Behind Barz Take 3
The hood that changed me from a young child
I'm from a place where these
Little youths run wild
Bust case, praying for my brothers on trial
It feels good to see my mum smile
I put my mother through so much
I'm still on the roads but
I'm older and grown up
I'm tired of pushin' work in ends
I'm tryin' stack enough dough so you
Never need to work again
I had to get out of the hood first
When you doin' well people
Comin' out the woodwork
I don't want this life on my unborns
Understand that i just wanna see my granddad
It's been a minute since I
Reasoned with my auntie
My lifes been a madness
Mum told me "Keep calm please"
I was glad my little brother finished uni
I told him that you drown when
You're out swimming too deep
These streets ain't for you just let me do me
And licking out these packs ain't cool G
People wanna be like me, rate what I'm doing
But I'm trapped in the trap
I can't escape what I'm doing
If I could go back I'd
Probably change what I'm doing
Cause I love getting money but
I hate what I'm doing
All I wanna focus on is making this music
Creating a nuisance
I'm a big problem, been laced in Medusas
From a place full of poverty
A place full of shooters
A lot of people don't make it out
So wherever that cake at I need a slice
Forget a bait slag, I need a wife
I still need paper so I need to grind
Don't know what the future holds
We'll see in time i got to keep on spitting
And keep my dream alive
People getting sentenced more years
They been alive
Lot of brothers in jail, it's unfortunate
No loose falling, I can't afford to slip
Certain man will rise up machines
Still talk to pigs
You dirty informing snitch
It's a dirty game, lot of dirt and caine
Is it worth the risk? Is it worth the pain?
I ain't workin' like a slave
For a worthless wage
But all this dirty money make a person change
I've been in these streets lonely
Me and my cheap phone G
I need sales, I don't need homies
Been through a lot of shit
Real hood politics
When everything's negative it's hard
To stay positive
I'm still having visions of a clean road
But where I'm from they leave
You dripping for a kilo
So you better keep your business on a d-low
And don't keep your kitty where you sleep bro
I'm a product of sin tryna
To chase a clean living
Tryin' to ball like a king
So I keep this queen flippin'
I've been going ham so the streets listen
Truth I've been spitting
I'm exactly what the scenes missing
Key or two got me back with my P's and Q's
I'm fully on it
I ain't rolling with no idiot youths
In the hood things don't change
But the people do
So when the wolves are hungry they
Go and scheme for food
I just put my pain on the beat
Coz when it's sunny outside it's
All rained in the street
Gettin' money outside
I got caine in my cheeks i'm a decade deep
You was in the game for a week
Shit's foul in the jungle I'm comin' from
I've been spittin' that realness
I don't know about these other dons
I can't listen to their funny songs
I've been out here for years
It's only right my moneys long
