Walking down the path that leads to more destruction
Niggas starting war then gettin' killed for nothing
We don't wanna die young
We wanna live for something
They going out as a family
And coming home an orphan
Tires skirtin' the boulevard
Niggas get to runnin'
Getting stomped in the yard
You better get to hustlin'
Knew this life would be hard
But what's another lesson
I just need another blessin'
Pick up the pieces
I'm shattering everything around me
Knew that life wasn't easy but I accept the challenge
We moving closer to death
I can see it around me
30 round surround sound
It's all around me
I feel the pain of a million but I can't let it get me
People coming and going
Saying they won't forget me
Been alone for awhile
I can feel the resentment
People come and go not by choice
But we gotta accept it
Pick up ya head and ya shoulders
You gotta fix the crown
Ain't no one around when you falling
They watch you hit the ground
Everything they been telling is just to hold you down
Holding niggas back when they elevate just to keep you round
They never cared for the screams
The begging and pleading
Fighting off all the demons
Attacking me while I'm bleeding
It's getting harder to breathe
They stay in the shadows scheming
My soul was meant for redeeming
Been fighting without a reason
This is
Bigger than rap my nigga
Bigger than culture
No time to reminisce about life cause it's been over
Red & Blue lights up in the mirror getting closer
Hold my friends close but I hold my enemies closer
Walking down the path that leads to more destruction
Niggas starting war then gettin' killed for nothing
We don't wanna die young
We wanna live for something
They going out as a family
And coming home an orphan
Tires skirtin' the boulevard
Niggas get to runnin'
Getting stomped in the yard
You better get to hustlin'
Knew this life would be hard
But what's another lesson
I just need another blessin'
You have no rival
You have no equal
You are not alone
You are not alone
