Joey Bada$$
The Blocks*
[Lyrics from Snippet]

[Intro]
Alright, yeah

[Verse]
Time waits for no man, life is but a two-step slow jam
Dancin' with the Devil, tryin' not to lose my balance
God bless the kid with many talents, he was chosen
Why you see him livin' in the moment
Every second, gotta own it
'Cause you never know when can be your last
Time bleedin', now you bleedin' from the gun blast
And you thinkin' 'bout your past
See your whole life in a flash, best friends lowerin' your casket
Now your son a bastard
Pressure on his shoulders make him gotta grow faster
Where I'm from, the story never end with no happy ever afters, uh
Just broken families forced to start new chapters
A natural disaster
Cycle in the loop and we caught up in the rapture
Not to mention all the other factors
Government agendas against rappers
They wanna see us either dead or captured

[Chorus]
So we hold our head high, 'til they put us below
No restin' 'til the day we die, we gon' keep this heat close
This is for my n***as who took a day to relax
Huggin' the blocks but, the block ain't hug us back
So I keep my head high, 'til they put me below
No restin' 'til the day we die, I'mma keep this heat close
This is for my n***as who took a day to relax
Huggin' the blocks but, the blocks ain't hug us back
