The Sermon

Peace Lord
Why we ain't feeling peace Lord
Why my niggas still up in these streets Lord
Why he always stay with the heat
It's because his ribs touching and you know he got to eat Lord
Life's ups and downs you know it's like a seesaw
But drugs, penitentiaries and killings all that we saw
Sirens flashing got us feeling trapped
But if we knew what was at the top we would have something to reach for
Moms on drugs and the fathers is locked away
The only influence they had was from niggas moving the yay
What could you say to a hounding when he ain't eating nothing
The only money he made came from the streets and hustling
Plus he got siblings that he care about
So it ain't only his self he got to think about
So he set out with a mission to chase the bag but ask yourself is losing ya life worth losing all that you have
Big Bro

A L of Loud for all the times I had to roll the A
Yo bitch gone give her skates watch her roll away
The best advice I was given when I was told to pray
When a nigga need bail like it's a roll of hay
Being a sucker ain't something I'll take the roll to play
Easy said chill Maine put the poll away
Small cases no waiter but I could hold the tray
My homie keep the heater on him like it's cold today
It's really no surprise but you'll get blown away
I know some guys that let it blow if they get told to spray
If you never seen the map then how you showing the way
Tryna take my drive like a car when it get towed away
See I ain't never had shit that's why I want it all
Still catch myself waiting for my mothers call
Now I'm seeing the same visions my mother saw
This the season that winners spring but some'll fall

We act like you succeed cuz you staying afloat
Praise for looking like the plug but don't get it in bulk
Long as we getting more dough and all these bitches know
A shame to see us sold short with so much room to grow
Lighting this flame tryna choke out the pain with the smoke
Look you live just like a sheep but you claim you the goat
And paperwork got his name but you claim that's ya bro
Y'all came deep but you might just be better off alone
Used to post up right by the corner store
Youngin training to go
Had the thang in his coat
Gang gang what he quote
Told me just let him know
He around if it's smoke
See the stain he get low
Bang bang then he ghost
Shit that hurt me the most
Got halfway out the streets
Just had a baby girl
ain't been around in weeks
Being him he missed the hood just had to come and see
For clout they crept up out the cut and left them counting sheep
