Blown Away |
| Ah-hah! |
| Upfront, let’s go |
| Konvict, haha |
| We in too deep to turn back now, D (Sure is) |
| Watch yourself 'fore you get (Watch it) |
| Blown away |
| You know where I come from |
| The place where your fade is a mic or a bull or dum-dum |
| A jail cell, a pine box, and brothers are dumb young |
| Still bust a gun for the slum that they come from |
| Cops is the only ones they gon' run from |
| They puttin' they hood up |
| But 9 out of 10 of us ain’t got good luck |
| You gon' ride on a man and catch 25 |
| Or get hit and get sent to the other side |
| You lose both sides of the coin |
| So me, I play the hood, baby, 9 in the groin |
| Momma got a little church I could join, but I ain’t go yet |
| Man got a mosque I could join, but I ain’t go yet |
| Cool with the devil on my back, I’m in cold sweats |
| About to do some dirt in some dirty black old sweats |
| If you known, you should’ve shown the way |
| Most the hood on the path to get blown away |
| 'Cause I was raised up to show no fear |
| Cowardly hearts’ll never last long here |
| If you ain’t man up to make shit clear |
| Guaranteed you’ll get blown away |
| 'Cause I done seen the block break down tears |
| And I done seen the cops break my peers |
| Tryna hold on a couple more years |
| Tryin' not to get blown away |
| See, I ain’t never shot nobody, but I’m known for fighting |
| So when I strike, man, you think you been struck by lightning |
| Shouldn’t have to prove myself by killin' a nigga |
| Even a child can take a life by pullin' a trigger |
| Retaliation only takes anger mixed with passion |
| See your target in the distance and keep on blastin' |
| They say, «Guns don’t kill people, people do» |
| So when you hit, man, you feel that shit them evils do |
| Can’t see myself gettin' beat down, my eyes swollen |
| Moms crying, really don’t know what happened, my pride’s stolen |
| If I ain’t got my heat, then I got a blade |
| That can get you off me in so many ways |
| 'Cause I was raised up to show no fear |
| Cowardly hearts’ll never last long here |
| If you ain’t man up to make shit clear |
| Guaranteed you’ll get blown away |
| 'Cause I done seen the block break down tears |
| And I done seen the cops break my peers |
| Tryna hold on a couple more years |
| Tryin' not to get blown away |
| I keep my eye out for Jakes, ears to the streets |
| Other eye out for snakes and these scandalous freaks |
| If we ain’t on good terms, don’t bother to speak |
| Don’t smile and try to spark a convo with me |
| Same thing make you laugh will make you cry |
| Fuck around and let this quiet nigga here take your life |
| Hate for it to be you the world sacrifice |
| So somebody else could travel through the tunnel of life |
| 'Cause I’m that type of guy |
| I’ll be there when you’re ridin', but I stay to myself |
| So if you see me out there with a bear and we fightin' |
| Nigga, then go help the bear |
| 'Cause I was raised up to show no fear |
| Cowardly hearts’ll never last long here |
| If you ain’t man up to make shit clear |
| Guaranteed you’ll get blown away |
| 'Cause I done seen the block break down tears |
| And I done seen the cops break my peers |
| Tryna hold on a couple more years |
| Tryin' not to get blown away |
