THINK TWICE

Gotta be still while the world move around me Mom shook from the city, got a crib in the county Troops chasin' after youths, odee for a bounty Kids dyin' every day where I'm from, and it's crowded Never thought I'd need a gun, but now I'm thinking 'bout it Tried to show the lil' bro love, kicked the door to my house in Rio was only 21, knew he couldn't leave without it He kept it in his pocket And yeah, I'm a fighter, but I don't wanna fight But you could lose your life bein' a nice guy And so I take these precautions, I can't think twice 'Cause if you up that (boom, boom, boom-boom-boom) You can't think twice, can't think twice (twice) You can't think twice (twice, twice) I was like five, seen my-, grab the- from the kitchen drawer Probably nine, hearin' shots, me and mom duckin' to the floor Ten, 11, huggin' fades dolo right at my front door 13, seen life leave a body laid on our porch Got a new lease on mine, I thought I'd shake it off For sure be an optimist, but not delusional And yeah, I'm a fighter, but I don't wanna fight Still you could lose your life bein' a nice guy And so I take these precautions, I can't think twice 'Cause if you up that (boom, boom, boom-boom) You can't think twice, can't think twice (twice) You can't think twice (twice, twice)
