[Verse 1]
Appa said, "My boy, you gonna make me proud?"
I said, "I DON'T KNOW!"
He said, "This life ain't nothing to toy with now
Do it loud, fuck what all these motherfuckers saying
Everybody think it's unfair, blame you for they pain"
Amma said, "My baby, what you wanna do before you're dead?"
I said, "YELL AT PEOPLE!" She said, "If you love it, go ahead"
Keep you fed, stay away from trouble, stay away from rats
Keep your mouth shut when you aren't dropping hella raps"

[Chorus]
Stay in the dark, go with the flow like a shark
If he talking' out his bottom like a shart
He a NARC, choppa fart, choppa spark!
Like a lighter, in your heart, make you part
I'm a fighter, you a mark, you a mark, you a--

[Verse 2]
.45-70 Government round
Shorty thighs heavenly, rubbered it down
Definitely pound, SOCOM ammo
Blow some gas like a smoke bomb, camo
Growing' up, growing' up, "Don't Tread on Me"
My n***as tryna call me, but I keep bitches around me
"Don't Tread on Me," my father thinks that I'm a commie
And I don't believe in God because how could anything love me?
Lovely, sittin' in a cell, the people shoved me, they adore me
But they don't know about the n***as that came before me (I ain't first)
The first video I made, the kid who paid me in the dirt
It's a curse, found out late in LA on the 21st
"That boy missing, he in prison?" "Worse, he lyin' in a hearse!"
And I quote, "We ain't snatchin' just a purse, all you n***as wearin' skirts!"
"Let it burst like my verse, hope you can't afford a nurse
So perverse, I'll disperse you, and there ain't no reverse"
No inverse, puttin' n***as onto shirts, where it hurts
In the dark that you create you get immersed
[Chorus]
Stay in the dark, go with the flow like a shark
If he talking' out his bottom like a shart
He a NARC, choppa fart, choppa spark!
Like a lighter, in your heart, make you part
I'm a fighter, I am dark, I am dark, I am--

[Outro]
[Laughter followed by coughing]
