phora - kid on the block lyrics

ayo, i used to wanna be the toughest kid on the block
till i found out the toughest kid always gets shot
i used to wanna make a mill pushin that rock
till i found out the big timers always got caught
i used to wanna be the og tellin a tale
til i found out they only up dead or in jail
i was lost and confused searchin for somebody to be
till i realized that person i was searchin for was me

look, as of right now i’m writing rhymes in this notebook
scheming on making ways to make a mil, without giving my soul up
& split it with the cats that had nothing but love to show us
in hopes that i never have to watch my n-gg- bag that c-ke up
just to make a buck to put some food in his belly
i ain’t worried about the rumors or the bullsh-t they tell me
cause me & my n-gg-s, yeah we tryna eat
we tryna get that, never sleep & never sit back
talk is cheap so quit the chit chat
if you ain’t got the flow you gotta go
if you & i suppose, you’re gonna need a thousand up front for me to rock a show n-gg-
tellin’ you i’m bout my busy
i’m learnin’ to forgive all the dirt that everyones did me
simply cause i’m just tryna learn to love before they kill me
i don’t do this for myself, this for everyone that’s with me
i just wanna be remembered when my time is up
not as a g, not as a thug, cause homie i ain’t tough
just remember me for everything i tried to tell you
cause when i’m gone it’ll make sense but i don’t wanna fail you
so i try my best to try & stay alive
but it’s hard when the cats that wanna take your life know where your family resides
mama tells me stay inside, but i fear no man but god
so i’m out every day & night
i show up in my enemy’s city, tasting my faith
hoping i don’t lose my life so i bow my head & i pray
cause if my time comes then it was meant to come
but when everything said & done
all i ask of you is don’t forget the love

i used to wanna be the toughest kid on the block
till i found out the toughest kid always gets shot
i used to wanna make a mill pushin that rock
till i found out the big timers always got caught
i used to wanna be the og tellin a tale
til i found out they only up dead or in jail
i was lost and confused searchin for somebody to be
till i realized that person i was searchin for was me
