Light Switch
17 years young started bangin blood
Red banana pants saggin use to the move the drugs
I ain't talking weed man I was pushin pills
Vicodin percocets
Yo my flow was real
Couple fist fights had a thing for bustin guns
A few friends got killed some are on the run
They still in the hood but some got a job some are doing life 1 or 2 work with cops
I ain't have no life changing experience
I can't be cool with corrupt cops that kill kids
Used to cut school and rob dudes for flip phones
Stickin up stores was so cool and simple
I was a clown better yet I was embarrassed
Looking up to grown men living with they parents
Having young teens risk they life running errands
They catching gun charges and letting kids have it
I couldn't stand by and see my people hurting
I had help the youth either teaching or nursing
So I left the streets and became a person
Had to make a change I knew it b a sure thing
As a man there's certain things will haunt us
Getting locked up or even worse raising daughters
But what about little girls now without a father
We gotta send em love all we giving them is torture
I'm on some life shit
Come on get it right kid
You ain't alone in this world
Yo we right here
I ain't going out til God hit the lite switch
So when my time come
I'll be smiling just like this
Life's a long race ppl hate so we cheatin
Everything we see up on the news we believe it
I ain't frontin on the gram trynna make it look easy
I go against the odds
Just to make it it look even
My whole entire I was raised to playing defense
The streets ain't shit it's a trap so you can keep it
Tell these kids being tough is a myth
Man you don't need it
Being you is really all you can be
and you can it
These ol heads just stuck in they ways so they don't see it
It's like they gotta keep hiding the truth like what's the secret
You walk around killing ya own living type foul
But I ain't judging though
You ain't on trial
Life of a black child
All frowns no smiles
Girls getting aids cause they don't believe in lifestyle that's they whole lifestyle
It's all good ima do my part
Not a doctor or lawyer
I'm 28 with a start
I'm on some life shit
Come on get it right kid
You ain't alone in this world
Yo we right here
I ain't going out til God hit the lite switch
So when my time come
I'll be smiling just like this
Red banana pants saggin use to the move the drugs
I ain't talking weed man I was pushin pills
