Yeah Look, look They threw us in the slums of the concrete jungle Never had shit I'm the same came humble Stumbled off the porch, I'm concerned will I crumble In this cold world everybody packing better bundle Searching for the light at the end of the tunnel as it dims I begin to think I'm looking down a funnel Will I make it for I tumble on the bodies that they jumbled Never drop the ball around them they returning what you fumble I'm so disgusted with all this public injustice The government got an army but still I feel that it's just us I seen this shit on the news politicians ain't doing nothing Don't put your hand on my back tryna up us cause y'all the puppets How the needs of the needy out ya budget They push until they can budge us, the edge is close they can nudge us In this nation we created one republic Serenading to a grieving people singing that they love us Same song I swear I heard it all before I tried to keep the peace but got involved with war Playing devil's advocate I'm all in for This deal I'm bout to make I hope it's what I bargained for Look, currently I've been focused on getting currency Tryna fall in the wave of the current See what's occurring be me who's tryna refurbish This world before it's refurnished With niggas preserved in hearses replacing they reimbursements Got comments reserve the urges no need for critics reviews My plan of action is perfect no way it can be improved Won't see what's beneath the surface before I complete my purpose Of making mills off these verses, I'm done when I pay my dues Look this the truth The shit that make em root for you ain't what I'm in the booth to boost I know it isn't suitable or usual for youth to be spitting what's not computable It's sick how I've been using this pen as my pharmaceuticals Run from the slums, better run from the slums The cops got guns, my nigga don't run Or it's gonna be man down, another black man down Better put your hands up, nigga what's a hand out Understand I stand out Nigga better run, ain't no need in feeling done Ain't no need in feeling done When these niggas feelings numb, nigga better run Nigga better run They ain't letting up for nothing, how they let em get a gun How you let em F*ck it here they come, tired of fighting over crumbs Gotta stand up for something Gotta stand up for something Told all my niggas equip fully loaded banana clips Leave the clip on the floor if I see em slip then I let it rip A revolution, rebellion, a felony on my hip We back to wading in water, they packing us on the ship The man is stacking his chips, cracked the can to his funds then dip We never gone see the light but my nigga I'm tryna glimpse They put us all in the dark with no light in this full eclipse These niggas extend they circles I never seen an ellipse My nigga just shut your lips, you know Plead the fifth like this don't concern me They say I'm the truth don't speak without attorneys Everything I say can and will be used when tables turning All that higher learning inspired from what the fire burning Passionate as sermons we yearning from that of Pastor Kerney Understand my earnings from niggas I'm stretching on these gurneys Down this righteous path who can tell what I got left to journey Y'all could tell me half of these verdicts before the courts adjourning Characteristics envisioned about my pigment They're stereotypic, stereos tipping shit to the limit Hypocrisy from these critics considered by many Christian Who christen their children praying their living decisions different from mine Young and black, they look at it as if it’s given Thinking I would give in to the stigma set on how we’re living Caught in an enigma I was sent to be a fucking killer Imagine how it feel to live and be a fucking nigga Racial tensions rise as I'm focused more on diffusing Diluted minds with delusions been filled with these false illusions Content with causing contusions, convinced that it ain’t confusion Instead that they been aware that my people battered with bruises Influence these feeble minds, modern nooses disguised as Cubans Considered by many nuisance if money don’t come profusely The word nigga thrown around loosely still I figure get in where I fit in if the crowd suit me Run from the slums, better run from the slums The cops got guns, my nigga don't run Or it's gonna be man down, another black man down Better put your hands up, nigga what's a hand out Understand I stand out Nigga better run, ain't no need in feeling done Ain't no need in feeling done When these niggas feelings numb, nigga better run Nigga better run They ain't letting up for nothing, how they let em get a gun How you let em F*ck it here they come, tired of fighting over crumbs Gotta stand up for something Gotta stand up for something
