7977

Look, I'm Sparring with beats
For some new pay
It's a new day
And niggas still got the screwed face
You would think you'd be happy
Too see me make it out the springs
But they treat me like
I got it overnight
And never dreamed
I'm a one man show
Never had a team
We kept that fire in the streets
Just need some Kerosene
So we can blow
And take it to the next level
But I never sold my soul
No contracts with the devil
Just hope you get to see
Heaven on earth
Cuz black people been in hell
Since the day we was birthed
And all they gave us was dirt
But somehow made it work
Don't never step on my turf
Cuz this game really hurts
Just making music and babies
I'm probably stuck in the 80s
And I was raised in the 90s
No wonder time couldn't find me
I'm probably out by lonesome
Rolling blunts by the donut
And niggas never gone run up
Because they know that we fold em

Ayo, I'm more hip hop
Than the average brother
I got this shit on locked
Can't take nothing from us
From writing rhymes at 7977
To copping cars and the cribs
That the kids live in
Ayo, I'm more hip hop
Than the average brother
I got this shit on locked
Can't take nothing from us
From writing rhymes at 7977

Gum Springs Rec center
Where I harnessed these skills
Had to battle some rappers
To show the talent was ill
Only 16 year old
With a lab at the crib
Make songs in gum springs
Shit, That all that we did
Come back to the hood
To show the block what's good
My name known from Lockheed
Down to seven woods
I might give out some sneakers
I might give out some money
I'm the type of nigga to feed you
If you look like you hungry
Let you kick it at the crib
If you need a getaway
Cuz I know the highway
Got its demons everyday
Just be happy we made a way
And take it day to day
Cuz nothing gone come easy
You gotta maintain your faith
Some niggas they want my place
But not certain they can handle it
Fingers pointed at me
Don't nobody holla at me
Rather talk behind my back
And make narratives without me
In reality they know couldn't go far
Without me
Wish I still was the kid
From 7977
Richmond highway
The origin story through a letter
Would I do it differently
Or embrace whats happened
We stacking
We made our dreams happen
Just from rapping
