Cause it's exactly what I go through One of the main reasons I've been anti-social You looking for advice my n***a I can't coach you Lost in the streets where I'm trapped with no way out Jail ain't no option so I'm fighting for a way out Plans go accordingly to how the cards play out Traumatized from the memories I can't fade out Lord please help me and forgive me for my actions All this anger built up got me overreacting Rumor is, ain't no happiness around trapping You've been talking to the captain I'ma show you how it happened I've been ready for this action Been built since a youngin' My little n***as bucking cause this sh** will just get real When we out here (haha) We don't play f** it, we get the chips Frito Lays Stack it in my pocket Let it stack to the ceiling Let you know I got it Trying to get me profit All knowledge That's why I spit it off the dome When I'm wiling through the streets with my bros, I got the chrome It's just the real life f** it Y'all don't know what it feel like [ Verse 3: ViBE ] This is about progression I count my blessings and found a lesson I learned that what you had was building blocks to what you're getting Them n***as ghost while you struggle until ghosts what you get in Don't boast what you're getting Then you should hope for protection n***as lurking b**hes t**ng a**es like Perkins Some b**hes foul but they give them the D like Kendrick Perkins It's ok to see a thick b**h do the thunder clap But I won't pull my sword for a hoe I ain't the Thunder Cats But them other cats gonna fall in baby mother traps And run from ex lovers Sex in covers cost but can't cover that The love in fact was never much of that and he was never rich That bull was tellin fibs, now all he do is reminisce
