Vic Mensa - Blazin' lyrics

[Produced by Blended Babies and Chuck Inglish] [Hook] Ain't no way I can't make it I would die before I ever let 'em take it n***a this is my life my story my pain my glory put your lighters up for me I'm blazin' My teacher told me I ain't ever gon' make it wasn't handed out sh** had to take it n***a this is my life my story my pain my glory put ya lighters up for me I'm blazin [Verse 1] Don't give a f** about critics they can s** on my di-dick tell 'em I'm breakin' they rules Doing this sh** on my own so I guess now that I'm crown I got the duty to k** it Turn this sh** up in yo iPod feel it when n***as is locked up doin' digits Pushin they way from they Civic hope that that you never forget it I got you, you my brother forever where you are put your faith in me I'm shining You can wish upon a star promise I won't let you down promise I'm gon' put it down Promise I'm gonna rep my city everytime I'm outta town I know a lot of n***as hate especially when I'm not around But when I see 'em in they face I know they ain't gon make a sound That's enough of what you know about stories of the heart How 'bout when a baby's mother sees a family ripped apart The judge done threw away the key, he was trying to feed his son There's only two things you can be: That's dead, or dumb and with a gun There's n***as dying every day it's the Chi Town home of the gun shots Where n***as try to look like Al Capone in they mug shots City where the weather gets warm and the blood drops Shot a shorty on his way home from the bus stop Some one tell me when it ends lost my mind I lost my friends All that I can think to rap about is candy-coated Benz diamonds shinin' in my chain Ice gleamin' in my ring parasites inside my brain up in the club and I make it rain Seein ghosts when I fall asleep - life is a game and it plays for keeps Drippin' away and they say you weak - voice of the dead if they even speak Sometimes I wonder what they say Would you stand and listen to that sh** or would you run away Is you really safe up in your crib or is you one away the strike will hit you any day Minutes movin' slow I pray I make it through the month of May Summers commin round too fast We still trying to get our head together of the last When they took my n***a wish woulda seen him fore he died We ain't no b**hes but when we heard that sh** you know we cried Ain't that sh** crazy, how just one moment can change me from my life Had or dreams if I was dead wonder what that sh** be like Wonder if n***as would cry wonder if they know my name Wonder if they think I'm happy, wonder if they know my pain Wonder if they think I'm lame cause I never had a hit Wonder if they talk about me then forget that I exist For the kids that I'mma bring into this world, this is my apology Your pops is headed for wrong, don't father me And for the end of this song I solemnly Swear you n***as can't stand side by side with me This ain't rap, it's highway robbery And I brought Chuck and Jay Dee for the ride with me I own this sh**, Chicago's my property Savemoney standin, no toppin me, n***a Ain't no way I can't make it I would die before I ever let em take it n***a this is my life my story my pain my glory put ya lighters up for me I'm blazin My teacher told me I ain't ever gon make it, wasn't handed out sh**, had to take it n***a this is my life my story my pain my glory put ya lighters up for me I'm blazin
