Verse 1:
They told me pain make you stronger
But living done make the man
Everyday is something new but i promise i got it man
Dedicated to the struggle supporting it like a fan
So the shit they say i'm on some niggas can't understand
I swear to never lay it down i'm a soldier when riding mine
?? running through my head but i swear that i'm doing fine
?? Sick and tired of time but admitted i'm ?? ??? mine
I'm just lost ?? the homie gone give me a sign
The last past years been tough
I've been holding the wheel steady even though the road rough
?? got my cousin boss sitting sackled up in cuffs
I guess the fact they took my baby brother from ain't enough
Nigga fuck
If ain't one thing then it's another
They done jumped on ?? tryna keep it undercover
I had gave my last breath when it come to my baby brother
Yeah this shit got me ready to kill me a motherfucker
?? ?? better pray that that he'd never test the wrong side
Heart told me "Keep it cool.", lord knows a nigga tried
?? ?? tell put his past to the side
Imma run up out the grip and try to leave his ?? ??
These days that i'm facing got me feeling like i'm back on my own
Gone be my pen and my pad posted up in the zone
Every thought that i have i express it ??
And put my pressure on the gas and do my best to hold on
?? ?? back up, brain won't ?? up
?? names on my t-shirt getting stacked up
Nigga i'm a G but my ?? stay racked up
Plus everybody that i love wanna act up
That nigga ?? need to stay in his place
He the reason my cousin ?? got shot in the face
He the reason my nigga Nick ended up in the prison
& He the reason that my cousin Donnie got a murder case
I'm just sitting here thinking why my life so bad
?? ?? from my cousin ?? got a nigga sad
All he want is for his son not to forget about his dad
His baby mama set him up and got him 15 ??
Real talk, and i know my brother think he sitting stress
First his gal got killed then his baby mama next
He been ?? since 92' for something he didn't do
14 flat, Hard time not a day less
And that's the code so the streets won't forget about him
I guess he proud for the shit that i done did without him
And even though his stubborn way ain't gone get up out him
I love my nigga and there ain't no way i'm here without him
And that just some of the shit that be on a nigga mind
They got my brother ?? on the inner state line
6 days, now he looking at some jail time
They keep working with them people tryna get him ?? time
I'm ?? ?? pissed off ?? down memory lane
Thinking 'bout ??, and how we used to kick it man
He was ABN, little did he know it man
Imma hold it down till i make it up to heaven man
ABN still ride for me brothers, till the death
So i know they still drive for me
Till a nigga hurt, then i know they cry for me
Hopped up on this stand take the oath and still lie for me
?? never thought they'd be my only friends
?? ?? whoppin' my ass down, will it ever end?
I got a caller by 10, i can't go through this again
?? momma just stopped to be an angel in the wind
And it just happened ?? in the zone to write this song
Collect call on the way, i gotta tell him be strong
Even if he get time he ain't gon' never be alone
I hit the come up as a kid, and imma hit it while he gone
He my bro and my nigga ?? hurt i could see in his face
And even though he lost his brother i be here to take his place
Heart running like a race so it's hard it's hard me me to breathe
I keep living out of hope so i guess it's hard to ?? on
We do this rap shit to show a nigga how i feel
Im the voice of the streets other rapper ain't real
I just watch 'em sit still till they end up with a deal
?? ?? ?? full speed like a drill
?? ??? ??? ??
It's only a few of them niggas i'm still running with
I don't fuck with niggas who love to be on that stuntin' shit
I don't wanna talk i just look at 'em like they dumb as shit
Damn!
[*Fades Out*]
It's like i'm out of breathe praying through the ?? i can bring my niggas back out of death
I ain't really tripping but damn it's like ain't nothing left
Every time i lose it's like i be disappointed myself....
