It all started from apartment... 301
In Bonnieview, when it was only me my sister and moms
I learned the game through my rights and my wrongs, trying to make right all my wrongs
I find serenity in righting my wrongs
Been through it all and gotta long way to go, I just sharpen my flow
I'm bout to blow dogg trust me i know
Since a youngin' turned my dreams to my goals, my world cold
I remember it was nights I had to sleep in my coat
I made a wave ain't no sinking my boat, yeah i'm floating now
Changing lanes in streets that i'm on, yeah i'm coasting now
Anytime you living the fast life ain't no slowing down
Trying to make the latter my past life, i'm focused now
Ain't nobody give me a hand like they was holding out
But thats what really made me a man now I don't worry 'bout
Ever having one to depend on, i fell like i been on
And now its like I already been won
I can really feel the tension around me...
Just trying to make sense what's around me...
Before my troubles fence me in and surround me
Loyalty, that's all I need all around me
Everybody say they real to your face, but when your back is turned
You turn back around and they'll kill you today
If it's love why conceal it with hate, just keep it real
Because the coolest ones around seem to die everyday
Free my man's Kyle locked in them gates
We been tight since elementary, I just talked to your mama today
An opportunity or honest mistake? I don't judge you
But these judges making cake taking our freedom away
In the streets it's getting worse everyday
My young dogg carry guns to school to grab his homework everyday
Sometimes I miss going to church everyday, it's like i'm losing my way
And my escape is in the booth where I stay
I can really feel the tension around me
Just trying to make sense whats around me
Before my troubles fence me in and surround me
Loyalty, that's all I need all around me
Yo, it's real...I'm just trying to keep this evil from 'round me
I can really feel the tension around me...
Just trying to make sense what's around me...
Before my troubles fence me in and surround me
Loyalty, that's all I need all around me
I can really feel the tension around me...
Just trying to make sense what's around me...
Before my troubles fence me in and surround me
Loyalty, that's all I need all around me
