[Verse 3] I got shot when I was 12, Lost my pop when I was 14 Shot again at 20 will I shake these old dreams Lord wake me up to holy water on my face and 3 blood drops dried on the side of my eyes Why we gotta kill our own kind when we rise Got me looking down the ladder now when I climb Pulling up on my nephews And they don't wanna drive They wanna learn how to work the tool And who am I not to do the duty Just think if pops advice get sent from black ink And that stinks but homie that's real And in the hood even steaks smell bad on the grill I remember when if you was a hustler you was a winner Now that's like raking up leaves in the winter And that ain't even cool to miss a few summers
