Dishonored Valor |
Look, I know a cat that joined the military at an early age |
I’ve seen him once and a while when he’d come around the way |
I would see that picture where he posin' camouflage and paint |
Shit, I knew him hella young, I heard he had them straight A’s |
But he didn’t respect his momma much |
So Oakland is where they sent him up |
Snd he always stayed out of touch |
He only called home when he need a buck |
Got locked up, caught selling drugs |
Life changed a nigga, went from sharp to a fuckin' thug |
Fresh off the grid, back in the hustle mode |
No time to muffle though, that ain’t the hustler’s code |
And it’s hard to trust him with dough |
My other homie said he stole a studio right up out of his home |
Military trained with a military brain |
Hard to process, switchin' and changin' lanes |
I know some killers out the military |
I know some dealers out the military |
See, you can be all you wanna be |
See, you can be all you wanna be |
See, you can be a (what?) drug dealer (what?) |
Thug nigga (what?) born killer (what?) |
See, you can be all you wanna be |
See, you can be all you wanna be |
See, you can be |
I got a gang of brothers that was in the military that was just honorably |
discharged |
Really wasn’t cut like Rambo when the shit starts |
I don’t blame 'em, I would’ve been right there smokin' weed too |
Fuck flyin' up and skydivin' out a B2 |
I know some homies that got PTSD |
And now they havin' flashbacks |
It’s stories of hazmats, and being ransacked |
And now they on packs of the Xanax |
To hold back the thoughts of all the bad acts |
Nigga used to be a dork, now he a Mad Max |
Quick to snap a niggas cap back and show his flag tats |
Yeah, a cop’s nightmare, that is a rogue soldier |
That seen too much and was told to roll over |
Now he can’t be sober, he got a cold shoulder |
To the same country he feel |
He used to drive the tanks and control rovers |
Now he rather be a loner while he’s growin' older |
I know some killers out the military |
I know some dealers out the military |
See, you can be all you wanna be |
See, you can be all you wanna be |
See, you can be a (what?) drug dealer (what?) |
Thug nigga (what?) born killer (what?) |
See, you can be all you wanna be |
See, you can be all you wanna be |
See, you can be |
All you can be, dawg, even the president |
Popular demand don’t matter when they riggin' the messages Look at all the |
messes and opiods and the recklessness |
The terrorists, and what all this represents is common negligence |
How embarrassing, can’t even kneel like Colin Kaepernick in America |
The land of the free, the land of the foul |
The land of the «all we want is power right now» |
Give it up |
Everybody drinkin'? |
How come the front row ain’t have no drinks, |
what happened here? |
Gotta get the front row some drinks. |
White people ain’t |
feelin' it. |
If they were black people with no drinks they’d be raising hell |
right now. |
See, white people are just so patient. |
Black people: «that motherfucker! |
I’ve been here a half hour, my shit ain’t here yet». |
Everybody drinkin', having a good time? |
