Told 'em "Sit the f*ck down!" They ain't listen though Used to hit the liquor store for a fifth and go Back to the crib and smoke Blacks while we spittin' flows Me and Will would go half on some Michelob Split a six pack, chit chat about business goals Had big plans but our paths split on different roads This ain't a diss track, no subliminals But I look back and just laugh at the shit you wrote Too nice to say it's wack or it isn't dope Guess that's the price you pay to deliver hope No need to fix it if it isn't broke I don't even miss it or wish that you were still my bro None these clowns loyal, kissin' ass just to get some doe Crown Royal in the glass, I would sip it slow Always neat, no rocks, never mixed with Coke Always weed, no rocks, never did the coke Different strokes, I've been told I'm a misanthrope 'Cause they cherry pick the quotes that the kid has spoke Used to keep a Swisher rolled when we hit the road Now it means somethin' different if you get the smoke Everything that glitters really isn't gold Grabbed the bull by the horns and I slit his throat Maestro set me up for the pick and roll And I took it to the hole with the wrist control I've been known to mix the flow with some poignancy I'm just tryin' to stay afloat, no buoyancy Most the people that I've known disappointed me I don't know why my foes wanna toy with me I'm from the era of Kangols and shell toes My bro used to slang dope, it was well known Hell no, we ain't tell, f*ck 12 though Only way we came close is if hell froze Have you ever been high but you felt low? Reminiscing on the times we would tell jokes We used to stick together like some velcro He was like 17, I was 12 though Never thought he'd switch lanes, but he's bitch made Used to pack the switchblade back in the sixth grade High school, me and JIN droppin' mixtapes And we used every gig of the disc space Taught myself how to ride a bike And I taught myself how to write a rhyme How to stay on beat and how to count bars Never really had a sound till we found ours Had that sloppy flow, I thought it was dope Switched it to Ras Kass from that Prodigy flow Used to rap fast, now it's probably slow Had to try it all if I wanted to grow You don't wanna provoke me, don't want any smoke You don't wanna approach, have the squad at ya throat This is ominous prose meant to caution my foes Flip it all into gold, the Philosopher's Stone Never really had friends in my whole life No one to depend on in go time They turn to enemies and to lowlifes They lie and deceive, I don't know why We didn't have heat on them cold nights Nothin' to eat and no lights Broke tryin' to survive a slow grind An eye for an eye leaves us both blind Listen, I'm just reminiscing Friend or foe, it's hard to tell the difference You never know when you gon' catch 'em slippin' They only help if it benefits 'em Note to self, they been pennin' fiction Alone in my cell in this mental prison I know this hell is self-inflicted I'm tryin' my best to pretend it isn't You won't see the revolution on the television This the sickest evolution that you've ever witnessed I tried to tell 'em but they never listen This is how you turn men to villains This is how you turn men to villains
