Western Ave. Slaves

(album: Cozz & Effect - 2014)

[Cozz:]
It's the females that be hanging
It's the females who be hanging

All of this for a necklace? All of this for a Lexus?
All of that for attention, you been through a lot I'm guessing
A lot of drama at school, coulda sworn it was more electives
His parents did a lot of yelling
Coulda sworn it was more effective
Over here you better have brains or be a Western Ave. slave
Getting beat by your master when you can't behave
Only thing they got in common, they tryna get paid
See money is a thang, cause I know with money I could make that prom pussy purr quick
But I ain't worth shit, she don't look to a God
It's a man that she worships
Cause the man keep her afloat, as if they were ships
But you gotta think about the bigger picture
I know that nigga hit ya
You don't deserve that type of shit
You a queen, you a God, you a perfect type chick
I got this weed, I'll roll it up
I know you'd like a hit, I know you'd like a hit
You be stressing like a motherfucker

[Enimal:]
I know you been stressing baby, nothing but a Western slave
Chasing that paper baby, nothing but a Western slave
I know you feel the pressure baby, but don't let it get you baby
Nothing but a Western slave, we nothing but Western slaves

[Cozz:]
I swear I can't die alone, man I can't die alone
Promise to hold my hand while he's at my head with the chrome
I swear I ain't done no wrong, but shit we all done some wrong
But does that mean I should go? Shit, too late baby, I'm gone
It happens just like that, you could go in an instant
Momma always told me to make better decisions and I still ain't learned my lesson
I'm probably kicked out the house with no place to crash at, in need of an intersection
Better yet it's best I start from scratch, so I sleep with the dogs to get flea infested
Been itching and sniff a kitten in order to sneeze, just to get a blessing
We all be stressing, that ain't no question
No judging, just progression
Live and learn lessons, burn herb essence
Fuck the bullshit, we laugh tryna have a good time
Before we all die, baby we all go through hard times

[Enimal:]
I know you been stressing baby, nothing but a Western slave
Chasing that paper baby, nothing but a Western slave
I know you feel the pressure baby, but don't let it get you baby
Nothing but a Western slave, we nothing but Western slaves

[Cozz:]
Yo, Cozz & Effect nigga
Yeah, you fall, you get up
You fly, you stay high, yeah
You do what make you happy
