Die in the Streets

Tryna turn a dime into five nickels, tryna get my mind bigger
From the Nat to the top nigga, yeah I'm from the streets but I can't die in them nah
Tryna turn a dime into five nickels, tryna get my mind bigger
From the Nat to the top nigga, yeah I'm from the streets but I can't die in them nah
Never broke in houses never kicked in doors
Knew this world was crazy since a ten year old
R.I.P. to Dee, I hate to see him go all this crazy shit'll make a nigga cold cause I'm
Tryna turn a dime into five nickels, tryna get my mind bigger
From the Nat to the top nigga
Yeah I'm from the streets but I can't die in them nah hah

Nigga grew up on the Nat that's my habitat
Shed tears thought I wouldn't get my daddy back
Too many niggas getting locked up back to back
No OG's so the young niggas rat-a-tat
How the hell you was a king now you in the slums?
Nigga you the bank so how are they swiping your funds
Young nigga nineteen as real as they come
Leader of the new school, the future to come
A young nigga moving up I'm through the cut
A young nigga turned to God, now I'm Buddha cousin
Drip way too retarded now I'm stupid flooding
A nigga stars lined up, I'm reading through the numbers
Reading through the numbers oh he done blew his budget
Went to the block and told his homies that it's strength in numbers
They don't give a fuck cause they thuggin' until they kick the bucket
But I had to leave bruh fuck it cause a young nigga

Tryna turn a dime into five nickels, tryna get my mind bigger
From the Nat to the top nigga, yeah I'm from the streets but I can't die in them nah
Tryna turn a dime into five nickels, tryna get my mind bigger
From the Nat to the top nigga, yeah I'm from the streets but I can't die in them nah
Never broke in houses never kicked in doors
Knew this world was crazy since a ten year old
R.I.P. to Dee, I hate to see him go all this crazy shit'll make a nigga cold cause I'm
Tryna turn a dime into five nickels, tryna get my mind bigger
From the Nat to the top nigga, yeah I'm from the streets but I can't die in them nah hah

Snakes in the grass I'm allergic to the pythons
Streets ain't safe after dark keep the lights on
Fell from the gates and now I gotta get my Mike on
Young nigga really going in 'til his life gone
It ain't hit me that I'm bout to blow up like a car bomb
Meanwhile I'm hanging with niggas who want my lifeline
Grew up in a city with no feelings and bad morals
How is it that I'm able to come out with my right mind?
Look around and everybody say it's my time
Can't believe I'm bout to making paper to write rhymes
Niggas from your own hood wanna see you fail
When you hot you like the nigga on TV but you don't like mine?
It's all good I done dealt with plenty hating ass niggas
Mad at me cause you can't ass niggas
Yeah my bag pretty old but my same bag bigger
You thought I took a loss until I came back winning cause I'm

Tryna turn a dime into five nickels, tryna get my mind bigger
From the Nat to the top nigga, yeah I'm from the streets but I can't die in them nah
Tryna turn a dime into five nickels, tryna get my mind bigger
From the Nat to the top nigga, yeah I'm from the streets but I can't die in them nah
Never broke in houses never kicked in doors
Knew this world was crazy since a ten year old
R.I.P. to Dee, I hate to see him go all this crazy shit'll make a nigga cold cause I'm
Tryna turn a dime into five nickels (Yeah) tryna get my mind bigger (Mind bigger)
From the Nat to the top nigga (Top nigga)
Yeah I'm from the streets but I can't die in them nah hah

Knew this life was crazy since a lil nigga, if you ever snaked me I forgive you nigga
Grown up a lil seen the bigger picture if if you bout that money Imma get it witcha
No rehearsal just a give and go, no one's perfect, I'm the pinnacle
Don't let 'em hurt you, it'll kill you slow this shit'll curse you little did you know
The future Kicks is probably smiling now, nigga we styling now
Tryna take my people from these violent towns, 'til it's peace and loving on a island now
Need some guidance now get it out the mud
Take the hate up out it, bring it back to love
Progressive rapping what we lacking
Cuz from the North to South my nigga Tazz what's up?

Tryna turn a dime into five nickels, tryna get my mind bigger
From the Nat to the top nigga, yeah I'm from the streets but I can't die in them nah
Tryna turn a dime into five nickels, tryna get my mind bigger
From the Nat to the top nigga, yeah I'm from the streets but I can't die in them nah
Never broke in houses never kicked in doors
Knew this world was crazy since a ten year old
R.I.P. to Dee, I hate to see him go all this crazy shit'll make a nigga cold cause I'm
Tryna turn a dime into five nickels (Yeah) tryna get my mind bigger (Mind bigger)
From the Nat to the top nigga (Top nigga)
Yeah I'm from the streets but I can't die in them nah hah
