My pops had told me and my bro to be home by 3:30
It's like 2:40 we not even on our way back
His friends are older but I go wherever they at
I blend right in I'm like a needle in a haystack
I peep they lingo and I say whatever they say
I hate whoever they hate
Watching my brother beat niggas ass for whatever the case
I never question those things, I let it happen
Egging him on 'cause he did whatever it takes
To keep his lil brother safe
Make sure his lil brother ate
Not sure where he got cash from
But I'm about to smash some
Barbecue corn nuts
Losing track of time, not thinking bout how my pops warned us
We check and then sure enough
It's 3:28
We know we about to be late
But we ain't have much a house to come home to anyway
So we running from security and our own insecurities
And everything I can't say. Bottled up. Killing me
If you like it then I love it
Let's hang around town and just try to become something
The sun going down, close my eyes and run from it
I run from it. I run from it. I run from it
If you like it then I love it
Let's hang around town 'cause we both come from nothing
The sun going down close my eyes and run from it
I run from it. I run from it. I run from it
My pops had told me and my bro to be home by 3:30
It's 3:45 and we still outside
Hanging out with Justin and them nowhere near that green line
I could hear my father yelling in the back of my mind
I push it aside, I can't afford to feel butterflies
'Cause these niggas be on bullshit when the temperature rise
And I know all took for drama was the flip of a dime
Saw this nigga walking towards us with revenge in his eyes
Then I heard him say to Justin he was throwing down the set
Talking crazy on the daily and was sick of disrespect
'Fore I know it there was Justin, blood leaking from his head
Justin body lay before me how the f*ck could I forget
Feeling powerless, guess we just one in the same
A garden flowerless. Knowing these roots never change
We not running from the enemy
We running from the memory
And everything I can't say. Bottled up. Killing me
If you like it then I love it
Let's hang around town and just try to become something
The sun going down, close my eyes and run from it
I run from it. I run from it. I run from it
If you like it then I love it
Let's hang around town 'cause we both come from nothing
The sun going down close my eyes and run from it
I run from it. I run from it. I run from it
