Sneakers turn to house shoes, stepping on the back Ashing her cigarette in a brown paper bag Smoking joints, lauging tryna get the part straight For ten, put your perm in, don't scratch all day Hot cocoa stove, put the food in the bowl Say that's how many nights it was hard to keep going [Bridge: Danny Brown] Now I'm trapped in the trap and the devil ain't forgetting Wanna see me dead or locked in a prison In the system with division only thing that add up f**ed up cause a n***a tryna get a couple bucks Now I'm trapped in the trap and the devil ain't forgetting Wanna see me dead or locked in a prison In the system with division only thing that add up f**ed up n***a tryna get a couple bucks [Break + Hook] 25 bucks, momma braid your hair Sit on the porch, she'll do it on the stairs Grew your hair out and you wanna get it twisted Fed us many nights, n***a, that's how we was living 25 bucks, momma braid your hair Sit on the porch, she'll do it on the stairs Grew your hair out and you wanna get it twisted Fed us many nights, n***a, that's how we was living I'll not get old If I dig with my knees, if I grind down my teeth I know from the attic of me From the bottoms of pleas, from the waywarded seas [Verse 2: Danny Brown] Iverson zig zags, good night fast food If you really balling, mommy cop Chinese food If you really wonder why these people got issues Cause the rent owed and the f**ing lights due On her knees at night, pray a miracle come through Daddy shooting Craps, tryna win a pair of shoes I been growing my hair 'bout to let mommy twist it Out wilding with my friends, even got myself a biscuit Homie momma smoking with nothing to lose Now he stashing cracks in some hundred dollar shoes Sitting at his crib, smoking Swishers, getting faded Told me hit my mommy up, cause he tryna get braided What we gon' do see the local dope man See if he can put some money in our hand Same one jump me, the same one front me Cause I'm tired of seeing my family f**ed up and hungry [Bridge] Now I'm in the trap and the devil ain't forgetting Wanna see a n***a dead or locked in a prison In the system with division only thing that add up f**ed up n***a tryna get a couple bucks Now I'm trapped in the trap and the devil ain't forgetting Wanna see a n***a dead or locked in a prison In the system with division only thing that add up f**ed up cause a n***a tryna get a couple bucks [Break] 25 bucks, momma braid your hair Sit on the porch, she'll do it on the stairs Grew your hair out and you wanna get it twisted Fed us many nights, n***a, that's how we was living 25 bucks, momma braid your hair Sit on the porch, she'll do it on the stairs Grew your hair out and you wanna get it twisted Fed us many nights, n***a, that's how we was living
