Woah, woah, woah

Once you cross that line, it ain't no tryin' to fix it

You want me to forgive you, let's be realistic

I can't kick it with your kind like I tore my meniscus

How you go from co-defendant to a ****in' witness?

They'll stand on couches with you but won't stand on business

Woah, I watched everybody turn on my brother like he ain't have 'em out here flyin' jets and ****in' bitches

This shit ridiculous

I feel your pain, my brudda

I know you from the struggle, I know how hard you hustled just to take care of you mother

I know you took clothes off your back for niggas you call, "Brotha"

I know how hard it get in this jungle, tryna prevail without bein' tried like you no sucker

Huh, life's a mother****er, yeah

I know ain't nobody perfect

But what's the point in makin' it out if all they do is cuff ya?

You know, we be comin' from like, the worst conditions, the worst circumstances

The trenches, the gutter

Sometimes we be forced to make decisions that we don't even want to make

It be about survival

At the end of the day, we be havin' good hearts

They just be in bad places

I guess that's life, though

Father God, forgive me for my sins

Take the mask off all my enemies that's out here actin' like my friends

Did some shit I'm prayin' I never gotta do again

I put bloodshed and tears inside this win

If I take care of my hood, the prosecutor call me Gotti

Turn my back on my hood, they prolly kill me, prolly rob me

It's a Catch-22, I'm bein' honest

Hard work, tryna keep the past behind me

I still be havin' flashbacks 'bout Johnny

Fast forward and the major label signed me

Had to hustle, had to focus, perseverance

Momma used to go to TJ Maxx and shop on clearance

Tayman and CJ, I can still feel their spirits

Skinny and Wanwan used to rap, I know they hear it

It ain't that easy, puttin' pain inside of lyrics

Send us up to Heaven so they can clear it

Y'all know like, real street niggas don't do this shit

And I don't want niggas to get misunderstood

'Cause the rules we live by, don't even matter no more

Just a, just a setback for you to come back

Can't hold a nigga down forever

Know what I'm sayin'

'Till then, we gon' hold this shit down, straight u
