What a Time (Intro)

Coming up out the trenches

Where murder becomes addictive

Hoop dreams was a theme

Watching vets smother the benches

Could of Been laid on ice

Damn near traded my rights

On a chase for the latest Nike’s

Gambled when the stakes was right

I was tryna reach new heights

Overhead feeling like a giant

Choked up off that dead beef

Almost had to hit him with the Hymnic

08 to 11 went out of state for some leverage

Punch drunk off the beverage

Crap gams became competitive

Another college kid Stuck

Emptying out his Checking’s

When the sun didn’t shine

It rained for more than a second

Campus full of goons

We surrounded then it got hectic

I had to make the call

Like yo K in need Of some weapons

He called me right back it’s no talking

When I hit that exit

Had to think twice was it worth

Taking a life

Youngins in the field who don’t wanna do right

Then there’s brothers in the can who ain’t suppose to do life

See guns come with roses

Friends turn to posers

Government given out stretchers

Exotic hearses for yo kids

Entertainment with vultures

Use the culture for show biz

Us of A got bodies in search for the lost kid

In the Morgue it’s a bundle

Dark skinned that’s lost wigs

Dark skinned just won’t live

Ppl on sick bed on six meds

Watching the family split off of shit said

Nobody wins the family feuds right

Meanwhile Who’s protecting us from blue whites

Ones that got it in arms reach

Baring arms to dodge peace
