Now these are your bitches,
phonin' lonely homie chickens
All the homies stick 'em,
you think you own 'em man, listen
She stab you in your sleep with
a knife from out the kitchen
Put a root on you, next week

Tumbled 'til you blew up, Feds

Fake bitches, actresses,
wicked witch practices
Two sides of us, negative and positive

Verse 4
your good luck charm
Pushing you to do no wrong,
praying for you that you live long
Nobody kill my baby,
but she know her baby crazy
In and out of jail, mom's screamin',
"God take me"
This is your pop,
chip off the old block that made him
Spittin' image of a gangsta,
the way pop walked
The way pop talked,
got older and you thanked him now
This is your hood,
poor folks drugs and robberies
Turnin' into the things moms
wanted you not to be
Crime followin' the wrong dudes
who have no values
Life's cheap as the dime in the minds
of those around you

Verse 6
entertainin' your desires
Bitches, money and guns,
aimin' and you fire
Everyday is grief, if it ain't beef,
it's feedin' your seed
Tryin' to eat? You form
material needs
By stickin' up niggas,
make them take they jewels off

What does it take to realize,
Satan's alive, he whispers
And any chance he get,
he can take niggas
He comes in all shapes and sizes,
his best disguise is
When he stand beside us,
but God is inside us, within me
And if I let go I'm dead
He stepped at my door,
the takes motivate my spirit
An out of body experience,
so now I feel it
Lookin' at my blessings,
the bullets that missed me coulda hit me
Them court cases coulda put
I never hate, that's just wasted energy
The past is gone, the present's a gift,
so what's the mystery?
C
Am
False expectations, appearin' real
We only human, love thy neighbor,
so I was told
my eyes are closed
