Brick and Mortar
[Intro]
Huh, take it blood
(Blood is thicker than water)
Take it blood
(Young Shaney Jay he the plug boy)
Jah
[Chorus]
Blood is thicker than water
More than brick and that mortar
You know tomorrow ain't promised
You might not get to see more
Blood is thicker than water (Uh)
Blood is thicker than water (Uh)
Blood is thicker than water
More than brick and that mortar
You know tomorrow ain't promised
You might not get to see more
Blood is thicker than water (Uh)
Blood is thicker than water (Yeah)
[Verse 1]
(Jah)
Two parts of that blood, mixed with two parts of that water
How do you survive trauma?
Who's on the line when it's the TrueCaller?
Tortured, thought that I could go forward
The pain is more, the feeling still linger
Tryna bе sorted out and not poor but my own people want mе to hinder
It's a vicious cycle we caught up
Some children are born thugs, to numb the pain they bought drugs
Cold cases full of warm blood
Ten years still unsigned, never humbled by a tough time
Most pain doesn't subside, it's just passed down in your bloodline
Ruff ride like Jadakiss, close your eyes and make a wish
Always dreamt that I'd make it big
I was even rapping in my baby pics
On dark nights I had one mic, the Lord blessed me with sunlight
And an escape from this thug life
And I'm still the same like my blood type because
[Chorus]
Blood is thicker than water
More than brick and that mortar
You know tomorrow ain't promised
You might not get to see more
Blood is thicker than water (Uh)
Blood is thicker than water (Uh)
Blood is thicker than water
More than brick and that mortar
You know tomorrow ain't promised
You might not get to see more
Blood is thicker than water (Uh)
Blood is thicker than water (Uh)
[Verse 2]
A lot of ghosts in my photographs, nowadays I got haunting pics
Family members get double crossed, DNA isn't always thick
They'll sell you out for an autograph, limited pairs of an Jordan 6
The only one that you can trust is God
The Devil coming up with all the tricks
I grew up where the thugs live, educated by the hustlers
See the world through a bus trip, walk streets where the blood drips
Gas masks for the gun smoke, diabolical cut throat
John Doe die unknown, mafioso take a blood oath
Ride or die, no run flats
Drive-by shoot hub caps
No money for the rug rats they be stealing from the blood banks
Zombieland, it's the undead
No vacay, no club met
Just hierarchy and blood shed, rain check rivers run red
Bodies drop for the blood shots
Sounds louder than punk rock
The world's ending keep your guns cocked
Family dies that's blood loss
Money theft cause unrest
South Africa's a corrupt mess
Whichever President we trust next, needs a lie detector and a bloodtest because
[Chorus]
Blood is thicker than water
More than brick and that mortar
You know tomorrow ain't promised
You might not get to see more
Blood is thicker than water (Uh)
Blood is thicker than water (Uh)
Blood is thicker than water
More than brick and that mortar
You know tomorrow ain't promised
You might not get to see more
Blood is thicker than water (Uh)
Blood is thicker than water (Uh)
