Signs

(album: Let Em Ave It - 2010)

I see the signs from this crooked life
Fuck my future, I know exactly what it's looking like
Me getting murdered, a look in time
Trying to escape, got me pushing crime

I see the signs from this crooked life
Fuck my future, I know exactly what it's looking like
Me getting murdered, a look in time
Trying to escape, got me pushing crime

I put my pain on the paperwork
When I write this shit down I feel to make it hurt
No mistaken words
I mean everything I say and I make it work

Growing up round here really made me learn
All about the hard way I had to make it burn
Close my eyes and I pray for Termz
I got the news in ATL and it made me squirm

Same time I won the BET
So every time I say it that's exactly what it means to me
So there's no reason you should speak to me
I open up my heart let the people see

Told them they better start getting used to me
Wouldn't be surprised if the police tried to shoot at me
So you need to open up the booth for me
Let me get inside and you'll get nothing but the truth from me

I see the signs from this crooked life
Fuck my future, I know exactly what it's looking like
Me getting murdered, a look in time
Trying to escape, got me pushing crime

I see the signs from this crooked life
Fuck my future, I know exactly what it's looking like
Me getting murdered, a look in time
Trying to escape, got me pushing crime

It's like every other day we screaming rest in peace
Listen to what I got to say cause the message deep
Tryna show them in these depressing streets
Nothing goods happening and that depresses me

I put it right out there get my message pushed
Rest in peace my brother bigz, he's from Shepherds Bush
Rest in peace Ruthless I hope my blessings took
It's painful, hope I make it to the second hook

They talk about gun grime and we reckless crooks
When it's our own government that get the weapons pushed
You think they gave a shit about
Peckham's hood
They drive pass and wouldn't even take a second look

It's only for the strong when you repping hoods
Other Nigga's that were thugging now they taking booge
Niggas struggle and we ain't far from fluorescent boogs
That's why if I blow, trust me,
Peckham's good

I see the signs from this crooked life
Fuck my future, I know exactly what it's looking like
Me getting murdered, a look in time
Trying to escape, got me pushing crime

I see the signs from this crooked life
Fuck my future, I know exactly what it's looking like
Me getting murdered, a look in time
Trying to escape, got me pushing crime
