Preachers saying God got us, but the devil's out
You talk about being at the bottom of the stockpile
You was giving hand-me-downs
I don't wanna hear it
I'm from the spots where they chain you down
In court for a minute
I mean, I speak for what I know, that the streets was feeling
I mean, I feel my black brothers and sisters
In truth and spirit
Nowadays, we wear suits
To hide anguish and fear
I feel my n***as that be shedding a tear
Just sitting there
You do for so much, but they stab you
That trust turned a avenue
At tabernacles, they pray to a statue
I don't give God enough of my time
Cause mines is thrown and collapsed too
All the bullshit that's at work
It leisurely comes natural
And that's not good
Knock on wood, this won't last too
In my hood, they kill for the goods
Sit back and laugh too
I'm disturbed by the past
Lot of shit had to learn fast
I've emerged from this shit, why? Cause I had to
I'm back in my bag, but I wanna take my n***as with me
The love I gained out, it was a plenty
Couldn't turn to everybody, when shit turned empty
Hate turned into envy
Fates turned deadly
This was real hefty
Word
But God got us
I heard that shit like every day
Increased with more problems
Experience taught us the same
Just with more outcomes
I'm in the middle of this game
Shit, I feel like Malcolm

Yo, I'm on the I-78, thinking about better days
Sun in my rear view, but death comes in greys
Couldn't fathom it, cause that's the only way I betray
They put your life in filing cabinets just for display
And they ask if I'm okay
I tell them why bother?
You never knew the true pain from my fallen father
You base your life on followers and your status by dollars
I could care more or less
Since all of it's gossip
I couldn't process that casket closing
On that path, had to grasp and chose it
All y'all n***as rap about is having quotients
But if you cowards actually notice it
You got a whole lot of neighbors that tax if you owe them
Are your friends really there, or they said it for sport?
You live your life on fear?
The chances are that it's short
Can't afford the remorse
I heard you live long and of course
This a street life where they kill each other
Over sodas bought
Yo, we live life on a daily basis, but still struggle
Gotta fight, just to barely make it, it's a real hustle
Only strive for the paper chasing, it's a real tussle
Gotta grind, when we can't even face it, it's all muscle
N***a
Word
But God got us
I heard that shit like every day
Increased with more problems
Experience taught us the same
Just with more outcomes
I'm in the middle of this game
Shit, I feel like Malcolm

But God got us
I heard that shit like every day
Increased with more problems
Experience taught us the same
Just with more outcomes
I'm in the middle of this game
Shit, I feel like Malcolm

**Hidden Track - You Won't Let Go (Prod. By Mean SK Beatz)**

N***a

Yeah, nah, you won't let go

No, no, yeah, you won't let go

Not at all, shorty
Uh, you won't let go

I said you won't let go

Uh, yo
I told Ash that I felt like love was non-existent
Kinda sickenin' how they do you bad, then find your competition
Now I'm distant, I lost it along with my inner visions
It's no sentiments, just scents of these women
And my sense of recognition for who was there when I was lowly
Attempted premonitions, now they beware of foes and homies
Didn't get a chance to really know me, and that's okay
Still do things when by my lonely, cause nowadays these people stray
I'm on the Delaware Water Gap, thinkin' bout shit
If you ain't love me by a scratch, why keep me all in the midst?
We grew apart because you couldn't admit
You couldn't keep me 'round, cause you had someone else's feelings all in the mix
She likes the clit and the dick, but shouts gospel all in the church
Females really are twixt, twisted outcomes still leave you hurt
All those times we conversed about my love for you
But it was fuck me for getting too comfortable
Word

Yeah, I got complacent, so you won't let go
All this time that I wasted, cause you won't let go
In my mind, I was patient, though you won't let go
It's not a rhyme, it's a statement, you won't let go

I got complacent, so you won't let go
All this time that I wasted cause you won't let go
In my mind I was patient, though you won't let go
It's not a rhyme, it's a statement, you won't let go

Nila, fuck you too
I squashed beef when dad passed
I seen right through you
You a weak and that's the fact
How you fake being sad?
Those tears on the phone, it was a fad
Something told me just to leave it in the past
Gave you gas money cause you did bad, ain't have the bag
Security guard but can't shoot with a gat
Oh and you lose? That's a wrap
Disgusted with myself, I almost had tapped
Your PH balance, that was all out of whack
You couldn't keep that on track
You fuckin' with this one and fuckin' with that
My trust in you, that I had to relax
Word
The pussy fat, but of course
The taste was a gasp of remorse
Couldn't take it, I had to come up short
Almost lost it to a whore who said I was her first
It was a lie, she knew about giving head, it was the worst
Why even try, when to you it's only beneficial?
You put disguise in front of saints, not trying to dead the issue
My debt was getting with you
Like now, I suffer and toss, with unequivocal, illiberal thoughts
We couldn't reach for the stars
I'm hoping Miss Browning, isn't that far
I pray to God that my time isn't lost
Couldn't believe it thus far
Four years that was wasted in all
There's no tears but the hate goes on
My newest fear grows strong
Based on tropes that I built for so long
You won't let go because I still hold on
Even though that it's wrong

Yeah, I got complaints and so you won't let go
All this time that I wasted cause you won't let go
In my mind I was patient though you won't let go
It's not a rhyme, it's a statement

Yeah, I got complacent, so you won't let go
All this time that I wasted, cause you won't let go
In my mind, I was patient, though you won't let go
It's not a rhyme, it's a statement, you won't let go

I got complacent, so you won't let go
All this time that I wasted cause you won't let go
In my mind I was patient, though you won't let go
It's not a rhyme, it's a statement, you won't let go
