Slums

[Intro]
I wanna go
You know how it go
You know how it go
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
Same niggas been with you since y'all were like five
Like brothers, y'all really got ties
Then when it's time to slide
Ones you thought was the guys, now they ride on a whole 'nother side
Got to watch when you step out here
Niggas ain't playin' fair, you'll get left out herе
Seen a nigga get popped for a check out hеre
But more niggas done died for way less out here
Drug game fucked up, few niggas lucked up
Nah, we ain't havin' like we used to
This the type of shit that I ain't tryna get used to
A lot of y'all fakin' and flodgin', we can see right through you
I was told, "Keep your enemies close"
But the way niggas dyin', I've been tryna keep the family close
And these streets ain't safe for me, though
Send a lot of prayers out, but I wonder who pray for me, though, yeah
And mom, please stop cryin'
Said she can't keep livin' like this
Said the job that she at ain't payin' her on time
Like, damn, what's wrong with you, shorty?
Steady blowin' a nigga up early in the morning
Think a nigga out here cheatin', told you I be OT
Tryna run this shit up, but you still don't believe me, damn
Then you pushed me away, but I still ain't turn my back on you
I dropped the truth, yeah, I only drop facts on you
And I'll turn up to the motherfuckin' max for you
You sittin' here steady tellin' me, "It's all about trust"
But where I come from, that shit'll get you fucked up
Ain't got to worry 'bout nothin', you the mother of my son
I'ma make sure you shine like no other one

[Chorus]
You know how it go when you come from the slums
Got some people you'll ride for
People you'll die for
Yeah, you know you the one, yeah
And I swear I done been through some things
And I know shit'll never be the same
But my loyalty for you won't change
Nah, nah

[Verse 2]
Yeah, they took a lot of my homies' freedom
And it's been free the guys and it's still free 'em
Middle fingers to the pigs, fuck the whole system
They ain't did shit for me, who the fuck need 'em?
We lost Nuke, he gone, and we need him
All my brothers like blood, and you know how we bleedin'
Why you ain't tell me you was leavin'?
Rest in peace to my granddaddy, 'til this day, I still see him
Niggas ain't grindin', niggas ain't puttin' that time in
Niggas ain't up, they sleepin'
Thinkin' 'bout family, whole lot of shit on my mind and
Whole lot of shit, I don't need it
Yeah, got to stay focused
They wanna see you fall off and they hopin'
You got to read niggas' motive, can't let 'em catch me loafin'
Whole lot of clips we loadin'
Nah, I'll never fold, no, I ain't goin'
We wouldn't have sunny days if it ain't storm, ya dig?
This shit all about business, got to hide your feelings
Nah, you can't show 'em
And they'll never understand what a nigga really got to go through
Hell nah, they'll never know, yeah
Sometimes, you just got to let it go
Niggas ain't with you, you can feel it, man, you got to let 'em go

[Chorus]
You know how it go when you come from the slums
Got some people you'll ride for
People you'll die for
Yeah, you know you the one, yeah
And I swear I done been through some things
And I know shit'll never be the same
But my loyalty for you won't change
Nah, nah
