[Verse 1]
To the metal, hear the echoes of the ghetto
My n***as screaming for freedom
When beefing was just a vegan, uh
Lives stolen like thieving
Another mother grieving, seeing her son stretched out
Body on the cement
Tales of the broken nameless with a purpose
From DNA to the surface, a real n***a emerges
Smoking Buddha, open minds like brain surgeon
Flow tsunami so present rappers compete the current
[Hook]
This for my n***as that gang bang
Living without your pops
Stuck and cops that maintain pushing rocks
Busting shots to stay sane
Feel the world's your enemy, no sympathy, blowing minds like Kennedy, uh
[Verse 2]
From a place where c**aine became Abel
Dishing out the truth, these n***as is playing cable
Remain stable, pray to God or Allah, whoever you label
These labels will gas you up and they replace you
I mean, it seems it's hard to find green with cattle beef
When option is robbing pockets with casualties casually cannibalistic
Eat rappers consistent, in an instant
Been sh**ting on these n***as like some infants
Changing the game like ten cents, mil
d**h around the corner like incents
The .45 is in grip, uh
Eighteen years young, never moved a ki, but I seen it
And watched a brother gunned down, sh**, without a reason
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
Its territory, you get k**ed for treason
Ill minds spitting diseases, whack artists fall like season
Young king, no, Young Caesar
Spit heat, like caught fever
Til 'vacat to Costa Rica, shake industry like a seizure, uh
What you do when your block looking like Pakistan
Them bullets flying, you make an effort to take a stand
But in that effort you die, d**h in your family plan
Your little man wondering, "When I'm gon' get to see my dad?"
Sad story, ghetto nightmares gory
He thought living was sweet 'til he met the world like Cory
Pockets empty so options to cop a semi is surely
Remedy? Drown his problems with Hennessey and some more weed, uh
[Hook]
