[Verse 1: Rome Streetz]
Always felt that love was fake, but it was hard to differentiate
Told me you would hold me down, it turns out you a pennyweight
Nine times a goofy, you a food for the tempered steak
Look in the mirror, I see somebody starin' but don't know who
The voices in my head said it's a bolder much colder you
The windows to our souls a dark hole that I hope to view
Try to find a light somewhere in there and get closer to
How you really feel
Sometimes this life should get me sick to weave my Benadryl
But I'm numb now
Go on your social media, watch me get gunned down
Sergeant said that I had the strap, it wasn't one found
So many names to name
Pain we had to soak up and charge to the game that I'm tired of playin'
You design your life, it could be tie-dye or plain
What you want, the title, or the name?
The coins, or the change?
It's a difference, my girl said that I'm distant
On the edge holdin' my grip, the shit that I been through made me different
I don't see it though
Nervous police behind my vehicle
No matter what I did it could be me or you
Life or death, from the mud I walked with righteous steps
N***as ain't real right, they bloodsuckers tryna bite your neck
[Verse 2: Ransom]
Even though we came from the same gutters
Walking around, schemin' on BMXs with chain cutters
My little man, no need for you to weigh in brother
Bullies in this game, everyone who whispers our name stutters
Only the real relate, you into real estate?
I'm in the real estates, travel the west wing of the house for dinner dates
I'm feeling great, now what you would think when you think of sinner's fate
You probably thinkin' funerals, coffins, torture, and prison gates
But then this kid escaped, turned into a man with morals
Pay me no mind, if you blind it's fine if you can't afford to
Some n***as actually get upset when they can't extort you
Your mistake was thinking that Ran was cordial
Your plan was awful, I'm a damaged corporal
I seen a lot of wars, you swim with the sharks but I think I plan to snorkel
Just watch them n***as that's next to you
Some n***as give you ideas that they couldn't execute
Life's a gamble, don't be a side bettor
You cuttin' corners on corners, thinkin' that shit'll fly - never
I scribe letters that revive treasures
You play the box, I think outside of the box to see who's inside better
Yeah, this shit be clearer than chlorine
Beautiful like a song from the soundtrack off of Claudine
