[00:01.106]You give me hope, girl

[00:27.192]They never showed me a Black god, only a trap god
[00:31.245]Wanted some zapp, so after my last job I started to crack cards
[00:34.218]I can adapt dawg, I can dodge an attack, I can attach parts
[00:37.984]Good kid in the city but raised in the mad parts
[00:41.457]My blood on the asphalt, my brother was half out
[00:44.154]I told him what happened, he ready to crash out, my mama had passed out, yeah
[00:47.911]Too woke to know what awake meant, I made it out of the basement
[00:51.667]Too broke to know what a break meant, but not enough to do a break in
[00:55.140]Still I don't take shit, 'cause sometimes it was nigga with glistening golds
[00:58.655]That I seen out here kickin' in doors
[01:00.254]That I seen out here risking they soul
[01:01.861]Is it Earth or Hell? I can't tell
[01:04.019]My niggas loadin' up K shells
[01:05.599]Thinkin' of holdin' up a shell, I know that idea won't age well
[01:09.064]Not good at acting my age well, from age twelve, up to grade twelve
[01:12.552]Every reason to hate twelve, came apparent to me like a daycare
[01:15.504][Chorus]

[01:43.141]Oh, baby
[01:48.798][Verse 2]
[01:49.611]They want me to pray to the most high, to me that's a crackhead
[01:52.838]In the city with closed eyes, a city with no god, impending the nosedive
[01:56.625]Spinnin' the block and spendin' a long time pretending I don't cry
[01:59.899]I be tellin' a lie the day I tell you I don't lie
[02:04.237]My mom on the phone line, remind me to tell you when I make it home now
[02:07.701]I'm reachin' my goals now, the notes in my phone resemble a gold mine
[02:11.159]I'm here on my own now, I thought a few G.O.A.T.s would reach out and show how
[02:14.667]To maneuver the game, but it feel like they goal is keepin' us closed out
[02:17.870]Keep it on me, for sure, it ain't for show, it show
[02:21.378]It's gon' be the last shit you see before a side of me they never seen before
[02:24.645]Keep the heat in the heat, the cold, the rain, the sleet, the snow
[02:27.863]Delete a foe, impose defeat, and fold him, he never been on the street before
[02:31.385]Chew before I swallow fruitful knowledge that I seek
[02:34.878]Shooter by the car door, he like Cardo giving wings
[02:38.108]Put that gun on you like barcodes if his car get low on cream
[02:41.311]Nigga we all gon' go out one day make no difference if it's today
[02:45.049]I know my dog is steppin' on shit, if he don't get caught he never gon' quit
[02:50.676]I know that fire been wettin' up shit
[02:52.302]Them boy won't try they catchin' on quick
[02:54.164]Them hoes gon' slime they settin' up licks
[02:55.774]I know they fine, they settin' up hits
[02:57.369]I know my mind been settin' up tricks
[02:59.236]Yeah
[02:59.784]I been practicing pushin' my brain
[03:02.198]You start changin' the way that you look at shit, then the shit you start lookin' at change
[03:05.668]Now you lookin' at change
[03:06.738][Chorus]
[03:07.294]I'm forever original nine gang, you can tell by the nine chain
[03:09.942]Who gon be here when the time change?
[03:12.078]Who gon' be here when my mind change?
[03:13.443][Outro]
[03:15.306]Oh, baby
