[Verse 1: MIKE]
I ain't even tryna get close to y'all
I know a lot of homies swearing that they know it all
N***as running till the totem fall
I've grown quick, n***as matches I'm supposed to crawl
My older brother need the check, he hit the pin like he a bowling ball
To keep it real mama, money threw my focus off
Still with them dirty cackies, dated in the overalls
Told these n***as "Overall, sLUms was the most involved"
Thumb in the potion draw, deep in the McDonalds
We ain't turn the motor off
Gs I confess under, I ain't even know the talk
I know a lot of n***as loathе there
Waiting for them doors to brеak open
I seen mice make a snake out my old friends
I seen the light, sleep in shade where my hope is
I know Christ in the shape, when he hates it, he love it
When life this ugly, you can't make pretty of it
You still clashing with the bottom even though you stay above it
I can see how stressed changed me
N***as need to understand we ain't on the same speed
Different blocks but it's feeling like the same streets
Different blocks but it's feeling like the same
[Verse 2: Medhane]
Different blocks but it's feeling like the same street
Used to let my pain speak
Write it, let my veins bleed
Let my vices chase me
On the road for eight weeks, now I'm on that fly shit
I ain't talking BET's, we on different timing
Breakfast in my pockets, used to drop it on the dubsteps
Now I'm saving pennies for the rainy days and rough patches
Tripping off my dumb habits
Still getting to the check while ducking up madness
But, all I see is what's around me
So how the fuck I keep a smile when it's cloudy?
OG told "Speak soft, walk loudly"
So I speak soft, walk loudly
[Outro: Medhane]
Ayyy, ayyy, ayy ("Speak soft, walk loudly")
