Quicksand |
| Yeah |
| The homie Don P called the big fella in to talk about this repetitive ass cycle |
| that we livin' in the hood |
| No matter how much we struggle, how much we fight |
| It seems like the perpetual quicksand is always grabbing us and pulling us back |
| down |
| So I’m not here to play the victim or no shit like that you know what I mean |
| But with that being said |
| If a pussy run his mouth about yo boy I’ma sock him |
| Hang a chopper out the window of the low, get to choppin' |
| Mind frame of a slave in the days of pickin' cotton |
| Only difference nowadays your favorite rappers say it’s poppin' |
| Pushin' product to my people, living evil for the profit |
| Stay hungry, gotta get it any means, that’s my logic |
| Who gives a fuck about destruction, who I’m crushin' for this dollar |
| Hard times make me holler, gots to get up out this squalor |
| Push a cherry red Impala with these cherry Chucks on |
| Who gives a fuck what you think of me, let it be known |
| So proud of my pedigree, strong as King Kong |
| Until the last breath of me, this the shit I’m on |
| Mind frame of a soldier, I’m at war with my people |
| Wicked teachings from these demons planted deep in my cerebral |
| Yet I’m smart enough to know it but the knowledge ain’t enough |
| To get the fuck up out of here I gotta get above quicksand |
| I ain’t never been a quitter, they don’t come no realer |
| I’ma stand up nigga, quicksand |
| As long as I’m livin' all I know is go get it |
| Ain’t no fucks given, quicksand |
| I’m in too deep, no turnin' back now |
| I’m playin' for keeps, quicksand |
| I ain’t had no sleep, I am these gutters, I am these streets |
| I pray for anyone living under duress to be blessed |
| Created to be free ain’t no reason to see any less |
| I peep the social media leading to giving me stress |
| The black lives matter is really a lot of BS |
| Could we just attempt to be honest with one another |
| Talk about the kid you know with no father who got a mother |
| Older brother was a positive figure in the community |
| Who caught a case and ended up wasting his opportunity |
| As soon as we get real with the will to address the evil |
| It becomes crystal clear every one of us still inequal |
| Don’t believe in any system they say was made to defeat you |
| If any of it matters at all it has to be fecal |
| I’ve had it up to here about the talk about reparations |
| We need to steer the focus on getting some education |
| They say it’s the white people hating, they ain’t attacking you |
| Nobody black is packing up tryna go back to Africa |
| Facts |
| I ain’t never been a quitter, they don’t come no realer |
| I’ma stand up nigga, quicksand |
| As long as I’m livin' all I know is go get it |
| Ain’t no fucks given, quicksand |
| I’m in too deep, no turnin' back now |
| I’m playin' for keeps, quicksand |
| I ain’t had no sleep, I am these gutters, I am these streets |
| Yup |
| They in the trap now |
| I said them backyard niggas don’t back down |
| They used to bend a couple corners with the straps out |
| They got a short fuse, they act out |
| Got lean, got dope, got the packs now |
| All day in and out up out the crack house |
| Got to worry about the law, and the money, and the bitches |
| No love for the game, nigga everybody snitchin' |
| What’s real |
| I ain’t never been a quitter, they don’t come no realer |
| I’ma stand up nigga, quicksand |
| As long as I’m livin' all I know is go get it |
| Ain’t no fucks given, quicksand |
| I’m in too deep, no turnin' back now |
| I’m playin' for keeps, quicksand |
| I ain’t had no sleep, I am these gutters, I am these streets |
