Knowledge is Power

I'ma go on a run before I do a life sentence
I put my trust in the gun
Can't trust in no one that's just the lifestyle that I'm living
You need a book in yo' hand, pay attention
They wanna start with the shit I'ma finish
I had to grind my whole life, did some shit wasn't right, but I needed that one pot to piss in
I'm pushing player, acknowledge my pimpin'
While y'all sitting I'm standing on business
Dragging my nuts on the floor like a boss man, why they all say it when I'm from the trenches
Why they all say it my name in they mentions
Man I'm finna say it, I'm one of the best of 'em

Hustling in me 'til the day that I'm gone
Why all these hoes wanna bother my phone
I'm with all of my niggas, but I came alone
I know to move around like Al Capone
Oh that's yo' bitch? She got fucked somewhere, shit
I know I'm straight when my folks in there
Woah
Fuck it, we beat down the doors in here
I gotta bad bitch, yeah my hoe in here
If I got opps I'ma let it blow it here
I'm at the top, lil bitch don't even drop, that shit ain't gone go nowhere
Trynna be someone you not, that shit get you dropped, that shit get you pshhh
Soon as I got the location, pull up to the spot, and show what we got
My momma say "stay out the streets," but no I can't stop until we on

Now we on turn me up
Now we on, turn me up
I ain't going to hell, but I'm burning up
You just but talking I heard enough
We go to the mall and we splurging some
You can't be a boss if you working for 'em
That's why I got harder, yeah I been a starter, and I see they pockets is hurting them
Knowledge is power I need, I read, I do it to make sure my people on
I do it to make sure I be here a long time
Do what I want, and I be on my own time
I reiterated to them this my own vibe
I had to let go my pride and my old mind
Selling out for them that's something that won't slide
I cannot sell out for 'em that shit won't slide

I'ma go on a run before I do a life sentence
I put my trust in the gun
Can't trust in no one that's just the lifestyle that I'm living
You need a book in yo' hand, pay attention
They wanna start with the shit I'ma finish
I had to grind my whole life, did some shit wasn't right, but I needed that one pot to piss in
I'm pushing player, acknowledge my pimpin'
While y'all sitting I'm standing on business
Dragging my nuts on the floor like a boss man, why they all say it when I'm from the trenches
Why they all say it my name in they mentions
Man I'm finna say it, I'm one of the best of 'em
