[00:25.33]Look, I spent my whole life trying to improvise
[00:28.38]I'm not saying that **** for you to sympathize
[00:31.18]Spent my whole life
[00:32.47]Trying to find what's at the end of the tunnel
[00:35.27]I should have realized it was inside
[00:37.36]So lately I been trying to get what's inside outside
[00:40.25]So many people wanna see my insides outsides
[00:42.89]I'm from that city four hours east of Southside
[00:45.77]Where everyone outside, but don't **** with no outsiders
[00:48.47]Growing up, with the ones I hold it down with
[00:51.87]Whole city got my back on some photobomb ****
[00:54.11]Whole city blowing up on some old Saddam ****
[00:56.95]Before this I was the one hoes tried to go to prom with
[00:59.83]You know, take the fame, take the crib
[01:01.83]Take our cars, now we gotta take the train
[01:03.82]Hood ****** takin' chains, slave master take our names
[01:06.66]5-0 take the shot, young souls take the blame
[01:09.50]Man but they can't take away the light
[01:11.74]
[01:12.09]No matter how much they gon' shade you (no)
[01:15.32]Man they can't **** with the light

[01:52.97]Where if they know you brown, they might hold you down
[01:54.86]And even hose you down, man
[01:56.46]Since I'm a son, I feel like I gotta stunt hard
[01:59.04]I took the hand that they gave me
[02:00.54]And played the Donald Trump card
[02:02.19]And realized counting money
[02:03.47]Never feel as good as counting blessings
[02:05.06]And a loaded mind is more dangerous than a loaded weapon
[02:07.76]So when they take the fame, take the crib
[02:09.80]Take our cars, now we gotta take the train
