Ace Grand - North Linden lyrics

[intro: Ace Grand] Scum of the earth, shooters shoot, caution tape, murder rate rising/ Summer days, guns will spray, window seat riding/ Coroners, white sheets and ambulance sirens, a code of silence/ [Hook: Ace Grand] And through these windows, i see everything and nothing that i dont know/ And everybodys trying not to go broke/ He didn't have it and he need it so he sold dope/ Nobodys perfect, babygirl she got her hopes low/ We'll die a sinner to find out them dollars dont go/ But they dont know the concrete rose grows in the streets they hit with low blows/ Aye is this hell? and what is heaven? where we gon go?/ [Verse 1: Ace Grand] From a porch to the streets, i got quarters for cheap/ But unfortunately can't afford me a piece/ Whats important to me? splurging more than me breathing/ Phone full of tens and juggs, nowadays we not speakin/ Vantage point over myrtle, ima roll me some purple/ Separate from my circle, depression seems eternal/ Theres four corners, n***as trapped, im no different/ Fiends pheenin, fight they addiction/ Stomachs empty, we not friendly, your funds might come up missing/ Stick you up like a poster, a block away from minnesota where i saw my first body/ Now i cope with that paranoia/ Demons on my shoulder make me question if ill grow older/ Pistols stuffed in the sofa/ Cop some dope across the interstate/ Ima spend my last, escape the feelings that i feel today/ Heard they're talking bad while on the COTA cross the interstate/ Staring through the gla**, the streets i pa** along this getaway take me to the past/ [Hook] [Verse 2: QNas] Ive seen it all, ive done it all before/ You think you have? then ask yourself, you ever starved before?/ Cause if you have well, you done been through the struggle/ I know i have in projects with no carpet floors/ This ain't just bars, i got scars from war/ Kicking apartment doors, living above the law, your regular underdog/ A product of my environment, thats money, cars, clothes, and d**, and shots firing/ Police sirens, helicopters and swat raids/ Motherf**ers dying n***a, my block is not safe/ You selling weed but thats not weight/ I was moving weed to another state/ Whats the stakes? man you n***as late/ I dropped them b**hes, had to get it straight and now my n***as straight/ And she going if you didn't know, we be blowing kush smoke out my windows/ [Hook]
