(verse1)
it really don’t take much to get your attention
but i get it your young, you really ain’t stressing on finding the one
but you worry about finding somebody so you end up settling for anyone
baby you know i’m not just anybody, the lord of the city, the king of the jungle, need i remind you its
king legion from the east side throwing peace signs, gang signs too
spreading love out to east side so i can be the guy we unify through
where the cash at is where you find us, if you come wrong we will find you
can’t eat with us, can’t chief with us, as a matter of fact who invited you
no compet-tion in sight, my n-ggas gone ride and the soldiers gone fight
and i’m on a mission to get it so there’s gone be times that your lonely at night
but you ain’t help me build the house, why should i let you sleep in it
id rather starve and remain real then to let these false prophets ?
can’t create when i’m sobered up so i’m sipping lean cus’ i need a vision
need motivation, need inspiration, if you know me well then you seen the difference
inspired by a fast life while i’m walking streets that are crime ridden
straight facts not a lie in them this is non fiction
n-ggas thought that a lil pain was gonna stop me from going back in
you ain’t know that i was shooting free throws tryna work on my back spin
now i’m taking more shots then ever like rashard lewis from behind the line
still scoring like mj when its crunch time right at his prime
please don’t get out of line, ill have sh-t looking like columbine
blunt looking like a middle finger, drink looking like calamine
so profound with the nouns and the verbs, the word play is what grasps my mind
ill-strating my story lines, i sn-tch hearts like valentines
please don’t play with the force cus’ its real souls in the balance man
n-ggas talking reckless, please don’t make me make a weapon out my talents man
i been saying that the last thing we need out here is more violence man
you ain’t even got to thank me girl, ill do anything to see you smile again

(hook)
riding round windows down music loud we don’t give a f-ck
its been a long journey but its all worth it n-gga we ain’t giving up
a lot of yah been in it too long and you need to give it up
you only get one chance at life you need to live it up

(verse2)
livin’ in poverty should probably keep a weapon on me
because a lot of these hating n-ggas checking for me
they flipping packs, i’m spitting raps, and they respect me for it
giving hope to ? the subject of my ghetto story
ain’t no hesitation, gotta make it, go and get it, i ain’t faking, this the life i chose to live, i can’t fake it
present day perspective sh-t is hectic i can’t take it
came from nothing had to make a way, yah just make it up
just know that sh-ts real from up top to swissvale
n-ggas taking shots cus’ they can’t out-box me like sent mail
they can’t tell what emotions i’m feeling because my face is always stoic ain’t no way they can seal it
because inside i struggle trying not to break down from the pressure
my world is on my shoulders i’m tryna keep it together, with the family i don’t talk to, friends i rarely connect with, ill drop the mic in a second and all yah n-ggas is left with
is the voice recordings of a fallen angel
you made a god of money, tell me if them dollars save you
yah so ungrateful, don’t even walk the road i paved you
they say promise when you make it don’t ever forget what made you
they say promise when you make it don’t ever forget what made you
