Clean Slate

Tryna run this bag up
In case I hit bad luck
Seen my homie in a casket
The tears I can't mask em
Drove to the city for the service
Then I ghost like Casper
Sitting silent for the sermon
God knows imma ask Him
Why my bro had to go
My heart of glass is shattered
These vultures copy our culture
And profit on our talent
How is Black Lives Matter
A statement to be challenged
Never turn my back to 12
Them warning shots be deadly
Tell me, tell me were you praying
When I needed blessings
Made some changes to my circle
It needed correcting
People switch like Cal Ripken
And I just don't get it
Not saying I'm surprised
That shoe just never fit me
That's why this wall I got is high
As this reefer smoke gets me
Can't define by my falls
If you ain't ever stepped in
These size 11's
Jordan 1's over Giuseppes
The clock is ticking
Make love to pressure
When I feel it

Truth is
I been thru shit
Don't worry bout my past
Judge my future
Cause I couldn't go back if I wanted
Wake up
And start fresh every morning

Truth is
I been thru shit
Don't worry bout my past
Judge my future
Cause I couldn't go back if I wanted
Wake up
And start fresh every morning

I go where the sun takes me
Know that you been on the run
I hope you get home safely
I celebrate my brothers wins
Like they was my own
Soon as I collect my ends
I throw my dawg a bone
I know I got my mule and acres
If you reverse roles
Buss it down like Lakers
Smoking purple wearing gold
I don't ask for Favors
Like Derrick I get my own
Ride out to some Jazz
Made my pick and then I roll
Take a seat if you ain't saying shit
I got good weed in rotation
Catch me out on occasion
Get too foul you get faded
I'm a poet not a rapper
Ain't no box for you to trap me
Been chosen since I wore pampers
I don't do this shit for the cameras

Truth is
I been thru shit
Don't worry bout my past
Judge my future
Cause I couldn't go back if I wanted
Wake up
And start fresh every morning

Truth is
I been thru shit
Don't worry bout my past
Judge my future
Cause I couldn't go back if I wanted
Wake up
And start fresh every morning
