I'm smiling through the pain but I still stress
Sacrificing everything just to be the best
My moms always kept it real she told me trust no one

These cops left and right I gotta hold my gun
And why do Black kings always gotta deal with this

Keep my circle nice and close You fuck wit me we catch a body
And my niggas always ready got the quick hands like they Ali
Poppin all these shots go stupid comin off the Lean and molly
And I don't wanna have to face the things that we went thru
You know My heart is Been stuck on froze and you can't get through
