Sidewalks

[Verse 1]
Been more than what you've been 'ware of, left DNA all the places I've been
My spot isn't rented, your favorite rappers don't grace the top ten
Dangerous the way my mind spinnin', give opposition chop limbs
Not only did niggas go clone me, my alter ego got twins
You come to my town, see spooky signs, the license plates say, "Clock in"
I married the weed, cups came with no prenup, time to go re-up, crop's in
I wonder where all my opps been, still pack a venue, pop in
I'm puttin' the work to last longer, hope my lil girl'll drop in
This new package landеd, blue magic branded, it hasn't planted
Back to scramblin', clеar it the fuck out, 'cause Banks is a accurate cannon
My tattooed hands laid the bricks that build me a statue standin'
Tall as ever, ball in all weather, baskets through famine, nigga
You thinkin' of trainin'? I could learn you 'bout something
Hope a school protect your neck, cassette, CD and vinyl gets broke in two
Hannibal anger, still, the G.O.A.T. conversation is overdue
The discussion's premature when it comes to you, Blue

[Chorus]
I have the shit go, remaining a keeper to my brother
Keep your head on a swivel, niggas dyin' to take you under
From the way it's lookin' lately some ain't gon' make it to summer
Everybody got the same chance to take it, chasin' one color, New York City motherfucker
I got the pulse by the finger, check out my speech
Avoid the wrong territory, we play for keeps
Won't be no sympathy for you, to say the least
They made the sidewalks for chillin', stay out the streets

[Verse 2]
Uh, when I go meet the big homie, mural my face every borough
I'm really the same stand-up nigga, new time, new place, different struggle
Big crucifix to outshine me, a hunnid bracelets, be humble
How dare you to reach out and touch me, 'nough arms to have a team huddle
They wonderin' my thoughts on others, well fuck you, here's my rebuttal
Your promises never been trouble, so my reaction seems subtle
My vision's back to green tunnels, get caught in traffic, leave puddles
We talkin' practice? no stumbles, cookin' up masterpiece bundles
New York, the meltin' pot, melt a opp, give yourself the shop
Play the card you were dealt, then drop product on someone else's block
You're goin' against the grain lately, you must want the help to stop
Made it back here from Hell to rock, burnin' out on the bail from cops
Four thirty, a star was born, my journey's been stuck in the dark too long
My ego's ten apartments long, need some makers to park it on
You should've invested in the stock, you've been workin' the market wrong
Killin' this shit 'til the blood in my heart is gone

[Chorus]
I have the shit go, remaining a keeper to my brother
Keep your head on a swivel, niggas dyin' to take you under
From the way it's lookin' lately some ain't gon' make it to summer
Everybody got the same chance to take it, chasin' one color, New York City motherfucker
I got the pulse by the finger, check out my speech
Avoid the wrong territory, we play for keeps
Won't be no sympathy for you, to say the least
They made the sidewalks for chillin', stay out the streets
