AZ Beats - A Reason To Rap lyrics

[Intro: Andre 3000] I know y'all got beaucoup of hoes from all them songs that y'all done made And I replied that I had been going through the same things that he had True, I've got more fans than the average man, but not enough loot to last me To the end of the week, I live by the beat, like you live check-to-check If you don't move your feet then I don't eat, so we like neck-to-neck [Eyewitness Account: Dorian Johnson] And he told me to keep running because he feared for me too. So as he was running the officer was trying to get out of the car, and once he got out the car he pursued my friend but his weapon was drawn. Now he didn't see any weapon drawn at him or anything like that, us going for no weapon. His weapon was already drawn when he got out the car. He shot again, and once my friend felt that shot, he turned around and put his hands in the air, and started to get down, but the officer still approached with his weapon drawn and he fired 7 more shots and my friend died [Verse 1] Another kid lost More like another n***a lost This sh** is getting legendary Too unnecessary This type of pain is really hard to consume For his family and the n***a who seen it happen Left Dorian traumatized, couldn't imagine Society did dirty, trying to claim a soul Look at what you did, the sh** never gets old Michael had a dream like a n***a was supposed to do 18 years old, sh** he was gonna do Losing his life to another one of the men in blue He prolly praying, well God ain't gonna side with you Yo, I'm only 17 Now the 13 year old gotta pray for 18 Cuz kids steady dying, it don't make no sense The next generation, are we really gonna live [Eyewitness Account 2] And in the same moment, the first shot went off. We looked down and he was shot and there was blood coming from him. Then we took off running, as we took off running I ducked and hid for my life, because I was fearing for my life. I hid behind the first car I saw. My friend, he kept running, and he told me to keep running because he feared for me too [Verse 2] If any question why he died Tell them n***as because our fathers lied Tell them n***as because they quick to take our future, our generation is soon to meet demise You thinking other kids really care, yeah I highly doubt it Make a couple songs, then they will start to forget about it Cole telling Society what we want Game got the crew, now n***a this my song Steady writing this sh**, I know this isn't long I got a question for all the people to ponder on Did he k** him because he wanted his name known Or just because he wanted another n***a gone
