Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uh, uh
Uh

I take 5 steps, at least 5 breaths
Think back how they slow Crip
Fake 5 set, I remember slipping through these cracks
Back to back, peers right on my neck
It tows quick everyday, how it goes everyday
God hit me back, stead the plot, we stand with the plan
You should know, same hands
Black hands, just grown
She used to play about me hearing the phone
Nowadays small change, anything goes
Time crazy, my mind take me places I can't pen, then again I know where I'm at
Still trapped, doubling back again, bitch you watch
Nigga, you watch, go get a back

Go get a bag
Then again, to the point

Yeah, don't you count on another man to get you popping
If you can't get it on your own, then you need different options
You can argue all topics, I don't give a damn
Fuck you in advance
I weigh (?), you ain't getting lit (word)
Different day, same scene, wax did me in
Smoke blazing my skin, I pull through, it's a blessing, we can breathe in peace
Used to smoke out on Easy Street
Then the boys ran down on your guys, life was hard
Still lived worse as a kid, we still traumatized
Realized the other side was begging for a rise
Throw gats on the fire ford, chased turned it to a flame
Tripled up and rearranged, changed my name
Apply pressure to alt-right
Tuck 'em in the grave at night
See my reflection in this safe next to bullets
These niggas fingers be real sticky
I used to hide bread from my momma, she live with me
On wire crazy but they still found time to hate me
Blame the baby for me shitting on you niggas lately
This the testament, real shit forever relevant




We prevalent, carefully smoking the evidence
Being benevolent
