shakyh hanif & michaelangelo - poor mans bread lyrics

[intro]
huh
look

[verse 1: shaykh hanif]
i’d give my life for this
can’t lie, always figured i’d be doin’ life for this
persue the money, clouded my judgement, lost my mind a bit
foreign cars and designer fits was a minor fix
i wasn’t broke, i was broken
sold freedom in a ziplock
traffic and drought, felt like gridlock
goin’ nowhere fast
wrong side of the tracks
junkies on display, a long line of tracks from where they vein collapse
filled with rage at a tender age
acted in a play where poverty took center stage; what a plot twist
we was all poor but it was all good
i remember i used to rip mercedes emblems of car hoods
now i got benz money off raw goods
on and off books, my reflection in the mirror, i had to take a
hard look

[interlude]
i had to look at myself like, “d+mn, look at you”
“look at what you becomin'”
[verse 2]
i could of blew trial
thank god for second chances, i would of felt like b00bie miles
vein blew out his knee like, “what i’m gon’ do now?”
i was right for war
chance of survival was a roll of a dice for sure
when dred got k!lled, that’s when i realised life was short
and i just gave ’em the 4 pound the night before

[interlude 2]
what’s crazy ’bout that
streets was sayin’ me and my n+ggas the ones that k!lled him
that sh+t had me f+cked up

[verse 3]
them short stories turn to tall tales
and i heard your war stories, they was all fales
my first bid they hit me with a [?]
type of time to turn a atheist into a believer
but wait, it gets deeper
i’m pourin’ out natural lights, for my n+ggas that passed
and the ones doin’ natural life
“keep the faith”, a wise man once said
’cause when you have nothin’, hope is the poor man’s bread
