[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
