Sandcastles

[Verse]
Each bar straight up out of that crack era
Every line gets the sniff of the straw
I'm strapped up but I still could put a fist to your jaw
They took my pops to jail [?] listen to God
I held a grudge so big it couldn't fit in my palms
It's deep when I know the shit I spit in this songs
More impactful on the kids than the scratching from songs
My nigga said the first time he read a scripture from songs
Was from a tattoo his pops had stitched on his arm
Every time I'm spitting, I speak a page in my life (Facts)
It's gon' take more than a shriek just to read a page in my mind
They tell us crime pays but keep on changing the price
Them diamonds dancing 'cause niggas was Lisa Ray with the white
Grass cut, so it's easy to see a snake in my side
Pistols cocking, my niggas don't squeeze and aim at the sky
These bars sharp as steel, I keep a blade when I write
And I've been through some shit, you can see the pain in my eyes
Ran into my brother last week
And we had a chat about stock markets and investing
That's where the cash is at
Two college degrees in the business but I ain't have to [?]
Niggas sell they soul, trade they kofis for a MAGA hat
True money hungry, so I had to starve it
I'm still young with a grown man's wisdom to teach a class at Harvard
Got it on my own 'cause we ain't had our fathers
Middle of a desert, I'll finesse a nigga out his glass of water, nigga
