Lost Ones
Triple O
Double R
Yo you already know this ya boy
Dave East And I'm with my nigga Reggie Riches
This one right here is called Lost Ones
Only the real ones gone understand this shit
Ayo Reggie Riches
Talk to these niggas
Lost a lot of real ones
Lost a lot of real ones
Lost them to the streets
We done lost them to a system we couldn't beat
They just put us in these chains to let us know we ain't free
Cus we the real ones
Lost a lot of real ones
Lost them to the streets
We done lost them to a system we couldn't beat
They just put us in these chains to let us know we ain't free
We burning candles for the lost souls
Cus after life only lord knows
Hot tempered but this world cold
We dying young we ain't getting old
Free all my brothers who doing bids
In and out of jail since they was kids
The streets taught me this ain't how to live
My mother said there's only two ways this ends
In a cell or the morgue
Ain't no reward
Cus our lives all at war
So we roll and we pour
Gripping on the Smith & Wesson
Pull the trigger hope I don't regret it
All this pain make us so aggressive
Telling jokes hiding our depression
We made the best out of our oppression
Lost a lot of real ones
Lost a lot of real ones
Lost them to the streets
We done lost them to a system we couldn't beat
They just put us in these chains to let us know we ain't free
Cus we the real ones
Lost a lot of real ones
Lost them to the streets
We done lost them to a system we couldn't beat
They just put us in these chains to let us know we ain't free
Most of chose dollars over diplomas
But some of us chose knowledge cus our mental was older
We just crabs in a barrel we surround by vultures
You ain't tainting my thoughts staying true to my culture
And I don't call ya'll bad bitches checkmate y'all my Queens
I don't like to call y'all niggas cus y'all really just my Kings
The sky's not the limit there's no clipping our wings
And I swear its gone be different, I just put it on me
Keep your head up keep them crowns on y'all heads
I know it gets rough just be thankful you ain't dead
Cus ain't no letting up till we all reach success
So keep sending prayers cus we all gone be blessed
That's a fact though, no this not a act though
The pencil is the spinal cord I'm writing with my backbone
No crying over spilt milk no tolerance for lactose
Do this all on our own, mountain full of dreams ideas tall like plateau
Lost a lot of real ones
Lost a lot of real ones
Lost them to the streets
We done lost them to a system we couldn't beat
They just put us in these chains to let us know we ain't free
Cus we the real ones
Lost a lot of real ones
Lost them to the streets
We done lost them to a system we couldn't beat
They just put us in these chains to let us know we ain't free
Lost a lot of real ones
Lost a lot
Couldn't be
No we ain't free
We the real ones
Lost a lot
Couldn't be
Free no we ain't free
