Verse 2: (HAKIM)
I know this girl on a Drift, she just want to find love, a few dudes did her dirty, almost got knocked up, keep the rape on the low, keep your pain on the hush, but you got a new one, even though he locked up, you went and got his name tatted, you even smuggled in drugs, ain't no turning back now, now you gotta deep cut, when it rains it pours, you even closed doors, parents in the blind, they can't help with the war, he married with a kid, but you don't pay that mind, you know the stakes at risk, but you'll soon pay the fine, the life of young reckless never gets accepted on this road, and when you finally reach the end your greeted with a heavy toll...
