The Punishment (Lockdown)

You gon stay your ass in this house
And the only way you goin outside this house
Is takin out the trash or goin to work

Lockdown
Ain't nobody finna see me if they knock now
Crack the window a little bit to hear the block sounds
On the punishment the punishment
On pop's ground ain't no opps round no

Man 15 this seem big mean but
Did things shit brings clipped wings
Trouble in school I'm on punishment
Phonk in the hood I'm on punishment
That is the sum of it fun it is none of it (why?)
Cause I'm on dumb and dumber shit
Whenever my hopes found it
I got used to how nope sounded
In the gutter we eat peanut butter and wheat
Bout die from a choke sandwich
No parties no ho's pounded
Cause this summer I'm so grounded
I'll be stuck at that addy because my step daddy
Will never promote clown shit round this!
If you move dumb many rules come
Fakes and fools run he a Muslim
That mean I'm stranded
On a block in the city of Kansas
Locked in like I'm some bandit
And I don't under! stand! it!

Lockdown
Ain't nobody finna see me if they knock now
Crack the window a little bit to hear the block sounds
On the punishment the punishment
On pop's ground ain't no opps round no

Step dad is Muslim mama is devout
(Christian!)
At night when they both sleepin I sneak out
(missin!)
Fridays at midnight on Troost
If you break or pop the light on you
Do my routine real quick
Then I'm on a reroute (mission!)
Back to the pad wake up go ta work wit dad
He owns the steak n take 18th and Vine
Every day I work my ass off
Steaks and fish he had taught
Me to cook then pass off
Still when we get home the punishment's on
I see no asphalt!
Dinner time I asked if it's alright to invite a friend
Since I did so well at work he looked at me then he gave a grin
He said nobody no friend
But on your work day I commend
And if you keep sneakin out next summer
You'll be on punishment again (damn)

Lockdown
Ain't nobody finna see me if they knock now
Crack the window a little bit to hear the block sounds
On the punishment the punishment
On pop's ground ain't no opps round no

Now I'm thinkin why I was stuck for the whole summer
He knew my neighborhood was deadly and had mo drama
The times I thought he was being mean he really was so fond of
Both mama and me
And I quote these words I spoke are wrote in your honor
He knew my friends was getting shot
Havin run ins with the cops
He said he wish I was like (Chris Murray!)
He was my friend that was on top
Of his game and had a lot
So my pops knew the gang shit would disturb me
But 17 I ran away
I didn't understand the way he was prepping
Me to become the multimillionaire I am today
Kept me safe my family helped a lot
If I may highlight
I see now my step daddy all this time was pushin to save my life
L9VE!

Guap now
Everybody gotta see me at the top now
Most my homies back in the day today are not round
Cause the punishment I done this shit
In my town can't be stopped now no
