They say Tre drop the album I said let’s do it
I had to stop myself to realize I was bout to lose it
The music was timeless I couldn’t sacrifice the movements
I had to grow like a seed water was self improvement
Lately all I see is fear and tattle tales the good shall prevail
I know ya’ll n***as read it in brail but
If you was blind, I guarantee you could feel this shits real
Through the belly of the beast, I’m in-debted deep in these streets
XXL nominated me back in 2016
The westcoast savior had held it down with these 16’s
Didn’t water down my art, I had to survive the flood
I built my own Noah’s ark and kept it real from my heart
D.lx it’s time for me just to embark my stretches
They mistake me for being quiet as being a let down
But the game needs a future OG in the making
Never mistaking to someone whose lacking confidence faking
I’m the prophet knowledge you pop oxycotton you trynna fit in with the wrong crowd
N***a this ain’t high school this is real life all I spit are these haikus
I wanna be the illest artist in this generation
But my patience lacking virtue and straight retaliation
Momma hit my cell she said the cities burnin down
Another n***a shot by police man I heard his body hit the ground
Ain’t nobody just saying shit I don’t hear a fucking sound
Man these n***as ain’t did it in my city like I ever seen
Often times I do reflect about the person I’ve become
I will live on through this music if they kill me on with a gun
So I’m never backing down go tell the block go tell the judge
We ain’t scared to lose our lives so fear is not a damn concern
Gotta stop killing all my people this a bridge I gotta burn
I’m a 1/1 don’t need no funds to fuck all of you n***as up
Look into the sun don’t see no one your values aren’t like us
The contingency had came to me with wisdom n***as scum
This is elevated rap from losing out we’d overcome
Use your fucking brain my n***a this is life not a test
Pulled the sword out the stone I’m the Hero in the flesh
I'm the Hero from the West
