panthadogg - he was the top boy lyrics

he was the top boy lyrics
verse 1:
look
he was the top boy, feared on all blocks boy
gave it all he got boy, calling all the shots boy
so many demons inside him, he’d be d+mned if he’d fail
impossible to read, his body language was braille
the soldier we never hesitated to take orders from
educating the young’uns on the corner who once never saw a gun
sort of young, but wise beyond his birth years
others came, others went, he was the first here
i remember when the police arrested him and questioned him
soon as i heard, i was straight there as his next of kin
the next best thing we had to an uncle, brother and father
when it came to discipline he always hit faster and harder
shattered a man’s ligamentum patella and beat his brains out
spreaded like nutella for the better so we’d never go the same route
never let nothing slide, no second chances at reality
his focus and mentality was family and salary
one day he let his guard down and they beheaded the snake
a cold, harsh truth as a crew we were never ready to face
the feds raided his house and hey ho, they found him
a tip off from the opposing side seeking to climb the mountain
they dragged him down and now he’s set for life imprisonment
for murder, armed robbery, drug dealing and embezzlement
and no one knows why, no one knows how
but when i find out, sh+t’s gonna go down
the whole town’s gonna hear it from the messenger
you don’t overthrow the f+cking sheriff if you know what’s best for ya
this means war, for days, weeks, months, centuries
cause ice cold revenge is the bittersweetest aperitif
chorus:
take some time and admire the views of the place we live
where we fight, where we defend our turf and played as kids
we were born in the dark by the time morning had broken
ignored the law and broke the jaw of any poor man who spoken too much
survival of the sickest, that’s real sh+t
something in the air is coming; a change, i feel it

bridge:
please believe i never meant to let you down
i still can’t believe that you’re not around
i promise that i’ll always do what’s right by your name
by carrying on your legacy through the pain

verse 2:
i visited my bro inside on the outside looking in
safer there than outlined on the sidewalk in white chalk
i asked “has everything we built been eradicated?”
he said “no, but the throne can’t be abducated”
then he said “you’re now the top boy, feared on all blocks boy
so give it all you got boy, and call all the shots boy”
i made my first stack of cream at 16
turned my world over like i was staring through richard hammond’s windscreen
and i’ll be remembered as the greatest of all time
k!lling it from beyond the grave than most brothers do in their prime
until you’ve stepped in my shoes, you might say that’s a huge claim
i got so hungry to the point i became the food chain
a wise man told me don’t explain my errors
when you’ve been so hungry to the point you have night terrors
i think of my poor mum, my grandmum, my baby mums
although they don’t know the full extent, they’re the reason i’m making funds
i ended that war with a bullet to a brain
for the sake of my family and friends, i’d do it all again
murder is wrong and it’s crime i admit i don’t like to commit
but becomes absolutely necessary when faced with adversaries
i dare anyone step to me with weaponry
and they’ll be in a&e daily
and if they next cross me, they’ll have a set of false t++th
you disrespect me, you disrespect my residency
this gangstery lifestyle is angsty and quite wild
and sometimes it’s difficult to end the day with a bright smile
my lifespan means nothing if the quality of it’s p+ss poor
the things i’ve seen and done, a genie probably wouldn’t wish for
but in this fleeting existence
you won’t survive without making a mark and meeting resistance
but if the outcome is financial security
all you motherf+ckers can fade away into substantial obscurity
posh cars, expensive clothes, earning 7 grand a minute
i’ve come a long f+cking way and i won’t let anyone get in it
cause i’m tired of being a nice guy trying to give
deep down inside, i’m dying to live
chorus:
take some time and admire the views of the place we live
where we fight, defend our turf and played as kids
we were born in the dark by the time morning had broken
ignored the law and broke the jaw of any poor man who spoken too much
survival of the fittest, that’s real sh+t
something in the air is coming, a change, i feel it

outro:
please believe i never meant to let you down
i still can’t believe that you’re not around
i promise that i’ll always do what’s right by your name
by carrying on your legacy through the pain
mama please bare with me, cause i’ll be gone for a while
don’t cry when you think of me, look back with a smile
but just don’t go outside
cause it’s not safe at night
