It's amazing this environment we was raised in
Maze Runner, stuck in mazes, the devil chases
It's amazing this environment we were raised
Just to make it, you selling out or locked in cages
It's amazing this environment we were raised in
Maze Runner, stop hoping, and start praying
It's amazing this environment we were raised in
Running mazes, this troubled life, you can't shake it
Sometimes I look at my city and be amazed
I see the people lost in it because it be a maze
Violence, Money, Addiction these be the ways
As kids we was really watching the VMA's
We went from camping trips in them sleeping bags
To friends being killed they had to sleep in bags
Good people got lost to some evil situations
But let me talk my shit and give my people motivation
Young king living good seeing a plate
On the beach with a bitch happy to be in the states
This your downfall
Say y'all kings but who crowned y'all?
You gone hear them dogs barking when the pound call
They can't stop me so I do what I want
Rock a B.L.M. shirt with my feet up at the trump
This for the culture
One in the trunk one in the holster
Ya girl had to catch her breath when I approached her
Leopard skin gold and ivory I'm a poacher
I radiate an energy that all women adore
No I'm not a Christian but be smelling like Dior
Get around flipping dimes like wishing well
Leave em and I wish em well
Give em hell hell
Sicker than a sickle cell
Felt like a dream somebody pinch me
The system it tried to lynch me
Cracked the code like Da Vinci
They want us behind bars not copping beamers and Bentley's
It's amazing this environment we was raised in
Maze Runner, Stuck in mazes, the devil chases
It's amazing this environment we were raised
Just to make it, you selling out or locked in cages
It's amazing this environment we were raised in
Maze Runner, stop hoping, and start praying
It's amazing this environment we were raised in
Running mazes, this troubled life, you can't shake it
Damn, I'm lucky just to be alive
To see 21, let alone 25
I can't even dream of 40 that'd be the greatest gift
Here you never see 40 unless it's on the hip
Summer mornings playing 2k and halo
Til they pulled 2ks gave my brother a halo
My guy seen the light, it wasn't scriptures and text
He got sent to the gate bro got hit with the tech
They say turn to Jesus he turned water to wine
But I seen, babies wine we ain't have water sometimes
I gotta make a move (Ugh)
Tired of these shoes (Ugh)
Where's the f*cking food (Ugh)
At least I got a roof (Ugh)
I'm stuck in my ways f*ck minimum wage
Grinding long nights, grinding long days
The hood is a cage I'm running these plays
Straight to the grave a nigga got played
Running round chasing girls becasue pussy was the boss of me
Now they come running I killed the cat like curiosity
I'm in the belly Of the beast and I feel like dinner
Now I'm tryna make a move, me and Dev in a sprinter
Young nigga, less fortunate but having fun
Never Crying over spilled milk because we ain't have none
