[Intro]
Don't you know I got a story to tell
Don't you know I got a story to tell
Where you from, where you from
Don't you know I got a story to tell
Don't you know I got a story to tell
Is it that side, that side
Is it that side, that side
[Verse]
Pulled up on the homie he told me to pop the trunk
Luckily this time I was married to lady luck
Had a bag and a zig-zag burning amongst the elements
Said he had a story, I'm hoping he don't embellish it
What's inside the bag?
He told me that's irrelevant
Closed casket, keep driving, I put a nail in it
Tortoise be the hare already I'm just [?]
And by association I'm hoping to dodge a felony
Stepping on the gas thinking will it last
Good die young and I'm one of the first in class
Life's so out of pocket I'm running not trying to pass
What's inside my car got me driving slower than fast
In the rap game, plan is to maintain and outlast
Correlate to a lot of things
Brain is rather different you should check it with labotomists
Say they want change, don't know nothing about economy
Calculate the game brody
Told me make a right, switch lanes homie
Thoughts racing, straight faced like what's next
If I had enough heart I'd get it all off my chest
If I'm not living right give me the strength to turn left
Destination in sight, he told me to sit tight
Aight
I mean I'm loyal what the fuck am I 'sposed to do
Smash off, lift off in the middle of making moves
Lose my hood pass before I'm making the audible
We the best like my son was Asahd
All the fear and self doubt I pushed right to the side
My partner opened up the door and hopped back in the ride
I ain't ask too many questions I got one when its time
If the math right can I get a piece of the pie
Since you know it ain't no fun if you can't share with the tribe
When God made me took a second to cry
Tears of joy homie all I see is red and blue lights
Pull over
Now I see the devil in sight
Get out the car and move slow when you rise
I ain't really tripping I'm just laughing inside
Cause all we really had was our blood and our pride
And that's it homie
Eventually they let us go
That's slick homie
More slick and too quick that's legit homie
On your move (?) the strength homie
