Had to be four of them against the one that was me
Thought we was getting food at a spot that's Chinese
Lured me to an alley, try to beat me to my knees
But I punched my way out, to the streets did I flee
Sprinting down Allen, try to make it to the hood
Where my family stand tall, and where shit's all good
Wela saying I need prayers, go to church I should
But my head is hard wood, and on the steps I stood
Look at this idol so engraven, I can't be that cat
Do my praying on my lonely, he know where I'm at
But I carry so much pain that I can't go back
Fought them all one on one, 'til their teeth had gaps
You already know the deal, real lyrics is the drill
Pour my life into strife, from the strife do I write
I write upon the mic, bringing light to the night
Many ways to spend days, cheating death is the life
The mind fails to hold what the soul can't control
So I roll through the cold as the winter unfolds
Skin splinter when the wind blows
I'm in the window puffing endo with like 10 bros, yo
Hint of sticky in the air back when mickey's was the beer
I swear, I can travel back years with no cares
Like damn, you ever wonder? You ever blunder?
Hell yeah, but survivors always seem to beat the under
Beat six feet but we're six deep, four of us fell off
But I got quick feet I saw that shit was off
Called it out from 6th Street back to Pitt Street
This street shit will make you mince meat in a quick beat
We was down to two, but life change as it do
It's down to me, in the lab with the beat
Looking back never served the man that I rather be
So let the hook sing apologies that matter to me, I'm sorry
