Trapped In
[Intro: REASON]
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa

[Chorus: REASON]
This for all my n***as trapped in
Caught a case, it made me back-spin
I been focused, bringing racks in
This for all my n***as trapped in
This for all my n***as trapped in
Caught a case, it made me back-spin
I been focused, bringing racks in
This for all my n***as trapped in, yay-yay

[Verse 1: REASON]
For my n***as on they own time, whoa (For my n***as on they own—)
I done ran up on a goldmine, whoa (I done ran up on a gold—)
Little Henny made me road slide, whoa (Little Henny made me road—)
'Cause I used to carry four-five, woah ('Cause I used to carry four—)
I done seen a lot, done a lot, yeah
Dogs in it, see the paws in it
Tryna make it out like a Saw victim
Bullets hit the whip and leave the car spinning
N***as still pimp the butterfly
I done fluttered high and evolved in it (Whoa)
N***as still on weird shit
Got a issue but don't never call n***as
Seen a lot of n***as fall off (Whoa)
Cut my missile like I call off (Yeah)
REASON busting, never start off
Tie 'em up and take 'em all off (Yeah)
Bigger picture, n***a, bigger picture
I been showing ass like I'm skinny-dipping
N***a, flow tighter than a penny-pincher
'Magine if I got the Henny with 'em (Wait)
'Magine if a n***a sell drugs
Yeah, I sell drugs 'cause the flow crack
'Magine I could cure the whole world with the coke flow
'Cause it's dope raps (What)
I done done a lot, seen a lot
Black skin, feelin' penalized
This what happens when I dream a lot—n***a dreams
[Chorus: REASON]
This for all my n***as trapped in
Caught a case, it made me back-spin
I been focused, bringing racks in
This for all my n***as trapped in

[Verse 2: WESTSIDE BOOGIE]
Oh, man, for my n***as on they own time, whoa (For my n***as on they own time)
Remember thugging in my profile, ayy (Remember thugging in my profile)
I rather make it with my own guys, whoa (I rather make it with my own—)
But I can't free 'em with a closed mind, like, "Oh, my"
I pray this shit that I just twisted could get me up out my shame
Slid up on my homie bitch; he ain't trip 'cause it ain't his main, ugh
Just saying, ugh
Lord, I know you see my pain; help me while I find my hopes
Love you for your sense of humor—don't tell me that my life a joke
I done hung with lions and bought the tickets from n***as woofing
I done seen the gun and just let him pull it and bit the bullet
I come from the ash of a fire past that my mind was put in
I created magic, how I got past it without me looking
Bragging ain't bracking, ugh (That shit ain't bracking)
Rap ain't just rapping
You capping, your shit elastic, ugh (Your shit elastic)
Stretching the truth 'til we factor in "shit ain't happen" (Oh, it ain't happen)
I got this feel you can't fathom, I seen some shit you can't tap in
'Cause this what happen when you—
[Chorus: REASON]
Trapped in
Caught a case, it made me back-spin
I been focused, bringing racks in
This for all my n***as trapped in
This for all my n***as trapped in
Caught a case, it made me back-spin
I been focused, bringing racks in
This for all my n***as trapped in

[Verse 3: Ab-Soul]
Man, all things fall apart, everything goes south
Homie had the most heart, he a deadbeat now
Stuck in the mud, man, we need to put the sizzurp down
Life ain't quite the picnic when the chips are down, look
Most of the n***as I pictured as winners just went away
I had to get up and make a way
I need the whole planet to know my name
Mama said, "Don't quit your day job"
I was a second from selling yay'
I needed a deal like playing cards
Made a few records with Sounwave
Who—Whoever swallowed the key to the cage that we stay in
I'll make him regurgitate it
One time, I heard I was underrated
I'd rather that than us getting raided, ayy
Anxious under investigation
I done seen a lot, n***a, done a lot
In Carson, dodging the sheriff's station
Went broke bailing my brother out, man
That's automatic
Had the semi squeezing
Or a fiend on Halloween
'Til it's a wrap like a Easter basket
My collard greens with plenty season
A Soul-ution and a REASON—there you have it
[Outro: WESTSIDE BOOGIE]
Oh, man
Oh, man
Oh, man
Oh, man
