Duncan - Street Love lyrics

[Verse 1:] More than life, I'm in love with breath But was I born a wife in that hole called d**h Got love in the streets established my rep Ain't been behind bars yet, was raised by all vets Taught me the ins and outs, now that I know what it's about What would I be without (love, love, love)? Love from thugs, know a gone crip They show love because I wasn't scared to share blood and that was love Say about this thing called love You know I feel it I feel love and I appreciate the love All my n***as that I came up with, grew up with You know, you know something that'll change over time, ya feel me? It's like seasons and erosions and all that sh**, you dig? I wanna let all you n***as know Listen [Verse 2:] Hate too for all of you fake dudes that's snake dudes Hate too for all of you fake dudes that's snake dudes Stop saying what you gon' do, knowing you can't do sh** Acting like life is something you can't lose Talking sh** that you can back up or prove For my crew, I make you pack up and move Ran dudes like I'm from St. Lou Shout out to Nelly and the b**hes with the apple bottoms But I am from the district where we clap revolvers When nobody love me, got love from mama Chilled out, putting the work, was getting visits from karma Dirt I could get put in my skin is the armor So I'mma stay alive one day I might be a father Loving my seed like I got love for my mama Calm your a** down so you can serve out longer All I need to do is focus on this music and write And God love me so I'm gonna be alright (That's right) I love that sh**, man I love it, even though n***as hate, I still feel the love when I love the love Like I said before, I love the hate too, ya feel me? Cause the hate is also love n***as is just prideful, that's all Y'all are forgiven And with that said [Verse 3:] It's all love when I buck one 4, what up Ock? Used to want to f** up cops because they shot up blocks But the hood ain't gotta talk as long as the heart don't stop Bodies outlined in chalk, when is this sh** gon' stop? I feel the love from Georgia Ave. when I walk past madness Take it to the Southside, still I walk past madness In the hood, the youngins think they the baddest Cause they got it the baddest The money they gotta have it Most of our parents had habits But we had to have this And learn from 'em, ya'll still hustlin' backwards Fell in love with back strips, making money backflip These street acrobatics provided me the status Looking for pips in the night like Gladys Avoid po' po's, you know the bright lights flashing I'mma say I love my n***as now they might ask it But it's too late and I ain't laying in my casket So I love y'all n***as I love all y'all n***as Like I said, man, you know Even those n***as that changed over time Listen here [Outro] Much love to you Cause you ain't phasing me, baby And I forgive you, you can come back any time, I forgive you n***as that switched up, changed up, lied and all that, you know Cause, uhh, you gotta do stuff in the street, man that equal longevity In order to survive, man, that's why I'm alive right now
