One? (feat. Shayhan)

Guns blastin', Mama askin' what the reason The youth fallin' like the autumn leaves off the trees and it's treason When a little truth get to speakin' All they care about is gettin' faded on the weekend I said the money be deceivin' Name brand everything Poison for the preachin' The youth come alive when the Devil get to speakin' The revolution bleedin' And all I really have is one question Were we meant, to live this way All I needed Were we meant to live this way All I really have is one question Black on black, black mask, with a black tee Black flag hangin' outta my jeans What a black masterpiece I gotta Black gat to help me past these bad dreams Family full of drug pushers, killers, dealers, crack fiends, catch me On the block where they pop the rock and they flee No pops to call the shots or teach me how life ought to be But check it I'm feelin' stressed, I think I'm 'bout to blow my brain out Pockets hella stretched, I'm takin' bets on when they fade out Hold it, my body's frozen, heart's stolen I want so much money now that I wouldn't know how to fold it Do you know about being hungry my dude Walkin' up to the dinner table, hopin' you have so food I told myself, I'd have some wealth as a child Because I couldn't get it then, so I gotta go get it now, so it's Jump right off the couch And spark a blunt up in my mouth And bag my ass another ounce And then I'm rolling out the house Creepin' Down an alleyway, this is far from the valley man Seen a man with a watch in the dark This could end badly, K Watch sparkled in the streetlight As I approached, I intend to show him street life Ran up behind him, and said, "If you want your life you better listen "I want your watch, your rocks, and your wallet, pay attention And do not try no business so I do not want no hiccups" His body went solid, started reachin' for his hip So I went to cock the rocket, blasted off like half a clip, and then I dipped Running Steps loud echos of sirens surround me like hostile whispers in my mind Who are you Why are you here There's no place for you in society if you reject fear All my life my kind demise been televised They sell the Lies with corporate sponsors lyin' in their wings Yet I don't know why a caged bird sings, but I know why the lion doesn't walk so I'm running Even if it's away from All I love All I know All I am From Being a man Or a part of their plan The harder I ran The better I felt Even if it wasn't myself I was focused on Fleeing the beast I didn't stop to See if they were leading me to Something wicked this way coming Eyes backward, but moving forward Just keep running
