Battlefield Video (MV)

Uh-huh
Yeah, uh-huh
Uh-huh
Yeah
It's goin' down
Uh-huh
Yeah, uh-huh
Yeah
Uh-huh
Yeah
It's goin' down, let's go

Daddy was a twin, whipped a Caddy and a Benz
Mama was adopted, finished college in the pen' (right)
Death before dishonor, we was taught as little shrimp (yeah)
And I was only six when I lost the innocence
When I grow up, oh, how I want to learn to roll a spliff (right)
And not the kind that runs like my mind when it drifts (gone)
Remember when you used to hit my line on a whim?
I forward to VM, you go and sing a hymn (word)
When a liver gets sick and there's nothing they can fix
And your heart begins to thaw from years being frostbit (crazy)
And the only thing you want is the one for forgiveness
But ain't we all tryna figure shit we witness?
The summer that we miss, but still gon' ride the whips
Rims got my tires rubbin' like sunscreen on your bitch
And it's dark as the eclipse and they got the vaccine
But gon' make you wait for it, so go get your paper, kid

You know I'll support you and there's nobody else for you
Standin' in the middle of a battlefield
I had to pick a side or be a victim of the tragedy of time, yeah
Who knows? Maybe when it's all over, I can hand the torch over
Standin' in the middle of a battlefield
I had to pick a side or be a victim, yes, it happens all the time, yeah

God, gave me the strength (what?)
'Cause now that I'm a man, my focus and interest (whoa)
Is puttin' out these fires I started in '06 (what else?)
Prayin' that the ghost of my past stay distant (what?)
And knowin' that the cards in my hands is goldfish
I'll call it quits when y'all get off the dick
If we all can't ball then what's the point of it? (What?)
Money gettin' long, I'm savin' up for the kids
Always knew that I would be big as a clock, sister
Who would ever think that we'd find a hole in the system?
Remedy all the symptoms
Got a long list of some things that I gotta get to
But if I don't (what?), Just know it was all meant to (be)
But we far from the endin'
And I can't leave before the Dodger's win a pendant
She got a weave that's strong enough for the grippin'
But I can't see us goin' all nine endings (go long)
Out of the park (fast ball, outta here)
Told 'em from the start, we takin' no shorts
They gon' remember if nothin' else that a nigga was long-winded
And we live from the enterprise (yeah)
Where you get signed or have to improvise (yeah)
Got me a bag and then I realized
Didn't need no cash to make me feel alive

You know I'll support you and there's nobody else for you
Standin' in the middle of a battlefield
I had to pick a side or be a victim of the tragedy of time, yeah
Who knows? Maybe when it's all over, I can hand the torch over
Standin' in the middle of a battlefield
I had to pick a side or be a victim, yes, it happens all the time, yeah
