Grief pedigree (Yo this shit gon' be live man?) Yeah it better be Never at ease, no downtime Y'all niggas sound fine
I admit, not from environment to let a child flourish In the street, slim physique, wild courage 5 deep tryna eat lookin malnourished Give what you now cherish or thou perish Attack yours, like pack dogs with black pores Emerged when we was getting served by crack whores Jakes chase us into vacants with the trap doors Where we altered the shotguns with hacksaws In the frozen ghetto our clothes disheveled Either you a stick up kid or chose to peddle I'm so honest show promise when I'm rhyming I might've been but my first vitamin was iron I sailed right into sales, buying and supplying Burner and fishscale, dying to start frying I get it where they grow it, grip it when it's loaded Script it like a poet cause I live it and I know it
We, never at ease no downtime I'm sick with it, y'all niggas sound fine From where it's hard, a man stressin Either starve or pull a transgression Waltz up with the nina, no dance lesson Pumped heavy on the bench so you can't press him We, never at ease no downtime I'm sick with it, y'all niggas sound fine
Pops used to run the land, was a haunted man Showed me a .44 before Son of Sam No high-fives, everything underhand Grit poor, big score was a hundred grand Pitch till you rich, that's my cousin plan He saw a light, all night the oven ran Drug indictment, the excitement when he cut a gram Move hasty, must've been tasty as buttered yam That's word. Can't curve once we gutta fam Gun handles'll take money in rubber bands Spin foes out windows then the shutter slam I'm a Fresh Fest, nigga you a Summer Jam Trust, I'm the hustle, you the running man A respected shepherd, you another lamb Don't speak, pull the heat, niggas understand (Word to my mother) Niggas understand
I go back when City was really thug Cops loco, choke holds, billy clubs They box, but stray shots'll spill your blood Gray tops, every block's filled with drugs Hassled by the Law but we adapted to the raw In the city eating till the apple was a core Lived the cinema, rapping was the score We called it \"work\" cuz packaging was a chore ...Niggas numb to shit Getting capital and if tackled it's the same punishment
We, never at ease no downtime I'm sick with it, y'all niggas sound fine From where it's hard, a man stressin Either starve or pull a transgression Waltz up with the nina, no dance lesson Pumped heavy on the bench so you can't press him We, never at ease no downtime I'm sick with it, y'all niggas sound fine
