1st verse
I never wanna see my bloodline
In them headlines
Caught up in a story about then canine's
Gangbanging over something they heard from the grapevine
Mad someone else got more of a goldmine
Or jealous cause another man caught that hemline
Which led to brimstone & tombstones
From too much moonshine
That's always the common denominator
From wintertime haters
When the lack of heat turns friends to traitors
They dissolve quicker than now a later
I thank you God for being my heavenly indicator
Some call it a woman's instinct
Cause I can figure a brother out quicker than I can clean a sink
I pray to God my lord to keep
I made it out the Army in one peace
I ain't trying to die in a shootout
At a Thanksgiving feast
Reality is a beast living next door to me
Cause the 2nd amendment is in their bedroom closet
Fully loaded under a full moon & Hailey's comet
Witnesses see everything but never have a comment
Cockadoodle doo the boys in blue in steady pursuit
Arresting Gemini's with problems more than acute
Hook (music)
Kendrick said we gone be alright
I use to think he dabbled in time travel
But we already unraveled
Like candy wrappers in front of a liquor store
Where brothers never hold open doors
Only panties they getting are the ones they tore
And that's before the liquor got poured
So forget being greeted with pleasantries
From the hood and the deputy
I'm sure you understand my sentiments
About landlords owning tenements
With chauvinistic sentiments
Making her perform on their artificial intelligence
To pay rent that's due, in lieu
To the fact it's impossible to accrue
I'm not talking about Brenda's baby
I'm talking about her grandchild
Oh yes, it's been a while
30 years to be exact
And them 90s food stamps are still intact
But it feels like time stood still, like an inverted fraction
Cause Nas just said we need to take affirmative action
Cause Life's a bitch
It ain't hard to tell, we need to represent
I'm holding one mic
And if I ruled the world
I'd tell every girl the world is yours
