The Homies Wanna Know

(JabariOnTheBeat)

Painkillers hardly help, but I'ma still pop
No regards for the children, that nigga still shot
I'm feared in physical form, that's why I feel Pac
How we let 'em kill Nipsey, though? I'm still shocked
That nigga showed me so much love I couldn't hold the tears
Inspired by the marathon he ran all these years
Granny left a voicemail I'll never delete
She say she proud, least I know she forever at peace
Lookin' out for Zoe kids, whatever they need
I treat 'em like my own kids since brody deceased
Double-digit the yeek, free lil' pimpin' Talik
If you ever circle a face, you're a witness to me
Cold fifty gets you sizzled, this a game of keeps
She let her youngin slip away and then she blame the streets
Lured in by the chicken that the game offered
The judge talkin' twenty plus when she made offers (yeah)

Ayy, what you risk, lil' nigga? (What you risk, lil' nigga?)
Who you body, who you strip, lil' nigga?
Talk to me, though (talk to me, though)
What type of prison time you did, lil' nigga? (Uh-huh)
Where you from? Who jumped you in, lil' nigga?
The homies wanna know (the homies wanna know), yeah
Ayy, what you risk, lil' nigga?
Who you body, who you strip, lil' nigga?
Talk to me, though (talk to me, though)
What type of prison time you did, lil' nigga? (Uh-huh)
Where you from? Who jumped you in, lil' nigga?
The homies wanna know (the homies wanna know)

Dear ma, I shoulda listened, I was trippin'
I never thought that a killa convert to witness
I never thought that this money'll burn bridges
I never thought that my niggas would turn distants
Self-made when you did it with no assistance
Granny used to tell me, "You got it, baby, you gifted"
Watch pops rock up a birdie inside the kitchen
Watch unc' bust down a birdie on dinner dishes
'Member when I told you I love you, I really meant it
Fuckin' with the suckas and usin' my love against me
Sacrifice my life and my freedom when it was risky
Your loyalty is questionable, I don't know if you with me
I don't know if you got me like I got you
Like you don't recall what happened after what's-his-name popped you
Ain't tryna do that time 'cause he innocent, but he got to
Aggressive panhandlin' textin' and I'ma block you
I swear, I only question you, gangsta, because it not you (yeah)

Ayy, what you risk, lil' nigga? (What you risk, lil' nigga?)
Who you body, who you strip, lil' nigga?
Talk to me, though (talk to me, though)
What type of prison time you did, lil' nigga? (Uh-huh)
Where you from? Who jumped you in, lil' nigga?
The homies wanna know (the homies wanna know), yeah
Ayy, what you risk, lil' nigga?
Who you body, who you strip, lil' nigga?
Talk to me, though (talk to me, though)
What type of prison time you did, lil' nigga? (Uh-huh)
Where you from? Who jumped you in, lil' nigga?
