Oldtown 96 |
One upon a time on the J Block yo! |
My homies had to get the dough |
Once upon a time on the J Block yo! |
The homies hit the liquor store |
See we was kids so many loss innocence |
Caught feelings, caught charges caught sentences |
Good catching up but what’s worth remembering? |
Letting go of yesterday even tomorrow’s different |
Bruce Wayne dark nights during car rides |
Bumpy roads sharp rights on apartheid |
Round the corner from poverty and hard times |
Boys taking shots like paparazzi at bar fights |
Still black lives going for cheap |
Tributes with lip service make it harder to sleep |
Right in the triple six, yea the mark of the beast |
These crackers shooting up churches but they targeting me? |
Look, I been black longer than I been my first name |
Called nigga before a nigga ever learned names, a lot of schools underserved |
since the first grade |
Now a nigga like 'fuck school' and never learned trades |
Off the porch with the flocks in his flip flops |
Veering left everyday a nigga pissed off |
Back on the block or what I’m still a chip off |
Between a hard place and rock but never pitched raw |
All we wanted was a piece of mind |
Right wrongs in the dark trying to see the light |
Silver lining dark clouds when we see the sky |
At the bottom looking up trying to see the heights |
Yea, all I wanted was a piece of mind, a piece, a slice of the pie that America |
divides |
Speak truth to the power ain’t no need to hide |
So my kids and they kids will never be denied, yeah |
Them boys in front the Dillon’s with the Demi Lovato |
Sending clucks to the store like get me a bottle |
Got plenty bravado when the semi is auto |
Like get to the point or send me the hollow |
Still, in the color section no respect for the twelve |
Since adolescence been neglected for real |
Crooked corrupt methods been expected as well |
Many deceptions exceptions I recollect for myself |
Extremes, heaven or hell, or weapons and shells |
Department of corrections maybe references jail |
Indictments, with lack of evidence, expected to fail |
Innocent, guilty, alleged, man a blessing would help |
Brown paper bags or your check in the mail |
Connections with the Mexicans, what’s left on the scale |
Death before the dishonor, all that’s left is betrayal |
Empathy, indifference, loyalty, we stressed in a cell |
