Raised In The Streets

[Chorus}
I thank the streets and my mama for raising me
I thank my gun and these bullets for saving me

I thank the streets and my mama for raising me
I thank my gun and these bullets for saving me

[Verse 1]
This a town, this ain't no city
Them country boys, they be with it
Play hide and shoot in the middle of the night
They'll snuff you out with the quickness
Working hard tryna get commas
Baby mama with the drama
Can't get by selling these dime bags
I'm on the block, rolling dice, trying to come up
I'm losing bad, this a set up
The devil say it's time to pay up
For all the stuff that I did in my past
It's a wonder the police ain't never showed up

[Chorus]
I thank the streets and my mama for raising me
I thank my gun and these bullets for saving me

I thank the streets and my mama for raising me
I thank my gun and these bullets for saving me

[Verse 2]
If you don't see no stray dogs it ain't the hood
If you don't see no police that mean the popo in your crew
I'm knocking over trashcans
Trying to outsmart the next man
One man's trash is another man's treasure
I'm already humble
I'm a gold-digging devil
Dropped out of college cause I'm too smart
Can't work part-time cause it's too hard
I'm just suffering til' I make it
I keep my Glock close worse case it's gone save us
I'm in love with the streets
I ain't bulletproof
Know I'll take a bullet for you
Can't afford to lose ya
Gotta watch out for the troopers

[Chorus]
I thank the streets and my mama for raising me
I thank my gun and these bullets for saving me

I thank the streets and my mama for raising me
I thank my gun and these bullets for saving me
