[Verse 1]
Ain't it crazy how we on now, used to scrape change for a dollar
Dad used to say, "No money no power no honor", given if you had no problems
Came from the struggle like Doc come from college
I put on for my city 'cause they need that
Opportunity, my city don't see that
I look out from the look-outs
Give me that chance, I'mma flip that shit like a free pack
I don't wanna work on that minimum wage
That shit was made to keep us in our place
Tell them I'm good on that figurative cage
So icy look like I figurative skate
I try to preach to the crowd like I'm Mase
Better watch out for your girl cause she feeling it
Ate up the fake and I threw up some real in it
Hard when you come from a city of ignorance
[Pre-Hook]
They want me to sing about women cause that's what the radio plays
But fuck it, don't care if they feel it I'm doing this anyways
Got to put on for the city cause the homies still back at the crib
[Hook]
We used to talk that shit, now we live that shit, and we ain't even supposed to be rich
We from that
Bottom
(Ignorance)
Bottom
(Ignorance, ignorance, ignorance)
Bottom
(Ignorance)
And we ain't even supposed to be rich, we from that
Bottom
(Ignorance, Ignorance)
Bottom
(Ignorance, ignorance, ignorance)
Bottom
[Bridge]
And we flying now
And we flying now
And we flying now
[Verse 2]
Ain't it crazy how we on now, pockets on strong now
Remember when we used to be out wylin' saying
"We was the ones" like we should of been and "Why the fuck we out here in this long line" and
"Getting me to get a job Mom, stop trying"
Silver surfer out here looking for a silver lining
It's ignorance that kept my city crying
But this is brilliant ignorance, yeah they know about us
I put it down where your mother at
Shout out to Swiff, where my brother at
Shout out to Basquiat, glad you got out of that
Shot you for nothing and we don't want none of that
Boys' said he ran from them, shots like a running back
And put my enemies in front of that
Ate up the fake and then threw up some real in it
Hard, when you come from a city of ignorance
[Pre-Hook]
They want me to sing about women cause that's what the radio plays
But fuck it, don't care if they feel it I'm doing this anyways
Got to put on for the city cause the homies still back at the crib
[Hook]
We used to talk that shit, now we live that shit, and we ain't even supposed to be rich
We from that
Bottom
(Ignorance)
Bottom
(Ignorance, ignorance, ignorance)
Bottom
(Ignorance)
And we ain't even supposed to be rich, we from that
Bottom
(Ignorance, ignorance)
Bottom
(Ignorance, ignorance, ignorance)

[Outro]
