Anti-Lilly & Phoniks
What Would You Do
[Sample]
You get the feeling that--

[Verse: Anti-Lilly]
Ay, tell me how you're living, I'm living good
Twenty-four and I done made it out my neighborhood
My brother told me when I left that hoe to stay for good
Cause over here ain't too much of that
These streets will bring you down like you a running back
Memories back when we had ran the corners
I was running back and forth between my mama
And the spots, we was giving daps to n***as we ain't know
Flipping packs, shit was so acrobatic
Ain't have no gymnastics
Just metal in case somebody acting crazy
Lord, I'm so thankful you saved me
From a life that I never wanted
I was influenced but the first time that my n***a put that chrome in my hand
I knew that I could never take the life of a man
I knew that I would have to change my life before I changed my fortunes
Started writing bars, my brother behind them bars that be closing
My only two choices, that chapter of my life, I closed it
Fell in love with this music, lets set that shit in motion
'Bout to graduate, it's sad to say some of my partners ain't
Was seventeen, new to this world, just trying to find my place
I found that God put your blessings right inside your mistakes
To make you stronger
Added muscles to help you bear the wait
A day to day, situations is gon' make you a man
Your problems ain't nothing because the world up in his hands
There ain't nothing you can't get over, boy, you gotta take a chance
If you want to advance, it's more than hope
You gotta take a stance
Just understand

[Sample]
What would you do
If you were in my shoes?
What would you do?
Oh, what would you do?
What would you do?
What would you do?
What would you do?

[Verse 2: Anti-Lilly]
Check it
Conversations with God and my mom at the same time
Called her crying, cause this shit I be going through got me down
I ain't ashamed, she told me prayers what's gon' get me out this bind
And my stress ain't ever good if I let it sit on my mind
That's good company, she said we all fall
But it's all about your recovery
Just gotta get back up, he gon' cover me
My shoulders been talking
I got some voices in my head too
Different directions, I treat this shit like a chess move
A king can only take a step at a time
We all got a different path, see your perspective ain't mine
I'm the diamond in the rough, I tell these n***as to mine (mind)
They own bullshit, no time to add your dirt onto mine
My mind state got me trying to build away from those who destroy
It's crazy how much I could change my world just through my voice
Balance all these things going on and maintain my poise
Give a choice when I thought I ain't ever had no choice
What would you do?

[Sample & Anti-Lilly]
What would you do?
Tell me, what would you do?
What would you do?
Put yourself in my shoes one time
Oh, what would you do?
Oh, what would you do?
It's nice outside, n***a

[Voicemail Outro]
It's easy, man
Where the fuck you at, man?
Been calling you all day, we got business out here in the street, man
Get off that bullshit
Hit me back
