[Verse 1]
Mama know that her son is a menace (Mama)
So she worry 'bout me and pray for forgiveness (Pray for me)
Tell me to watch my friends, but I never would listen (Never)
Somebody tell Capo I’ll never forgive him (Pain)
He chose a rat over me, how the fuck is he livin'? (Explain that)
I'm respected, acceptin’ I'm different (I am)
I'd be lyin' if I said I didn't notice the tension (I feel it, boy)
Before I testify, do an L in the prison
Speakin' of prison, free my n***as that's locked in the cell (Free the homies)
Took the book and they read it, refusing to tell
CEO won't pop your dog, they play with your mail
This ain’t the WWE, you know hell in a cell (This ain’t wrestlin', n***a)
Sippin’ Rémy, it make my mood right (Meech)
See, I come from hand-me-downs, remember shoes tight (I remember)
If you ever gossip 'bout me, make sure the news right (Tell the truth, n***a)
Knock your melon 'cross the room like a food fight (Boom, boom)
And my ex playin' with the opps, so the iron with me (Fuck, n***a)
Seen it on the internet, why you lyin’ to me? (That bitch lyin')
Plus my dog owe me paper, I think he hidin' from me (What the fuck, n***a?)
I'ma hold it down for God, I don't care who ridin' for me
Mama havin' dreams, she cryin' to me (Mama)
Prepared for the jungle, you know that lion in me (You know it)
Heard they want me dead, they patiently waiting
But I ain't goin' like no pussy, you fuckin' mistaken (Never ever, n***a)
[Interlude]
Yeah, Koba
Trusted Koba like brother
Caesar brother to human
Koba
[Verse 2]
Miss me with all that fuck shit
My circle got infected, I don't trust shit
Even gotta watch the same ones that I grew up with (For real)
Sayin' that I changed, hell no, I just adjusted, Koba
Since I lost my brother, I ain't been the same (Meech)
And I ain't kill his killer yet, it's drivin' me insane (I'ma get him, though)
I swear if he was home, I would've shook his brain (Hold my baby, n***a)
Like fuck the consequences, man, I'm bringin' pain (Boom, boom)
See, nowadays n***as'll kill you just to get a name (Swear to God)
But that's my bro, was bigger than a game (Meechy)
They say I show 'em how these thoughts runnin' through my brain
But for Meechy, we gon' eat him, send him to the flames
Bloody Mary, that's a Bloody Mary
Shit get real scary when I'm feelin' angry (Get real scary)
Bloody Mary, that's a Bloody Mary
Shit get real scary when I'm feelin' angry
[Interlude]
Koba
On me
Koba, boy
Koba
[Verse 3]
N***as tellin' lies, man, that's false hope
Until I pull up on your block like, "I thought so" (Skrrt)
Loyalty is everything, can't be false, no (Can't be false loyalty, no)
Can't be, hold up (Can't be)
How you gon' look me in my eyes and tell me a lie? (How?)
Where I'm from, you had to prove and you had to ride (For real)
And if they touch one of yours, man, they had to die (Boom, boom)
It might look like I'm good, I'm hurtin' inside (Pain, n***a)
Losin' your dog ain't easy (I know)
Hurt my other dog tryna sleep me (What?)
Like I wasn't solid, wasn't there when they need me (I ain't change on 'em)
Maybe I'm too rare, feelin' like a different species, Koba (Who are you, motherfucker?)
It's personal, don't wanna talk about it
Catch an opp, he tryna talk about it
Remember I used to rob n***as, run up on 'em, force 'em out it
Wish I had a helicopter, grab an opp and toss him out it (Gang, gang, gang)
Koba
[Interlude]
Human, what?
Koba
Human, what?
Human, what?
Human
[Verse 4]
Sometimes I cry, you don't see the tears (Nah)
Haven't had a good sleep in years (I swear to God)
I miss my oldest daughter first day of school (Maya)
My last bid, man, I fuckin' missed my youngest too
You won't believe the rumors when you winnin' (No)
I don't care, my first car was a lemon (Had a hoopty)
We would circle blocks so many times, my head spinnin' (Dizzy)
Bloody on camera and now an opp trending (Boom, he dead, n***a)
Hold up, they gave my right hand twenty for a sentence (Free him)
Gave J an L, he ain't even did it (Free the gang, man)
N***as tryna be friends again like they ain't burn bridges (Fuck 'em)
Same gang from the beginning, same gang I'm gon' end with
Let me get taught like
Stand-up n***a since the handshake (I swear)
Still sendin' out money, make sure my mans straight (Free the gang)
Mama don't work no more, you know I told her quit (Mama, I got you)
So if you don't think that I'm a hundred, you can suck my dick (Suck my dick, n***a)
Hit rock bottom and I panicked (I did)
When they know that you care, they take advantage (They do)
Used to look at my feet like, "How the fuck I'm still standin'?" (How?)
Last offer was thirty, I'm like, "Fuck it, man, we gamblin'" (I beat that shit, n***a)
Hold up, free Cry, they gave my homie rows (Free him)
He like my music so real, sometimes it give him chills
Yeah, yeah, wish I could really know how it feel (Wish they could)
This shit is for Jamil, this shit is for Jahlil (Meechy)
Yeah, Scoob, I ain't forget you, n***a (No)
Know every day you with me, n***a, you know I miss you, n***a (No)
Why you ain't have your pistol, n***a? (Why? Why?)
And you know we was up a body, they was spin due, n***a (Ah)
Body, body, I'm talkin' back to back (Back to back)
Back to back, n***a, like Kobe, Shaq (They don't know, n***a)
Learned that shit from you, n***a, never lack (Never lack)
That's why I keep that fuckin' strap, they gon' remember that (Boom, n***a)
Koba, only my kind matter (Never)
Chopper make a n***a spine shatter (Boom, boom, boom, boom, n***a)
I feel like Koba, cut season for a real reason
He love humans and I hear him leadin', fuck the n***a
[Outro]
You understand, Koba? They don't understand us, man
Listen, man, boy (Fuck n***a, I'ma try, n***a)
