devain indigo - these days lyrics
[devain indigo]
ninety-two and ninety one is where this story begun
i ain’t have much, just my brother, stuck together as one
i was the bad one you was good, think i corrupted you some
product of lower income we was raised in a slum
video games and balling on the weekend
feel like i’m drowning you saved me from the deep end
you kept my secrets on you i used to depend
crime rate in philly forcing us to be men
compet-tive by heritage
such a loose cannon think i need me a sedative
i never was hesitant to beat you repet-tive
i was a raging storm but was losing my sediment
when they kicked my outta school had my momma crying
i’m tryna change myself for you, believe me mom i’m trying
she had to move us off block the way them kids was dying
heat in the city was intensifying
and i seen
such bravado
n-ggas loading up them hollows
drinking bottles till they hollow
taking heads like sleepy hollow
sweeping streets like the apollo
i seen rifles on the bible
n-ggas dying no revival
see a rival take his vitals
i had to leave but my brother stayed
without my brother i was feeling strange
came back, then my brother changed
because i left, felt i was to blame
it got me seeing red
destructive thoughts going through my head
ain’t got no locks but i’m feeling dread
ain’t got no fear in me not a thread
the way we living, probably end up dead
tote heavy metal i ain’t talking zed
ain’t talking poison when i talkin lead
gold plated medal and it’s for aiming that metal
and aiming straight at your melanin, i ain’t joking or meddling
catch me kicking or peddling
momma told me no settling
build you up to start leveling
dig this sh-t and get shoveling
i had to get with the program
swinging swords like i’m conan
if we beefing then we go h.a.m
they almost hit me, but the gun jammed
a dance with death to this slow jam
oh, how i wish we could turn back the clocks
we went from playing with blocks to playing with glocks
we went from tryna be cops to running from cops
instead of checking your stocks you checking your socks
the black sheep of the family
feel like a th-rn in the family tree
thinking back it was you and me
it made them change how they look at me
pain in your eyes, only i can see
you chose your life, n-gga pay that fee
if not me, it’d be you i’d be
it’s been a while since our paths would meet
a cancer in the belly of the beast
my only wish is that they set you free
conflicting decisions we made as children
present resenting convictions
preventing visions of the right decisions
pretenses of these conditions
surrounded by bad intentions
defenses for my intensions
suspension to reach ascension
invention from my dimension
coping mechanism, i don’t sleep so i can’t dream
if you hear this song, i pray you truly find your peace
be a good father, be supportive with your niece
lord, if you’re hearing this, set my brother free!
