Lyrics

PROVE 'EM WRONG

[Intro: J Emz]

Ayy, ayy, turn my headphones up

Gang

They told me I would

Ayy, they told me I would

They told me I'd fail in school

[Verse 1: J Emz]

Gang, ayy

They told me I would fail in school, I had to prove ’em wrong

They told me stay our ass in the trenches where you belong

See the day I went for bail, I couldn't pay the bond

Now when I walk by they smelling Louis V or Saint Laurent

Lad, them days are gone, I look to the past for the better

Sitting in that cell, I was writing a lot more than letters

Now I see ‘em pop up paper they be my form of a fetish

Invest that shit in war while I close the door and forget them

Nah I just been in the stu making fat tunes

Yeah, your boy can sing, but they know I can rap too

And all these dubs, I've been taking them in like a Vacuum

I hate seeing success without my bros, but they’ll be back soon

[Chorus: J Emz]

Oh, oh, oh

I've been in the rain for time and I still don't know why

In this state I'm tryna get out

I use drink to numb the pain and ease my mind

'Cause I done spent my whole life tryna find a way out

I've gave up too much for this shit not to pay-out

Imagine where I'd be now if I didn't stay down

[Verse 2: Spenny14]

Looking how I made it out the gutter just to be labelled a criminal

My heart turn cold standing at my mama’s funeral

Looking at my siblings like which one of us gone make it out?

Could’ve been the same, but the pain took me another route

Thinking about my people inside, it's got me burning up

But they can’t stop the clock, so when it's time, you know its earning up

Better show 'em how we living, know what life is like with all the fame

Our money's different people change, but the vision remains the same

See I got plans to put my people in a better place

Take ’em out the trenches put each one of them in real estate

Flex on all these rappers and these cops can make 'em feel a way

Drip out in design, so when they see me I just smile and wave

They made examples out my guys, locked them in prison

But the Feds still playing games so I can rethink my decisions

Countless raids and FBO's got me dodging the system

'Cause they know we fire later, returning bodies to digits (All on the gang)

[Chorus: J Emz]

Oh, oh, oh

I've been in the rain for time and I still don't know why

In this state I'm tryna get out

I use drink to numb the pain and ease my mind

'Cause I done spent my whole life tryna find a way out

I've gave up too much for this shit not to pay-out

Imagine where I'd be now if I didn't stay down

[Verse 3: Lekks14]

I'm from that 2770, caught myself a felony

Did sales up in jails, had to get that shit by any means

We different pedigrees, can't call them dogs my enemies

‘Cause on the field my opps getting dropped, that's a penalty

… beef … my youngins gon' handle it

… a few racks for some pamperin

Take these … for dinner get the candle in

My life feel like a movie get the cameras in

But I'm no hero, I'm the antagonist (I'm a villain)

I got … demons I been fighting with myself

I got music and the trap but should I hang up on the shelf?

I been talkin' to the mirror I can't trust nobody else

I been callin' up to God but actin' like I don't need help

I'm stuck in two minds, copped a few L's, now I got two 9's

10's in my DM's and you got two 5's

Smokin' on my opps, I got a new high

You know what's up wit' them, don't fuck with them

Just tuck ‘em in, that's when you say your goodnight's

Pussy
