[Intro] we're trapped , we're lost , how much it cost to be the boss?

[Verse 1:Esg]
They decapitated our minds, captivated our souls , this is the story that was untold. About a little boy that carried a pole and sold dope from his threshold, hold it , it sold it but never smoked it? have you ever inhaled so much that you couldn't hold it ? have you ever been in jail with no bail? Hell yeah you took that L. Trapped inside a cage but somehow these bars set me free. In a dark place trying to distinguish love from vanity. mama please , promise , can't you see , your little boy has grown up and hes not what you thought hed be, but so what you made and my daddy helped by bussing that nut. And Im not a gun clapper or a dope slanger mama Im a rapper and I was sober when I wrote this so you know the flow is not drug induced, they can't do it physically so they try to hang me with that mental noose, and this is not me this was generated from my roots. But now its time to choose Love or vanity? fuck it I just want my sanity

[outro] We're free , we found the way , And it didn't cost a thing
