bam bam (uk) - bam bam - i swear (music video) | @mixtapemadness lyrics
i’ve never read it; i don’t know how
looked in the mirror, told myself, “i’m done now.”
win, lose, or make it—that’s my granddad’s lesson
“you’re not fighting to win, you’re fighting to leave an impression.”
they swear they wanna see us rise, but want us down
no comment, read the eyes, mom’s shot, she just tried
yeah, i’ve seen her cry, seen the pain inside
now we gotta ride, find a way to survive
pre+chorus
don’t disrespect my chill, don’t compromise my vibe
complicated stains, yet i’m forced to entertain
if my brothers said a word, it’s never the same
secrets we keep, locked tight in the chain
chorus
all we knew was struggle; we couldn’t see change
don’t blame us for why we couldn’t behave
we came up the same way, should’ve been mates
but the world tore us apart, now it’s too late
verse 2
bow my head, repent, forgive me for my deeds
islam took me back to when we weren’t free
prison days, pull+ups in the yard for peace
now i see the future shining bright for my g’s
the cold don’t die; no one’s exempt
i’ve seen family turn on family, no one’s content
black, white, and gray, roads full of snakes
mom prays for my safety while i’m lost in this maze
pre+chorus
searching for the light of day, trying to find a way
through the pain of early life, the cries of yesterday
i see it in my mom’s eyes, the weight she hides
still carrying the scars from all those nights
chorus
all we knew was struggle; we couldn’t see change
don’t blame us for why we couldn’t behave
we came up the same way, should’ve been mates
but the world tore us apart, now it’s too late
bridge
cold world, gets colder when your soul’s sold
i only trust my own self, live by my own code
no life, locked knife, they didn’t fight fair
young boys turned into men with gray stares
potential wasted if they pick the wrong road
savage eyes, no laws, just what survival knows
necessary sacrifice, the last samurai
tomorrow never came; we only had the night
outro
whipping white to claim what we never had
where mom cooked meals, and dad wasn’t mad
it’s a different life, black and white now mixed
no balance, just the cracks we try to fix
but we’re here, surviving the life of crime
living for the day, praying for a sign
you couldn’t understand it; this life ain’t yours
but through it all, we fight our wars
