Razor blades in lip, 9 milli in the whip
Money, power, respect — I been told this is as good as gets
Gold is how we measure success
Pops left, mama wept, friends died
Our destruction is our genocide
This is for my people still alive, my block is big is enterprise
Convicts must not apply to that job, they're surprised that I rob
Treat me like animal, I refuse to pray to their God
I come from a king and queen but they treat me like I do not
Guns go pop pop pop, pharmacy is in my pocket
They ain't leaving me many options, call each other n***as often
One American pie
I'm just arguing the portions and of course who the source is of all the lies
If we teach our young hatred vaporize and in their eyes we will shine, like kings of old
The crown will glow, everything remains gold
We all good
(Long as the d** keep coming)
(Long as the money keep coming)
(Long as the guns keep coming)
Kilograms change hands on my corner
Ladies on my controlla, pockets that's full of boulders
The soldiers were sipping Saki, numb do to exposure
Gun holders a chip heavy on my shoulder
These shackles how the hold us back and while hell's upon us
Our family member goners, locked up behind the bars
Others are in a box putting me and mine in mourning
Our fathers don't even want 'em, mom is more like a warden
The dollars are more important, according to sources we failed
We got kids in jail, we did not excel, she did not get bail
Weight is on the scale gotta make a sale
Gotta feed my babies teach them to prevail
Smoke my pain, inhale
Then it's razor blades in lip, 9 milli in the whip
Money, power, respect — I been told this is as good as gets
Gold is how we measure success
Pops left, mama wept, friends died
We all good
(Long as the d** keep coming)
(Long as the money keep coming)
(Long as the guns keep coming)
