Lookin' outta my window, I see a block full of kinfolk
|
On the porch with a 40, full of that endo
|
The shawty clutching her son, he got a afro
|
And daddy nowhere around, where did the man go?
|
It's stacked up on the block, yeah, Legos
|
Feel like it's cheap but it's good, yeah, Faygo
|
It's like I'm dead but I ain't, am I a ghost bro?
|
Feel like two parts of me damned, am I a schizo?
|
And part of me happy, the other half is greed
|
'Cause I'm doing all these shows but I'm still feeling this need
|
I talk about how much different the world could be
|
But still I sit on this throne like I'm a king
|
Still I sit on this throne like I'm a king
|
Still sit on this throne like I'm a king
|
Might be a little too comfortable [?] man, I better get up!
|
|
Cousin front of this flat screen, I see crushed dreams
|
Channel 2 News, I see a couple me's
|
I see a couple you's, I see a couple Gs
|
I see some VLs sent to the F-e-d's
|
Federal Pen if you didn't know
|
They would come hard trying not to be broke
|
That's a reality, so many ghetto casualties
|
Make me think, "Lord, why'd you send your love after me?"
|
I can't afford to be stuck up
|
Just saw a stuck-up couple getting stuck up
|
See the person who robbed 'em, saw him a-come up
|
Thought he played that lotto till his luck sucked
|
And it was, he want whips and chains
|
The cops came, then we got whipped and chained
|
My heart broke for the hood, so I just sit and pray
|
'Cause I know Christ gave his blood and it ain't in vain
|
I'm happy but I'm grieved
|
'Cause I'm doing all these shows but I still feel the need
|
I talk about how much different the world could be
|
But still I sit on this throne like I'm a king
|
Still I sit on this throne like I'm a king
|
Still sit on this throne like I'm a king
|
Might be a little too comfortable [?] man, I better get up!
