Nef The Pharaoh, Loe Gino - LOE Gino's Interlude feat. LOE Gino

Текст песни

Outcomes and situations, I’m built for it\nBeing steadfast is a skill for it\nIf you fake, they’ll punch you in your grill for it\nDie over money, you can bet there’s no chill for it\nKill for it in the pursuit for what we never had\nBut having nice shit was really ever bad\nIt was my mom and my niggas, it was never dad\nLingering clouds over my head that’ll never pass\nLive fast, it ain’t a lot of opportunities\nVisions of men with the same skin shooting me\nPolluting me, diluting our history\nNo wonder why my niggas stuck up in this misery\nNo sympathy, no empathy if you switched up\nIf I’m tucked then I’m tryna get my chips up\nNo switch ups on my niggas 'cause it’s just us\nI be damned if I let this world lynch us\nNow I lay me down to sleep, my soul will never die\nPower to the people, we gon' always multiply\nI got scars on my back from the whip and the slaves got\nI picked the cotton for the clothes that I rock\nIt’s deeper than the music, I am heavily influenced\nBy my own tribe, I don’t even got ties\nStill I rise, Maya Angelou was the antidote\nHaving nightmares of my family on banana boat\nThey would’ve tried to swim but you know niggas can’t float\nDonald is the president and still I can’t cope\nMama be telling me son I see ghosts\nCops shot another nigga at the liquor store\nWill I be another face on the milk carton?\nIt’s kinda hard for me to tell when I’m a fucking moving target\nHit the panic on the key, I can’t remember where I parked it\nWhen I go out, hope they sell my organs on the black market\nA victim of struggle, I see the beauty in it\nYour skin is a burden, they label you a menace\nYou can put in the work, achieving every limit\nIn the end they’ll label you another nigga\nToo dependent on basketballs and rap books\nWhen that fail look how glamorous the trap look\nI hold you down, if you get pissed I got you fat books\nI still wonder where we’d be if we had books\nSad looks, these cops crooks an institution\nIt’s a problem with the youth, I’m seeing no solution\nYoung niggas in the city taught to act stupid\nYou think we did it to ourselves then you fucking foolish\nCops shooting and I hope I’m not next up\nMy niggas walk to the store, they gotta vest up\nMy niggas out past ten and they check us\nFive cars for one nigga when they sweat us\nFed up, but we take it in stride\nWe gotta learn how to live and not just staying alive\nWhen the income come then we splitting the pie\nYou not woke then you living a lie, nigga
