Premonition

[Verse 1: Lute] I got a friend who little brother infatuated with guns I tell him "Watch yourself, with that you know what comes" Two shots to the lungs 'cause some young nigga thought you had it coming And I know you not the type for running AK sound off like the band drumming Quick to check a nigga if he sayin' something under his breath Two shells is left, everyday niggas dance with death I got a tone that make you one-two step You see, life's too short to be so reckless Which one? Your life or that gold necklace 'Cause niggas soul checkin' and all my life I been so patient They say, "Life is what you make it", so it's all for the taking Seen a family get evicted, had me reminiscing Yet I'm bitching about life, I should be happy I'm alive But shit, we tired of flipping fries, niggas trapping on the side Don't need no blue check, bye, to be verified I'm so solidified, they don't question my qualifications Young legend in the making, I'm tryna' be patient But no time to be waiting, I'm just feeding my baby Unemployed, no diploma, what nigga, this crazy [Chorus: Lute] Gotta be another way, aye Gotta be another way, aye Gotta be another way, aye Gotta be another way [Verse 2: Doctur Dot] All around, she gon' hold me down Long as I can make her make sounds like coyote howls When I'm in the center, outer limits, nonexistent Is you riding? Is you with it? Ain't too hard to figure out, ain't too hard to live for now Is you artificial or your art official? Only clean my messes with official tissue I'm a picky nigga, picking up on signals Crystal clear, I get the picture pissing off whoever watching Watch the minutes and the seconds keep on ticking Got a cousin in Kuwait He can't wait to see his daughter, when he left she wasn't talking Heard her sing the other day, got a cousin in Kuwait He can't wait to see his daughter, when he left she wasn't talking Heard her sing the other day [Chorus: Doctur Dot & Cam O'bi] Gotta be another way Gotta be another way Gotta be another way Gotta be another way Gotta be another way Gotta be another way Gotta be another way Gotta be another way [Verse 3: Johnny Venus] Craters on my thumbs from the lighters I spun I just stop by today to work on my lil cash flow Spit oil spills in they lanes, I'm more revealings than sayings "I'm fucking wheeling," is the phrase that pays, my nigga The free money kitty, I get it all day, my daily They heard of my city, can't tell me 'bout labor, walies The freakiest babies with labias, only debating Microwave pregnancies, we've no sense in time waiting Attention span or whatever get my dick rocked Not to mention my nigga just got slammed after fifth block So we gon' have to handle all of that when all of the tick stops And the bell rings, no hiding at the neighborhood pit stop Shit, I'm on my own, so if I make it home Know I ain't have to use my chromes, I ain't have one to own Let alone two to rub together, just a few to throw So when Judas ran up on me, gave him two boots to the throat [Chorus: Johnny Venus] Gotta be another way Gotta be another way Gotta be another way Gotta be another way Gotta be another way
