We Coulda Been Heroes
I'm writing this song to bro in the box
Feds put S in a fucked up spot
Now it's just me
Your brother and A
Outta the chains and ready to trot
Remember the days when opps got played
But we got played
Your stuck in the slots
I can't dream of a life with gang
Cause all of my gang are stuck inna box
I can't cope with the idea
One eye blink and they all got light years
It used to be drinks at Aaron's
But none of the gang still round here
I'm screaming out free my gang
But we missed our stage
Where freedom begun
I'm screaming out fuck my gang
But I love my gang
Can't wait till there freedom come
When they locked you up
We didn't stop winning
But life as we knew it was never the same
We rolled up the blunt
But tears start rolling
Filling his back
On this violent page
I turnt 18 and not even that
Could stop TMS on counterattack
One false move and I'm stuck in the map
S cheffed shh and his heart went black
I can't even think about life without sj
But he calls so think it the best way
Mothers are losing there kids
To the Eses
And no one gon get on there asses
I seen demons
That turned into ashes
And the whip
When one of us crashes
Can't speak
On none of there actions
But me
I gotta go get that
See we might be setback
But we're stuck in this shit
Cause we never accept that
We bring shanks and shivs to a party
One moves wrong
And they all get chest tapped
That's nothing but ego
With more on the line
Then shooting a free throw
There isn't a cheat code
Your dead or in jail
With no one to see bro
We coulda been heroes
But it's too late now
Cause they painted us villain
We didn't have no ceiling
But I remember the days when I felt that feeling
But the gang kept drilling
Now all of em locked and my heart keeps chilling
See ma head keeps spinning
I don't call this winning
Not one of us grinning
Not one of us spend any time on the block
It's pushups in cells
Or run from the cops
Yet the feelings forever the same
When bro calls in to say that his locked
We been singing a song for a longtime
But your serving a wrong for a longtime
But him it's really the wrong time
Ironic it ended with H
I don't got no choice
This one man step gonna forever make noise
We don't gotta be boys
But me,Mk gon bring us to men
Your brother forever my brother
Where we find milk we turn it to butter
This storm it's raging
And I'm doing ma best to not go under
See you might know Troy
But his all that I got to help this void
I don't really feel joy
It just gets at my head and makes me annoyed
So I'm using my voice
To tell all the kids
Before it's destroyed
See you wanna make coin
Then make it yourself you don't needa join
We ain't stuck inna system
We're trapped
Filled with a life of using habats
Remember the days when I'd hit up s
To head off to your house happs
There memories you can't get back
And there's memories u can't look back
Cause it'll break your heart
If you think
How many years that they might get whacked
It's crazy
We started as children
But we ended up far from civilians
We dreamed of making on millions
And we ended up far from brilliant
Can't change what happened to gang
But me
I gotta keep building
Like imagine the movie
If God was the one that's filming
Feds put S in a fucked up spot
Now it's just me
Your brother and A
Outta the chains and ready to trot
Remember the days when opps got played
But we got played
Your stuck in the slots
I can't dream of a life with gang
Cause all of my gang are stuck inna box
I can't cope with the idea
