[Verse 1: Adverse]
This goes out to my felons that can't get jobs
Need to feed their seeds so they have to rob…
Shout out to the snakes in their camouflage
Actors who do whatever when the camera's off
This world's manic erasing the line of trust
I mean even the government lies to us…
Friend and foes have become synonymous
Can't tell the difference between a dawg n snitch
A world ran on money, madness n' greed
The root of evil planted all family trees…
The panic for cheese causes some insanity pleas
BLAM, Body's in the sand, sadness and grief…
Violence glorified by every CD in stores…
And broad-casted by every media source
We need a revolution, we need to rea**ured
There's more if you need another reason for war
[Hook]
One day i'm trying to have a wife and kids
So I just can't live my life like this
And I ain't tryna learn what lifeless is
So I just can't live my life like this
I want the gold chains, the diamond rings
But I just can't live my life like this
And sometimes i want to light this spliff
But i just can't live my life like this

[Verse 3: Adverse]
Do whatever I have to do to be known
Whether that's two in the dome in a funeral home
Get rich or die tryin the poor man's slogan
Asking god to let me make it, both hands closed in
Don't want to be caught up with kids
In cell blocks, who's bullets caught em a victim
For youths whose memories gotta revist
The hot blocks and the rocks they were flippin
I want my future kids to have a fatherly figure
The streets is the lowest winnin lottery ticket
A dirty world that nobodies willin to scrub
Dreams of evil translating to a billion bucks
America is driven off of riches and wealth
Grinding to get it whether in sickness or health
And I'm no different, trying to get the bills
And if that resorts to me breakin laws, liftin steel
Then so be it…
[Hook]
