[Verse 1 - FLO] My city's played I see pretty faces up in these cages Crazy the scriptures say we been chasing the win for ages Tell me how the star's out he just whip a spaceship Then he buy the bar out that's an imitation Got you tryna ball out cause they rich and famous The things that they get's the same they just pay for expensive labels Everything them boys 'bout just a list of fables Stunting in the Lords house led to flipping tables So I'm a set it off hip-hop be the weapon and I'm gunnin' for the lost won't stop Till it hit 'em and they running to the cross let 'em know that fast life coming at a cost where the (red light) Dawg it's time to be a man you ain't Peter Pan He ain't make you from the dust for you to be a heap of sand [Hook - FLO] Say you can do wrong or you can do right What you gon' do for the rest of your life I just wanna know Homie I wanna know Promise I can hear 'em crying out in my city If you really 'bout it is you tryna roll with me I just wanna know Shawty I wanna know [Verse 2 - J. Monty] I'm sick of the fiction false conviction, False chicks that rock thick chalk to block 'authentic' I don't rock with it if it's not within God's sentences cause it blocks oxygen watch as they chop and they mock throwing rocks at Him You on the block with your Glock and your partna dem All that fame and dreams that you got will end up in the same grave that 2Pac is in See the devil came to smash and devour, have you on a track for that power Lead you right into a casket with flowers or standing right next to some big swole cats in the shower And it's easy to stand by till your feet hit the land mine Can't breathe and you can't cry try to seize what you can while the cops at your back saying 'freeze get your hands high' It's you freedom you can't buy. In this season you chant why Can't dream and you can't fly try to leave but you can't you just wanna hear you daughter breathe on that land line
I'm telling you because i love you and you need to know So what you gonna do I need to know [Hook] [Verse 3 - Threat] If my aim ain't to exalt His name then I'm chalk in the rain Without an aim to maim or rip apart everything when I walk in the rain Leave your carca** remains for the vultures that approach us when we walk in the way With the softest gaze he saw God in my soul and he asked me to pardon his ways He said surely the Lord is merciful just leave all your baggage aside In this land of the lie we a fam that's deprived by the famine with sand in our eyes I said well if He sent down food would you lift up you hands to the sky Would your mans recognize the advantage of God and apply to His plans to your life He said given advantage or not our hands won't go up until the famine has stopped My k**ers got hammers and Glocks ready to get it poppin' right up the block in a sandwich shop But what's next I mean even if you get past the block the security and the cops Your plan is to rot cause you can change the world or be a victim of the circumstance you got [Hook] [Verse 4 - Mouthpi3ce] More shows at award shows they apply sin and award those That oblige sin made lies trend till you tied in trap more folk Where less clothes show more skin that's soft p**n more p**no's Sell dope till you pop up and align up like cornrows Or till that gat rip in your torso You really wanna ball could a went to college could a got a knowledge [?] The game'll say you need more dope no education but you speak Morse Code Summertime feel like the north pole if you keep going through the forked road But the Lord knows us poor souls need a word now (bow your heads let's pray) So I pray to God please give us time before you come down I don't play around when they come around I'm talking I wanna know what's up what path you take when you walking [Hook]
