{intro}
I just wanted the glory
I just wanted my story to be told by someone important
Nothing but horrors
Cause what i had endured was all bloody and gory
Came home so many times with blood in my jordans
Wasn't a single time my mom wasn't supportive
They told me these are deeds i never wanted awarded
{verse}
Mm, money was short and no success, ton of misfortune
I was sitting in the kitchen 'bout 1 in the morning
Got on my knees and prayed i'd double the portion
Dropped the ice and pots, god's gon trouble the waters
Y'all had noting in order
Y'all just run with the stories
How you watch a ni**a lifе when it come in recordеd?
I watched my homie bury both parents, a month he was mourning
Then went and bought a couple bricks with his mother insurance
Stuck on a corner, heard the hood out here hustling for him
Got locked and shortly after he turned fu*king informant
Came home and got killed by a couple of homies
How do i explain that to his son and his daughter?
Knowing he won't raise them well we died on a paper trail
His killers hugging on his sister, she ain't take this well
I did a poem for him. tears flowing down my face as well
I'm speaking of a better place knowing he went straight to hell
Out here they prey in a week, they out here playing for keeps
I done done too much dirt, i can't stay in the streets
My first opp told me he had kids, i laid him to sleep
Now i got 2 kids, i'm praying for peace
It wasn't no shooter's remorse
Wasn't no rules in this war
Now we're years down the line and i grew and matured
You see me with my motherfu*king kids, keep moving along
I'll return the favor when i see you out with yours
I beg and plead with god cause he know every evil job i did
Took so many out, i used to cherish these accomplishments
Gang showed me only time i ever seen some father sh*t
Big homie came to all my parent-teacher conferences
I had a higher point back then i was the man
Got in a drive-by back then, that sh*t jammed
Failed mission, that there did something to my pride
Same night they came through dumping out the dodge
{hook}
It's a murder town
Welcome to murder town
Take you for a ride where we slide
ni**as die right here
Don't get nervous now
Only for the guys
See it's gunshots fired on the block
Know you heard the sound
7 miles wide
Only gunshots fired on the block staying further down
Gunshots fired
