Need love need honesty, need jobs need property Need food in the gut you know when the gut speak gotta follow it Need the 40 with the extra clip cause these n**** shooting like photography This environment a make you somebody who you don’t wana be but gotta be Focusing more on the inside cause that what determine the outside of me I been out in the cold so long shit the cold don’t bother me Every other day its a drug sell its a gun shot its a robbery Everyday it’s a n*** stuntin’ and somebody being made a mockery Getting money off the only fans so she on the gram with her pants off Little late on the light Bill so she sell her food stamps half off N**** fightin’ over drug sells so we in the hood having standoffs And I’m ‘bout to go get the pack off ‘cause my mom work and my dad gone Swear I used to jump up out of my skin when my daddy told me he was coming by I used to wait by the door for em just to watch em ride by a hunnit times In a dark place still looking out for people even though I wasn’t fine Still standing on 2 feet wear my shoes couldn’t run a mile Just got off from working a double shift and got profiled ‘cause my skin is colored Uncle Sam rob us every week and then we turn around and rob and kill each other As a kid he had big dreams but the hood turned em to a semi tucker Got lost fathers got distant brothers got so many struggles hard to pick a struggle Everybody broke ain’t no nickel rubbin shit real you can’t even sell em a dream Tryn flex the gift God gave me but these n**** wana see the devil in me Hope the Apple fell far from the tree so my son can be better den me Got my own people hating on me ‘cause I’m reaching heights they thought I never could reach Stereotypical black man need meditation need a cat scan Still traumatized from the gat flash ever since then been a madman Damn, yea, ever since then been a madman I still pick up a bag like the trash man I might run in da bank like the sandman
