From The Heart Video (MV)

Gon' let it all out
I'm only writin' shit from the heart from now on
I mean, I feel like I been doin' that, though
HOOD POET
Bah
Bah

I done seen niggas fall victim to them 9 shells
Asked if I'm the greatest and I told 'em only time tell
Came a long way from a dope-based clientele
And my ambition wasn't gon' never grow if I ain't fail
Money, power, fame, the only thing that keep these hoes here
Tweakin' in the 'Raq, swear that I done seen some cold years
No, he ain't a killer, he just actin' like that role here
Too deep in my feelings, had to wipe away my own tears
But I can't cry no more, I think my tears stuck
Still keep my head up, quick to let that SIG bust
Hate when they take credit for that work, they say they did what?
Always hit the strip, ain't go to church, wish them kids luck
He hard-bodied 'til them hollows rip his flesh and his bones
Tryna bury all our opps 'til all our blessings is gone
Don't think the white folks' hate for us was ever this strong
Who gon' avenge us? Undertaker keep collectin' 'em stones
Late nights when he slidin', he crept with his chrome
Always feel like it's his time when he checkin' his phone
Thoughts of suicide, cryin' with a TEC at his dome
And all 'em feelings he was hidin', they'll never be known
Love my lil' brother, I just hate that I can't tell him he wrong
Earned it in the streets 'cause I ain't feel respected at home
Celebratin' with me, 'member when they left me alone
Gon' let it all out, won't leave no bars left for this song
See me at the top, but they ain't seen the places I crawled
You ain't talkin' money, you don't speak my language at all
Reaper comin' for me, know they hope and pray that I fall
Was shootin' for the stars and I put all my faith in that ball
That's no bap, I'm just runnin' more laps
Hudson made me, I was a block baby way before rap
They killin' all the rappers, so I stay alert with my strap
It's too early to have the guys out here merchin' on Cap'
He a bitch, congratulations, oh, you earnin' your nap
Catfishin' 'cause they be a different person on apps
Don't need a switch to turn these lights off, them killers gon' clap
Rollin' the dice, lettin' them pipes off, which niggas gon' crap?
Dream chasin', they said the meek shall inherit the earth
My son won't struggle 'cause I went through that embarrassment first
Only time I know my heart is still there when it hurt
Gon' be that nigga 'til my family gotta stare in that dirt
Gang
