I was from The cops
Trying to make it off the block
Seen another nigga shot
And the body just drop
They put drugs in my socks
Gave us guns just to pop
I been dealing with a lot
And it still don't stop
Seen a river of my tears go by
Inside but I still don't cry
Outside I'm as cool as the rain
But I'm still praying that I don't die
And I'm still praying that I'm gone fly
caged bird n these bars won't pry
I been hoping god pick a side
And I'm still yelling god free the guys
I was running from the cops
Trying to make it off the block
Seen a mother nigga shot
Left the body there just rot
I got niggas that'll die for me
White gurls that'll cry for me
Back then they would lie on me
One whistle n they call police that fear my soul
I could fight any fight any my would be oppressors think they could win on me
I could live any life any life thinking that they can just take it n get from me
I breathe in any air everywhere nostrils so big it could fill up like 10 of me
Blacker the berry the sweeter the juice and I'm living off all my history
Trauma so deep that it's visually
Set in my chest so I don't stress it mentally
Physically I'm not gone Be where I'm meant to be
Stunted my growth and draining my energy
Flashing yo lights like it's nothing
Blue lights in my sights my Adrenaline rushing
My left and right gotta watch I'm clutching
My skin is a target they might get the dumping like
I just might get the running
Shooting back won't do nothing
He called for his mama they wouldn't do nothing
I'm praying for mamas n daughters n cousins
And fathers n brothers left out the discussion
And homies that's tired pull up n start bussing
Niggas that's with him that's wishing you touch him
I look to the sky for the hope to start coming
While I'm running from the cops
Trying to make it off the block
Seen a mother nigga shot
Left the body there just rot
I got niggas that'll die for me
White gurls that'll cry for me
Back then they would lie on me
One whistle n they call police that fear my soul
