Stay True
(专辑: War & Wonders - 2021)
Ayy, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah Ooh On stage of life, we all play the
fool I
paid the
price just to play it cool Still in the
fight, don't know what to do Super One day in southern California, I
was moving free Hopped in my ride and hit the
corner, what a
view to see Had on a
t-shirt, no designs, left all my jewelry I
did my research, my surroundings wasn't new to me Scuff on my black and white Chucks And nothing but passion, life dust I'm rushing at a
liquor store on 77th where they be busting at all unfamiliar Where silence can kill you And that noise that come from boys that had 'em having to wheel you Around on linear ramps And my town the
city of champs If a
bullet rip through your spine and you down in plenty Advance to avenge your loss of mobility Accosting your enemies But in an organization, we play positions to remedy That's why my OG told me live Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this (He told me live) Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this (My big brother told me live) Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this Bitch, I
stay true to this 'Cause the
whole world is here for you (Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this) The
sky is clear for you (Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this) The
life is here for you (Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this) I'll tell you what to do (Bitch, I
stay true to this, bitch, I
stay true to this) Stay true Hood niggas do hood nigga shit Good niggas do good, the
would niggas do the
would nigga shit The
hood looking for the
jugg, they pull if you got a
hood membership On the
other side Of all the
love advice The
OG gave me, he said, "Smokey, baby, you could be anything that you wanna be" I
know you got love for these city streets But, nigga, your GPA is a
free admission to the
top of the
industry I
know you capable of holding your own But if they hating, better pick up the
phone You got a
whole army ready to go Before they get you, swear the
shit'll explode 'Cause I
give a
fuck if I
go to jail (Go to jail, go to jail) Tell all your enemies go to hell (Go to hell, go to hell) 'Cause your big homie won't leave you lonely, he gon' show up and empty out holy grail On my Sauconys and fried bologna, they gon' fall when it's 4DL I
don't care whether I
live Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this (My young homies gon' live) Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this (I lay down, just live) Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this (Yeah) Bitch, I
stay true to this 'Cause the
whole world is here for you (Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this) The
sky is clear for you (Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this) The
life is here for you (Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this) I'll tell you what to do (Bitch, I
stay true to this, bitch, I
stay true to this) Stay true Be who you're destined to be Things will entice you, but your life is more than testing the
streets Sex with a
vessel that's empty Nest with a
skeleton Get arrested, then them cells will connect you With a
lesson, should've picked up when wrestling action figures You've been hustling backwards, nigga Uphill on a
treadmill Now they will look like Subzero, they could creep on you, get your cap peeled How many more Black lives we gon' lose getting caught in the
rap wheel? Chasing the
money and big cars, pulling up looking like Bat wheels Then when you get it and learn that it's never enough, go tell me how that feels As kids, we played don't step on the
crack, our parents didn't know that crack killed Now many of them lay among daffodils Put 'em to rest like chamomile What if they best life wasn't as stress infested? When they got tested, would they live? Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this (Can you live?) Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this (I just wanted you to live) Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this (Oh, yeah) Bitch, I
stay true to this 'Cause the
whole world is here for you (Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this) The
sky is clear for you (Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this) The
life is here for you (Live, die, pray, shine, bitch, I
stay true to this) I'll tell you what to do (Bitch, I
stay true to this, bitch, I
stay true to this) Stay true Hood niggas do hood nigga shit Good niggas do good, the
