Justus Clarke - City Conscious lyrics

[Intro: Master P talking] “I'm just talking about what I see. Man look around. Look, look, what you see? You tell me what you see. You see a bunch of mansions around here? Do you? (No.) Okay. That's reality. That's what I'm talking about. It don't even get no realer than this.” [Verse 1: Malik Ninety Five] I never put my trust in no man, strictly faith in God So laughing at you n***as still putting your faith in broads I came up out the city, some would say I'm beating the odds Want all my n***as with me so for now I'm doing my job Still aiming for the top, no downplay They take your life, they earn their stripes, all up in broad day What a shame, gripping grain, all the same, we on the way Still rising to the top, nothing less than pa** great My homies steady hustle cause we tryna see a million bucks I go hard cause n***as talk but they don't listen too much I guess I gotta talk it, who not but me? Moving so swift through the city but rough sh** all I see Gotta let me tell you I been plotting But strictly op sh** what I been watching Swear y'all make it tougher to breathe Cause in my [?] calling out, only when we could stop it Told my brother, “man you gotta watch it” [Hook] Rolling through this city man you gotta stay conscious ‘Cause you know them n***as still plotting (2x) Plotting and watching, and n***as tryna rob me This dude was tryna get it, I ain't have no other option [Verse 2: Trigga] Long as I got n***as riding ‘til my d**hbed A down b**h that never cross me, give the best head It's f**ed up, my pop potna just watched on that scene as his chest bled The ones that he kept fed I had to get it on my own, bank loan, big chrome But leave the b**h on, it's blown Tell me what you tryna do, sh** I'm tryna bust a move n***as always plotting, people watching, gotta keep my tool You ain't gotta be in the streets, the sidewalk they park it You lacking and have it, ‘less a mark mean a target Remember them times I had to jack and rob Man I ain't fear karma, just my hunger and pride Had to push that to the side, in my city really ride And my city n***as really die You can tell I really want it by the look in my eyes They f**ing fakes, straight snakes disguised [Hook] Rolling through this city man you gotta stay conscious ‘Cause you know them n***as still plotting (2x) Plotting and watching, and n***as tryna rob me This dude was tryna get it, I ain't have no other option
