State Property - Been Down Too Long lyrics

This is my story, Oschino n***a f**in' early You've been down too long You've been holdin' on Wake up dreamer You've been down too long Muthaf**as say that I'm foolish To sell crack, dropped out of school And was pushin' that buick, wasn't f**in' with music And my pockets was low, my mind wasn't right My sh** was in shambles, life was a gamble No friends, just my 38 snub with tape on the handle No lights, just to eat we had to see with a candle Through the trials and tribulations, I forged Satan No heat, had to sleep in the cold, I was runnin' out of patience Dad's dead, d** had momma Judge sentenced me with no comma Oh bring drama like Osama Bin Laden In the kitchen choppin' and baggin', the crumb Coppin' the wagon, this is real sh** n***a not braggin' Where I'm from n***az'll shoot at you Not bein' in jail, somethin' new to you Can't die, who'll pay for your funeral? Life is unusual, went from nothin' to wearin' Cartaire watches with the Roman numerals n***a You've been down too long You've been holdin on Wake up dreamer You've been down too long Walk with me y'all, from prison to prison, jail to jail Two years straight, a n***a just survived off mail You know, n***az hated me, bullets penetrated me Cops infotrated me, f** you n***az say to me I'm not on tour, I got to smother the strip Underdog, my face ain't graced the cover of sh** Been down too long like Mandela with apartheid Slave with this cotton, I was raised with this glock'n 'Bout to start poppin' like ozone to turbo n***az can't hurt oh, oh sh** blazin' Oh been in hospital beds, been in cages Oh got bullet wounds, stab wounds, abrasions Multiple contusions, the boy not losin' The boy don't complain, he just keep it movin' The boy can't quit, he came to far with the music You think you like me n***a, I find that sh** amusing You've been down too long You've been holdin on Wake up dreamer You've been down too long I'ma tell you why it was f**ed up It was f**ed up 'cause I had to hustle No clown, but forced to juggle Concrete jungle, skinny n***a no muscles Quick to bust you like acne on faces of adolescence k**ed n***az in front of n***az just to send a message Infra red circle you knot, rubber bands circled in knots 20 inches circle the drops, begets circle the watch n***az in my circle successful, we the ROC We won't stop until every building collapse Or until we can't rap 'cause our lunges collapse Mean time lickin' shots like they stamps My dope all you like are [Incomprehensible] Since I was semen in the sack, leanin' in the Ac I been 'bout it co*k s**er, you feel me? Do not step to me, I'm awkward I shot lefty And often my glock's testy, put you on ice like Gretzky With no skates, just a suit and a casket Family and friends, flowers and pastor It's the ROC you ba*tards You've been down too long You've been holdin on Wake up dreamer You've been down too long
