Kid on the Block |
Ayo, I used to wanna be the toughest kid on the block |
Till I found out the toughest kid always gets shot |
I used to wanna make a mill pushin that rock |
Till I found out the big timers always got caught |
I used to wanna be the OG tellin a tale |
Til I found out they only up dead or in jail |
I was Lost and confused searchin for somebody to be |
Till I realized that person I was searchin for was me |
Look, as of right now I’m writing rhymes in this notebook |
Scheming on making ways to make a mil, without giving my soul up |
& Split it with the cats that had nothing but love to show us |
In hopes that I never have to watch my nigga bag that coke up |
Just to make a buck to put some food in his belly |
I ain’t worried about the rumors or the bullshit they tell me |
Cause me & my niggas, yeah we tryna eat |
We tryna get that, never sleep & never sit back |
Talk is cheap so quit the chit chat |
If you ain’t got the flow you gotta go |
If you & I suppose, you’re gonna need a thousand up front for me to rock a show |
nigga |
Tellin' you I’m bout my busy |
I’m learnin' to forgive all the dirt that everyones did me |
Simply cause I’m just tryna learn to love before they kill me |
I don’t do this for myself, this for everyone that’s with me |
I just wanna be remembered when my time is up |
Not as a G, not as a thug, cause homie I ain’t tough |
Just remember me for everything I tried to tell you |
Cause when I’m gone It’ll make sense but I don’t wanna fail you |
So I try my best to try & stay alive |
But it’s hard when the cats that wanna take your life know where your family |
resides |
Mama tells me stay inside, but I fear no man but god |
So I’m out every day & night |
I show up in my enemy’s city, tasting my faith |
Hoping I don’t lose my life so I bow my head & I pray |
Cause if my time comes then it was meant to come |
But when everything said & done |
All I ask of you is dont forget the love |
I used to wanna be the toughest kid on the block |
Till I found out the toughest kid always gets shot |
I used to wanna make a mill pushin that rock |
Till I found out the big timers always got caught |
I used to wanna be the OG tellin a tale |
Til I found out they only up dead or in jail |
I was Lost and confused searchin for somebody to be |
Till I realized that person I was searchin for was me |
