C.O.T.G

No luxury growing up at your own pace
From a place trauma giving young boys a stone face
Taking Care of Mom she couldn't do it herself
Tears In Her Eyes damn seeing you and herself
Cold bitter night's nothing new
Ain't talkin LP Killer Mike when the saying run the jewelz
Pops never saw him leaving by example no ones leading
Man of the house yet no one showed you how to be one
Counted us out he's bound the throw away his freedom
Anger drowning us out a voice of reason Lord we need one
To provide survive look what they made him do meth
Got us looking like Thriller back in 82

Blast off cast off Stars away away away
Away away
Send that boy off away away
Send that boy off away away
Send that boy off away

Cycle never-ending bad beginnings ain't no happy endings
You and your bredrin made it home not getting apprehended
Risk-taking Paper Chasing fiends losing patience
Chose instant gratification over graduation
All he makes his moves no announcements addiction once around it
Getting fast money it's hard to downshift
Metal settles things on corners if you cross borders
Ops get a set of wings instead of roses
In this Concrete Jungle the models him or me when no window of opportunity it's B & E's
On this rollercoaster ride we know don't last long
Life in the streets a quick High then you crash hard

Blast off cast off Stars away away away
Away away
Send that boy off away away
Send that boy off away away
Send that boy off away
