One On One

I'm alive, had to cry to get through
Ain't no lies, we gon' give you the truth
Yeah, this is basic one on one

Had to get out of the dark
Sword to the floor and it spark
I got minimum feelings at heart
Crazy when family be growing apart
This ain't the energy wanted, no fronting, I'm marked
They chained the dog 'cause the dog 'bout to bark
Got it from start, but this ain't the ark
But they get awkward not doing the part, ha
This is just how I get
Everything on my side, got to mix
Any problems, I acknowledge it
And I can tell when they're not legit
Yeah, it's a war (It be a war)
Crazy, it be the people that you love that the enemies knocking on the door, ah

Now I know, had to face the truth
Yeah, I had to backtrack to find out it was you
Pushing all the lies, forcing me to lose
Yeah, I'm on the right track, now I know the truth
Yeah, I took some time, now I know just what to do
I done push my mind far inner, locked in with the tools
I done picked up all the signs, I done threw away the rules
Only way to learn the truth, break the rules
This is basic one on one

It's a lot we be going through
(A lot we be going through just to get through)
It could bring darkness right out of you
(It all depends, show me, how do you move?)
Sometimes we get tired of being good
('Cause it's some things that be out of control)
Especially when you still in the hood
Had to go modify all of the crew so we all survive
Couldn't go down, had to do the climb
Scanning everybody on the line, yeah
This ain't the first time that we formed together to cross lines
This ain't the first time we dropped bombs
Just like Alfaro we got arms

Now I know, had to face the truth
Yeah, I had to backtrack to find out it was you
Pushing all the lies, forcing me to lose
Yeah, I'm on the right track, now I know the truth
Yeah, I took some time, now I know just what to do
I done push my mind far inner, locked in with the tools
I done picked up all the signs, I done threw away the rules
Only way to learn the truth, break the rules
This is basic one on one

Still hard to guard when you're running the two
Hard to live when they're plotting on you
When I die I'ma die with the truth
I'm alive, had to cry to get through
To the side, ayy, with me if you're through
This a vibe in the Warriors booth
Ain't no lies, we gon' give you the truth
This is basic one on one
