It’s the heart of me
I gotta keep it real
Yea
You be lying in yo verses
We can tell
Yea
All I ask for
Was respect and my dignity
Yea yea
Now look at what they giving me
It’s the heart of me
I gotta keep it real
Yea
You be lying in yo verses
We can tell
Yea
All I ask for
Was respect and my dignity
Yea yea
Now look at what they giving me
No days off
With a mosaic law
Gotta perform
My grace ain’t bought
Couldn’t pay that cost
So I call up my cocaine boss
But he front that key
So my debt gone grow
Seven feet tall
Til it stand like shaq
And it dunk on me
Ironically they see me
As child here with no guardian
They violate my dignity
My patnas can’t ride with me
Ain’t got time to catch no ticket
Young black man from Atlanta
Cops just love to get in my business
I was just a kid in the maze
I was just a kid in the cage
Huh
I was just a kid with a fade
Huh
I was just a kid in the church doing church
I was with the kids on stage
Huh
Everything that I thought that I did
That was right
Really right
But it’s wrong in the context
I was steady living life as a contest
Til I finally took His life into context
Hold up let me get it back
I’m back up in my bag
In my duffle
I became self employed
And start working all these doubles
Got the hustle from the struggle
Scuffles I had a couple
Did it all from the muscle
They in trouble
And we used to cruise the city
In them crown vics
Young black and successful
Was looking out for township
Hoping they don’t pull me over
Even though I’m all legit
I can’t be another statistic
I got too much to risk
RIP to nip
This my victory lap
It’s like an Xray of my spine
How they picture me back
Look I’m physically tapped in
I came from the back end
And now I’m what’s happening
Ya’ll cappin
I’m captain
Whoo
In my city
They still call me chief
In them Chester streets
Chief
They got that Aretha Franklin respect for me
And plus Chester is a part of me
And art is all of me
Music pumping through my blood
I put art in artery
Pardon me
We all that
So fall back
Autumn leaves
If it aint about my calling
Tell me why you calling me
I aint got no time for chit chat
I’m too driven
Whiplash
New drive
Temp tags
This that
Get back
It’s the heart of me
I gotta keep it real
Yea
You be lying in yo verses
We can tell
Yea
All I ask for
Was respect and my dignity
Yea yea
Now look at what they giving me
It’s the heart of me
I gotta keep it real
Yea
You be lying in yo verses
We can tell
Yea
All I ask for
Was respect and my dignity
Yea yea
Now look at what they giving me
