Lyrics
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah
Aye
Never run from beef my **** was caught in
No time for college, yeah
You ain't my friend, you my brother my ****
We tied in (Tied in)
Never run from beef my **** was caught in (Was caught in)
I was caught up in the streets, no time for college
Know these hoes ain't shit if we just bein' honest
Everything don't last, like a broken promise
You ain't never been to jail, you don't know what time is
Had my back against the wall, you know I was boxed in
I'm the voice of the streets, ain't promotin' violence
Understand where I come from, you gotta understand my life
I got demons on the left of me and angels on the right
Illegal search, I beat the case
Gotta stand up on your rights
You bitch **** actin' hard
You remind me of some dykes
'Cause the streets don't love you
Hoes ain't for you (No, no)
Never had no big homies, they'll "lil' boy" you (Yeah, yeah)
Moment that you make it, they be actin' like they made you
Thank the judge for yo' time, that's the only thing that saves you
I'm just tryna bring the hope in the city where I come from
Even in the night, young **** wanna come up
Play the block overtime with the sticks 'til the sun up
It's gettin' hot, bodies droppin' in the middle of the summer
You ain't my friend, you my brother my ****
We tied in (Tied in)
Never run from beef my **** was caught in (Was caught in)
I was caught up in the streets, no time for college
Know these hoes ain't shit if we just bein' honest
Everything don't last, like a broken promise
You ain't never been to jail, you don't know what time is
Had my back against the wall, you know I was boxed in
I'm the voice of the streets, ain't promotin' violence
You know I ain't lyin'
We applyin' pressure, ****, on the opps (On the opps)
Masked down, walk ups
Aimin' at a **** top
Seen a **** sit for five years and came home great
(Came home)
Stitched lip, keep it solid
They ain't even have a case
Indictments, Fed R.I.C.O's gettin' scary (Oh)
Young **** in the mirror, I was screamin' Bloody Mary (Bloody Mary)
Shit embedded in my mind
Gangsta shit like I'm Larry
Divorced a **** for his M's
That's why these hoes, I never marry (Oh no)
Gotta practice what you preach
Keep that metal in my reach
When you take a soul ****, it be hard for you to sleep
Got this drop right now, we gon' sit on it for weeks
Bouncin' out of work vans like we 'bout to clean the streets
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Same **** you was winnin' with
They'll never send you shit (No they won't)
Only got your kids and your momma in the visit
No support when the trial came, time for the censor
Life fucked up, made decisions that I'm livin' with
You ain't my friend, you my brother my ****
We tied in (Tied in)
Never run from beef my **** was caught in (Was caught in)
I was caught up in the streets, no time for college
Know these hoes ain't shit if we just bein' honest
Everything don't last, like a broken promise
You ain't never been to jail, you don't know what time is
Had my back against the wall, you know I was boxed in
I'm the voice of the streets, ain't promotin' violence
I'm just tryna bring the hope in the city where I come from
Even in the night, young **** wanna come up (Oh)
Play the block overtime with the sticks 'til the sun up
It's gettin' hot, bodies droppin' in the middle of the summer
