Freddie Gibbs - Come Around My Way lyrics

[Hook x2:] You think you know but you ain't got no clue What the street life will make you do Follow me lemme show you how we grind, how we stack our pay f**k Tomorrow cause we livin' for today Come around my way I'm tired of dealin' with this constant stress The only thing guaranteed to a n***a is d**h So we run the risk of gettin' arrested But it's hard gettin' money in my hood cause the block congested n***as gettin' me to pull out the vests If you scared of gettin tested Homie this isn't something you shouldn't mess with I saw some fatal images when I was eleven That's when my uncle got addicted to the sh*t he was sellin' And I just took it as a lesson and learned from his mistakes I'm a keep my faith in god til I catch my break They say my momma's first born turned out to be a thug n***a A bad example for my brother and my little sister I could do better and I knew that sh*t I had a couple opportunities I blew that sh*t But being lord of the streets will make you do that sh*t You get a job go to school and sh*t I'd rather move that brick [Hook x2:] You think you know but you ain't got no clue What the street life will make you do Follow me lemme show you how we grind, how we stack our pay f**k Tomorrow cause we livin' for today Come around my way Come and take a lil' trip to my hood And see that everything ain't all good If I could turn around my life I would This is owned by the arabs and asians In the city it's 90 percent black The mayor is caucasian I ain't prejudice I just tell it how it is This is one of the worst places you can raise yo kids Cause instead of buildin' more schools they buildin' more prisons Our tax dollars is feeding all these greedy politicians They sittin'; up gettin'; fat while we starve in the hood The unemployment rate is bonkers ain't no job in the hood If you ain; t working a job then you movin' some work Stickin'; these needles, pimpin'; these b**ches, or doin' some dirt It's amazing what motherf**kers will do for the murk You get to comfortable your whole crew will get murked You got your ticket out the hood I suggest you get up on it And pray for the future but we livin'; for the moment Whatever's necessary I'm a do it til they drop my body in the cemetery Welcome to Scary Gary nikka [Hook x2:] You think you know but you ain't got no clue What the street life will make you do Follow me lemme show you how we grind, how we stack our pay f**k Tomorrow cause we livin' for today Come around my way
