[Intro: OMB Peezy]
(What is blackice?)
Yeah, yeah, look
[Pre-Chorus: OMB Peezy]
In the back of my mind, feel like cryin', but, bitch, I'm a soldier, that's just somethin' I cannot do
I been totin' that iron, been slangin' it too, bitch, I know that you lyin', say it's just me and you
And y'all left me outside to dry, but now I'm on fire and your neck on the bottom of my shoe
They wanna kill a nigga just 'cause I'm speakin' the truth
Bitch, I'm just a real nigga, I don't know what else to do
[Chorus: OMB Peezy]
Why lie?
When I'm speakin' on my life
They still plottin' on my ice
Feel like I never get mine right
Even though I try, I try, I try
Even though I try, I try, I try
[Verse 1: OMB Peezy]
Look, I had a dream that one day I'ma become what I wanna be
I gotta keep it a hundred, it's been some timе when I was fiendin' for company
Anybody, I just needed somеone with me
Paranoid, know I need me a gun with me
You my brother if you go on a hunt with me
Scratch that, man, them niggas be wannabes
They'll go with you to show they'll slide
Can tell if you real if I look in your eyes
Got no gun in the club, throw a hook when I die
Boy, you need to pick up a book, learn a lot
I was crashin' back then, I'm just glad I'm alive
I could've been dead, I'm just glad I survived
I'll spit in your face 'fore you fuck up my vibe
And I'm in the A, swear to God I'm so high
You can lose your life 'fore anybody know why
[Interlude: OMB Peezy]
Yeah, you know
So niggas, goddamn, hit the cut
They get to sprayin'
I got my stick, shit, my first instinct get to bustin'
Know what I'm sayin'? Niggas like, "You a rapper, you ain't 'posed to be doin' that"
What the fuck you want me to do? Die?
[Pre-Chorus: OMB Peezy]
In the back of my mind, feel like cryin', but, bitch, I'm a soldier, that's just somethin' I cannot do
I been totin' that iron, been slangin' it too, bitch, I know that you lyin', say it's just me and you
And y'all left me outside to dry, but now I'm on fire and your neck on the bottom of my shoe
They wanna kill a nigga just 'cause I'm speakin' the truth
Bitch, I'm just a real nigga, I don't know what else to do
[Chorus: OMB Peezy]
Why lie?
When I'm speakin' on my life
They still plottin' on my ice
Feel like I never get mine right
Even though I try, I try, I try
Even though I try, I try, I try
[Verse 2: Killer Mike]
Ayy, we kill each other like ritual
This shit is pitiful, plus it's political
Gave us the minimal, keepin' us miserable
Additional, ignore us like we invisible
Only so long before crime irresistible
I swear to God the condition is clinical
Conditions we live in should not be permissible
Our behavior get more unpredictable
My, my
Eyes were black like Malibu, let you get wrong with me, you die, die
Your mama gon' scream and fall to her knees and look to the skies, say, "Why? Why?"
This is the sickedest, wickedest system that's ever been set up
How could you whip us and chain us and make sure we brainless, and then tell us we need to catch up?
I'm tryna get it, I mean it, let's get it, let's get it by any and every means
I'm talkin' robbin' and lootin' or gettin' my schoolin' or scammin' or even a scheme
The woke and the broke sound like a joke, tellin' my people that we should not scheme
Pussy, the line in my rhymes talkin' 'bout crime describe the American Dream
[Pre-Chorus: OMB Peezy]
In the back of my mind, feel like cryin', but, bitch, I'm a soldier, that's just somethin' I cannot do
I been totin' that iron, been slangin' it too, bitch, I know that you lyin', say it's just me and you
And y'all left me outside to dry, but now I'm on fire and your neck on the bottom of my shoe
They wanna kill a nigga just 'cause I'm speakin' the truth
Bitch, I'm just a real nigga, I don't know what else to do
[Chorus: OMB Peezy]
Why lie?
When I'm speakin' on my life
They still plottin' on my ice
Feel like I never get mine right
Even though I try, I try, I try
Even though I try, I try, I try
[Outro: OMB Peezy]
Oh, na-na, na-na, na-na
(What is blackice?)
Oh, na-na, na-na, na-na
Even though I try, I try, I try (Oh, na-na, na-na, na-na)
Even though I try, I try, I try (Oh, na-na, na-na, na-na)
