[00:00:12] The Lord, the, the Lord's, the, the Lord's blessings leave me lyrically inclined
[00:00:18] The, the, the Lord, the, the, the Lord's blessings leave me lyrically inclined
[00:00:23] In between two worlds trying to get dope
[00:00:27] Let me talk to your soul real quick, homeboy
[00:00:31] Yeah, okay
[00:00:34] Apparently I'm not that rapper that y'all thought I was
[00:00:37] I was brought up in envy, I wasn't taught to love
[00:00:39] If said nigga had what I wanted, then said nigga would take it off or he caught a slug
[00:00:44] Your honor was expendable when you said it before a judge
[00:00:47] I'm in debt to the Lord above, but it's hell's fire that I was blessed with a portion of
[00:00:51] I'm possessed like the broadened grudge
[00:00:53] But the true horror is, the gift is in the present
[00:00:55] You never know what tomorrow gives
[00:00:57] When life was like Contra, forever blowing them cartridges
[00:01:00] Never hung with the sports players and awkward kids
[00:01:03] I gravitated to hallways and abandoned houses
[00:01:06] One man who couldn't stand, niggas who took the stand
[00:01:09] Ironically, now I stand for thousands
[00:01:11] Let's go, mama please forgive me
[00:01:13] I know you think I rap but I still squeeze the millie, sent 10 keys to Philly
[00:01:18] The label sent A&Rs, put the corner, put ARs in the hands of thieves to kill me
[00:01:22] Mama please forgive us, just take this money please consider
[00:01:26] You are where you at, the streets is with us
[00:01:28] Remember back when they were called police to get us?
[00:01:31] Now we drink champagne on the beach in Venice
[00:01:35] It's hard to teach beginners
[00:01:37] But how you reach niggas who hardly eat for dinner?
[00:01:40] How you reach them niggas?
[00:01:41] Think God unleashed the sinner?
[00:01:43] He did
[00:01:43] You niggas in the streets but homie the streets is big
[00:01:46] I'm not that rapper that y'all thought I was
[00:01:48] Nah, shit I was robbin' and shootin' before I caught a buzz
[00:01:51] Had one foot in the corner office, the other on the corner cautious to offer drugs
[00:01:55] Pug deals or drug dealers, was never taught to bud
[00:01:58] Contracts on how an ex-con acts, combat
[00:02:01] This can't be a war with no contact, this beyond rap
[00:02:04] Business ain't personal, I heard a few people utter their words
[00:02:07] But utter my personal business, I'm hurtin' you
[00:02:10] And that's just for your ears, cause I don't make my threads public
[00:02:13] I don't forget much, think history was my best subject
[00:02:16] I don't regret much, that mystery is the best what if?
[00:02:19] Hmm, let me think about that
[00:02:20] Either you press a key or bounce a ball
[00:02:22] Runnin' up in Def Jam, they had no reason to doubt em' all
[00:02:25] In front of L.A. Reed, still smellin' of weed and alcohol
[00:02:27] I came from the ignorance, belligerent
[00:02:30] But knowin' where I came from makes what I'm doin' now more significant
[00:02:33] Mama, please forgive us
[00:02:35] Just take this money, please consider
[00:02:37] You are where you at, the streets is with us
[00:02:39] Remember back when they were called police to get us?
[00:02:42] Now we drink champagne on the beach in Venice
[00:02:46] It's hard to teach beginners
[00:02:48] But how you reach niggas who hardly eat for dinner?
[00:02:52] Dan, thank God unleash the sinner
[00:02:54] You niggas in the streets, but homie the streets is in us
[00:02:57] The Lord's blessings leave me lyrically inclined
[00:03:03] In between two worlds tryna get dope
[00:03:09] The Lord's blessings leave me lyrically inclined
[00:03:15] In between two worlds tryna tryna get dope
[00:03:21] Get dope
[00:03:22] Get dope
[00:03:22] Get dope
[00:03:23] Get dope
[00:03:26] Get dope
[00:03:27] Get dope
[00:03:28] Get dope
[00:03:30] Get dope
[00:03:33] Get dope
[00:03:34] Thank you.
