse 1)

They’re peaking out their blinds wait for the lies they can manipulate in their minds
They don’t hide they’re right there in plain sight you better go and get yourself right
Many eyes and ears are trying to chase clout
Too busy judging while they’re trying to mask their doubt

(Chorus)

Stay up, they praying wishing waiting for you just to slip up
We got neighbors, they sitting plotting watching what they can come take from us

(Verse 2)

Opinions on the rise
Hear them criticize
Hear them speak with no credentials
Why be so resentful
And I ain’t got the time to
Be worried bout what you doing
And with who where to
So don’t come asking me bout shit
Don’t come asking me about shit

(Chorus)

Stay up, they praying wishing waiting for you just to slip up
We got neighbors, they sitting plotting watching what they can come take from us

(Verse 3)

Too many people in my pockets
Too many wonder what I got
Too many wonder why I do it
Too many tell me I should stop
Too many fake smiles around me
Too many knives are being sharped
Too many questions in the air
Just so they can hear themselves talk
They wonder
Is he fucking him
Or is he fucking her
You don’t share it on the gram
So how are we supposed to know
I refuse to let them in they keep knocking at my door
I ain’t letting no one take what I worked hard my whole life for
While you chit chat
I’m a sit back
Pay you mind I don’t think so
Let my chips stack
While you wish that you knew the tea the info
You swift with tricks from the intro
You implement a new Jim Crow
Ain’t no lifting ain’t no glow
It’s nothing but crabs in barrels
Respect my space n***a
I don’t play bout my energies
Get out my face n***a
My vibe my mood I keep at ease
Don’t run up on me n***a
I’m not the one the two or 3
Keep it on ice n***a
Just live you life n***a
Life n***a

(Chorus)

Stay up, they praying wishing waiting for you just to slip up
Don’t be too foolish
We got neighbors, they sitting plotting watching what they can come take from us
They ain’t worried bout giving

(Verse 4)

So keep your tunnel vision no side eye’s now
That neighborhood watch got alarms now
Ain’t no white picket fences ain’t no lawns now
They clicking and they scrolling lurking hard now
Wait for what they can hate up on now
They speak on your fails your downfalls now
They don’t want you to get ahead now
But I ain’t worried bout nothing like I said now
