Shout Out

[Intro]
I'd like to thank everybody for listening to this History of Violence project (Yeah)
You know what I'm sayin'
I appreciate that to the fullest you know (We are Block Symfany)
I've been a journey
Gotta shout my people out real quick though, feel me?

[Chorus 1]
Shout out to bros
To Block Symfany, that's Tboyd and Rio The Ghost
From all the teams I've seen, yo my team is realer that most
So to them I must salute, pour some Henny and make a toast

[Verse 1]
See my history is violent yet I see that silver lining
Yo I'm smiling more, trying to get past the days of me wildin'
I'm seeing better days, my family's doing okay
Man my son just got his transplant, it's healing I'm amazed
That I made it this far without losing half of my brain
Really I was on the edge of insanity, had to change up
Me and my all my hang-ups, self doubt was the main one
Thought I couldn't do it by myself until I did it
I told some niggas see you at the top, give me a minute
Now them same niggas thought I went poppers on the [?]
Must admit it, I can feel Proof smiling, making him proud
I literally get the chills when I'm looking up at the clouds
And that "walk it how I talk it" yo that mirror never lies
I'd rather be broke than rich and can't look myself in the eye
'Cause when it's all said and done you gotta chose a side
I gotta believe in a cause, why not believe in mine?

[Chorus 2]
(But first I have to get my shouts out) Shout out to bros
To Block Symfany, that's Tboyd and Rio The Ghost
From all the teams I've seen, yo my team is realer that most
So to them I must salute, pour some Henny and make a toast
To my brother Maestro and my Dertyheadz at the show
To all my people hustlin' day to day for the dough
To hip-hop junkies who's fiending out for a flow
And to my History of Violence I found peace in my soul

[Verse 2]
Thank you to the fans for believing in your mans (Fo' sho')
For those who plan to meet me, here's a greeting in advance (Whatupdoe)
I come from a city where cops beat you out your pants
Where killers will blast you then relieve you of your bands (Run that)
But see I'm what that city made, I still believe it's hope for us (I do)
It's bittersweet like a whack song with a dope chorus
I gave this game over 15 years of my life
So why do I still feel like I just started tonight
See I love this fucking music, it's from the heart when I write
I hope you feel it like every chump I caught with the right
This journey's been a tough one, a rough one but I'm surviving
Everyday is like a birthday, it's full of surprises (For real)
But I'm just happy I get to see myself vibin'
Back in love with music, can't go A Day Without A Rhyme man
Shout out to Merciless Ameer, still grinding
For helping transform this lump of coal into a diamond

[Chorus 2]
(But first I have to get my shouts out) Shout out to bros
To Block Symfany, that's Tboyd and Rio The Ghost
From all the teams I've seen, yo my team is realer that most
So to them I must salute, pour some Henny and make a toast
To my brother Maestro and my Dertyheadz at the show
To all my people hustlin' day to day for the dough
To hip-hop junkies who's fiending out for a flow
And to my History of Violence I found peace in my soul
