[Verse 1]
N***as is jealous and two faced
As soon as you show face I be
Packing my suitcase true say
I don't give a fuck what you say
Its too late its ya doomsday
Hooray to my people
Ku klux klan tryna say that
We ain't equal I see through
People and they evil corruption
Tryna get the bucks and jumping
To assumptions we all ain't like that
I just use my words and fight back
We all in the field like lab rats
Tell me how you feel about that
Cause I ain't tryna be no statistic
So somebody better fix it
Killing my brothers
In the new york district
Persistence I took the back street
Me and my boys was in sync I sit
Think and let the ink sink instant so
Fuck what you thinking you ain't
Gotta cup man tell me what you drinking
Writing this verse as I'm walking on pitkin
Kick in the door waving the four four
Sending out the real representing for
The poor still spitting hardcore
Still spitting hardcore y'all
[Chorus]
It's a war outside and
I'm just tryna stay alive
Stay alive
It's a war outside and
I'm just tryna stay alive
Stay alive

[Verse 2]
Looked up at the skyline
Seen some stars in the making
Looked into the mirror I'm the
Man in the making I'm to stay
They here today gone tomorrow
Only the real shall last and the fake
Shall past I said it's too many bitches
And way too many hoes way too many
S so n***as could borrow flows
I show you n***as different since y'all
So use to the norm stay away from that
Bullshit so my will won't get imposed
I'm way up above average these suckers
Don't wanna see me make it look hard
When it's easy stay grinding cause shit
Ain't easy been out here on my grizzly
Mike conley how I dish it anybody could
Sling work it all depends how you kick it
Lately my palm itching I'm living close to
The edge guess it's money on my mind
No bounty on my head stay true cause
Even the realist would make a fake outta
You when the chips is down the joke is
On you ha ha but laugh it up critics
I'm just getting started don't panic not to
Mention the duo been dynamic for the record
We good over here rolling good over here
Stay coolin over here I could feel it in the air
Thank my maker for a new day
Young brothers pray for that
I'm guessing this the city god want us
To make it at how that sound to see a
N***a get like this he came from that
Get my family out the struggle I know
You relate to that
[Chorus]
It's a war outside and
I'm just tryna stay alive
Stay alive
It's a war outside and
I'm just tryna stay alive
Stay alive
It's a war outside and
I'm just tryna stay alive
Stay alive
It's a war outside and
I'm just tryna stay alive
Stay alive

[Outro]
Peace and love
I need a peace of mind
Peace to all
In this piece and time
I piece these rhymes
And I speak my mind
As I search and find
What keeps me alive
Peace and love
I need a peace of mind
Peace to all
In this piece and time
I piece these rhymes
And I speak my mind
As I search and find
What keeps me alive
