Heart of the Projects

Shit, I'm stuck right now, I'm on my back right now

And right there I see you, fucked up and shit

You know, heart problems, surgery and shit

On the oxygen and shit

This temptation shit is crazy though, man

Hey, shut up and take that deep knee

I'm the heart of the projects, hope I don't stroke

Over here we live in poverty, everybody broke

Over here it ain't no comedy, no, it ain't no joke

We just just tryna make it out of here, they're hangin' us from ropes

Never choke, young **** sellin' dope

Young **** smokin' pokes

Kickin' doors, jump right out the post

Ready to cut your throat, ready to let 'em go

Project baby, youngin' on a stroll

Sellin' coke, stressin', man we poor

Doctor, check my throat

In this cold world, it's an icebox where my heart beat

I'm the last hope for my hood, I'm they heartbeat

I ain't tryna flatline, they won't live without me

Golden Acre boy, free my **** Craig Roundtree

And **** playin' me dirty

Bitches playin' me dirty

Your **** and your bitches, they will leave you hurtin'

I just want a better life, I know I deserve it

The hood on life support and it's real urgent

And I'm fucked up bad, I need a real surgeon

Why they do your boy bad?

I'm a good person

I'm the one who gon' ride out like a derby

If you my ****, I'ma slide out with you lurkin'

Diagnosis, paranoia, I be gettin' nervous

Had to wait the fourth quarter, I ain't have a jersey

**** dyin' every day, can't behave theyself

Before you jump off the porch, ****, take a step

I was just a lil' boy, I had to raise myself

I was movin' too fast, had to pace myself

Paper chasin' for the cash, trying to race myself

You know a **** like to spaz, had to take a breath

Sometimes I think I'm too much for myself

And I done caused a lot of hurt to my health

It'll make a **** cry, all the pain I felt

While everybody fold up, I remain myself

I'm the heart of the projects, hope I don't stroke

Over here we live in poverty, everybody broke

Over here it ain't no comedy, no, it ain't no joke

We just just tryna make it out of here, they're hangin' us from ropes

Never choke, young **** sellin' dope

Young **** smokin' pokes

Kickin' doors, jump right out the post

Ready to cut your throat, ready to let 'em go

Project baby, youngin' on a stroll

Sellin' coke, stressin', man we poor

Doctor, check my throat
