Across the Street

Ooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh

We was taught to fight
Had to get it how we live
I was fighting through this shit
I been fighting since a kid
At an age and in a stage
Where I ain't have no place to live
Street was made for me to lose
But I keep fighting so I win

Steady fighting my demons
Way you move in the streets
Is way you keep
Ya head shouldered
In a place where police
A take ya ass off the street
And beat ya shit till you weak
Cuz if your confident
When prominent
When coming up from poverty

Obviously omnipotent
The ways you move indifferent
Across the sides, some niggas hide
Get played just like an instrument
Crazy no coincidence
The life we live is interesting but
Listen in and glistening the diamonds
They keep getting in

Wrist gone drip like water
Wet-like tales of fish or otters
Babysitting but
I'm shitting on these niggas
Need a father
I won't bother
To be bothered
By these fucks
That stick like Parker
Off the walls
They say we'll taunt you
Be a spirit I might haunt ya

Ooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh
Ooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

We was taught to fight
Had to get it how we live
I was fighting through this shit
I been fighting since a kid
At an age and in a stage
Where I ain't have no place to live
Street was made for me to lose
But I keep fighting so I win

It's a blood bath mayhem
With kids who wonder
Who gone save them
Got the kid trapping
For his mother
She can't save him
Struggles what we make of it
Money I can't break a bet
Once you in it
Chips encrypted
Ain't no way
To make it back

Shooting in the streets
Cuz them young niggas be packing
Rolling up they get to gassing
Light it up the spliff he matching
Taking action
Target practice
With a mother's son
Who active in the streets

Criminals meet
No greet can't see
The shit that happening
What's happening
Rap affairs
Not your spot no trapping here
Once afflicted
Ain't no way
To make it back from thereeeeeeeeeeee
Back from thereeeeeeeeee

Ooooooooohhhhhhhh
Oooooooooooowwwwwwoooooooaaaahh
Ooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhwwww

We was taught to fiiiiggghtt
Had to get it how we livvvvve
I been fighting since a kid
Fighting since a kid
Ohhhh
At an age and in a staaaagggeee
Where I ain't have no place to
Liiiiiive
Street was made for me to
Looooooooose
But I keep fighting so I
Wiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnn
