As I get a little older
I realize life is perspective
And my perspective may
differ from yours
I wanna say
thank you to everyone
that's been down with me
All my fans all my beautiful fans
Anyone who's ever
gave me a listen
all my people
I come from a generation of pain
where murder is minor
Rebellious and Margielas'll chip
you for designer
Belt buckles and clout overzealous
if prone to violence
Make the wrong turn
be it will or the wheel alignment
Residue burned
missed at a inner-city
Miscommunication to keep
homi' detective busy
No protection is risky
Desensitized I vandalized pain
Covered up and camouflaged
Get used to hearin' arsenal rain
Analyze risk your life
take the charge
Homies done fucked
your baby mama
once you hit the yard
that's culture
Twenty-three hour lockdown
then somebody called
Said your lil' nephew was shot down
the culture's involved
I done seen niggas do seventeen
hit the halfway house
Get out and get his brains blown out
lookin' to buy some weed
Car wash is played out
new GoFundMe accounts'll proceed
A brand-new victim'll shatter
those dreams the culture
I want I want I want I want
But I want you to want me too
I want I want I want I want
I want the hood to want me back
I want I want I want I want
I want the hood
Look what I done for you
Look what I done for you
Look what I done for you
I said I'd do this for my culture
To let y'all know what a nigga
look like in a bulletproof Rover
In my mama's sofa
was a doo-doo popper
Hair trigger walk up closer
ain't no Photoshoppin'
Friends bipolar
grab you by your pockets
No option if you froze up
always play the offense
Niggas goin' to work
and sellin' work late for work
Workin' late prayin' for work
but he on paperwork
That's the culture point the finger
promote ya
Remote location witness protection
they gon' hold ya
The streets got me
fucked up y'all can miss me
I wanna represent for us
New revolution
was up and movin'
I'm in Argentina wiping
my tears full of confusion
Water in between us another
peer's been executed
History repeats again
Make amends
then find a nigga
with the same skin to do it
But that's the culture
crack a bottle
Hard to deal with the pain
when you're sober
By tomorrow
we forget the remains
we start over
That's the problem
Our foundation was trained
to accept whatever follows
Dehumanize insensitive
Scrutinize the way
we live for you and I
Enemies shook my hand
I can promise I'll meet you
In the land where no
equal is your equal
Never say I ain't told ya nah
In the land where hurt
people hurt more people
Fuck callin' it culture
I want I want I want I want
But I want you to want me too
I want I want I want I want
I want the hood to want me back
I want I want I want I want
I want the hood
Look what I done for you
Look what I done for you
Look what I done for you
Take the drums out
Phew phew
Phew phew
Phew
Celebrate new life
when it come back around
The purpose is
in the lessons we learnin' now
Sacrifice personal
gain over everything
Just to see the next
generation better than ours
I wasn't perfect
the skin I was in had
truly suffered
Temptation and patience
everything that the body nurtures
I felt the good
I felt the bad and I felt the worry
But all-in-all my productivity
had stayed urging
Face your fears
always knew that
I would make it here
Where the energy
is magnified and persevered
Consciousness is
synchronized and
crystal-clear
Euphoria is glorified
and made His
Reflectin' on my life
and what I done
Paid dues made rules
change outta love
Them same views made
schools change curriculums
But didn't change me
starin' down the barrel of that gun
Should I feel resentful
I didn't see my full potential
Should I feel regret
about the good that I was into
Everything is everything
this ain't coincidental
I woke up that morning
with more heart to give you
As I bleed through the speakers
feel my presence
To my brother to my kids
I'm in Heaven
To my mother to my sis
I'm in Heaven
To my father to my wife
I am serious this is Heaven
To my friends
make sure you countin'
them blessings
To my fans make sure
you make them investments
And to the killer that
sped up my demise
I forgive you
just know your soul's in question
I seen the pain in your pupil
when that trigger had squeezed
And though you did me gruesome
I was surely relieved
I completed my mission
wasn't ready to leave
But fulfilled my days
my Creator was pleased
I can't stress how I love y'all
I don't need to be in
flesh just to hug y'all
The memories recollect
just because y'all
Celebrate me with respect
The unity we protect
is above all
And Sam I'll be watchin' over you
Make sure my kids watch
all my interviews
Make sure you live
all the dreams we produce
Keep that genius in your brain
on the move
And to my neighborhood
let the good prevail
Make sure them babies
and them lead us outta jail
Look for salvation
when troubles get real
'Cause you can't help
the world until you help yourself
And I can't blame the hood
the day that I was killed
Y'all had to see it
that's the only way to feel
And though my physical
won't reap the benefits
The energy that carry on emits still
I want you
