Sink or Swim
If not you
If it ain't for you
If it ain't
If not you then whose all this for
If not you then whose all this for
It was sink or swim and I ain't give in to the current
Real ass nigga my convictions came with courage
So many people locked up in them prisons ain't deserve it
I was scared that's the reason I was missing at ya service
Last night they got ya killa I'm conflicted by the murder
Being from where we from means living with these burdens
Forgiveness ain't encouraged
An eye for an eye everybody vision blurring
Plus the police lynching, lurking
I can't make no sense of it
Caught you with them blicks busting
Then they post a vid of it
I done had a sick stomach
I been spliff puffing
I been fifth guzzling
I ain't in public
Boy we big hustling
Black Rabbit shit
Gave em instructions
Not to quit struggling
Till we inducted
In the hall of fame frame for this rapping shit
Drive bys, car accidents
Diseases all hazardous
Effects for the inhabitants
Of 815 madnesses
If not you then whose all this for
If not you then whose all this for
It was sink or swim and we ain't never have no life vest
Never knowing who gone die next
Can't ever let your eyes rest
Triple beam dreams turn to nightmares of that Pyrex
Five ten but got the heart of niggas that wear 5x
Used to fear running out of time but now I'm timeless
And when it's time for action know the kind I'm with is direct
Don't half step or side step
Turn up when that vibe set
Saw you for the last time and for the next week my eyes wept
Tryna figure out who all this for
If it ain't for you
If it ain't
If not you then whose all this for
If not you then whose all this for
It was sink or swim and I ain't give in to the current
Real ass nigga my convictions came with courage
So many people locked up in them prisons ain't deserve it
I was scared that's the reason I was missing at ya service
Last night they got ya killa I'm conflicted by the murder
Being from where we from means living with these burdens
Forgiveness ain't encouraged
An eye for an eye everybody vision blurring
Plus the police lynching, lurking
I can't make no sense of it
Caught you with them blicks busting
Then they post a vid of it
I done had a sick stomach
I been spliff puffing
I been fifth guzzling
I ain't in public
Boy we big hustling
Black Rabbit shit
Gave em instructions
Not to quit struggling
Till we inducted
In the hall of fame frame for this rapping shit
Drive bys, car accidents
Diseases all hazardous
Effects for the inhabitants
Of 815 madnesses
If not you then whose all this for
If not you then whose all this for
It was sink or swim and we ain't never have no life vest
Never knowing who gone die next
Can't ever let your eyes rest
Triple beam dreams turn to nightmares of that Pyrex
Five ten but got the heart of niggas that wear 5x
Used to fear running out of time but now I'm timeless
And when it's time for action know the kind I'm with is direct
Don't half step or side step
Turn up when that vibe set
Saw you for the last time and for the next week my eyes wept
Tryna figure out who all this for
