    Lyrics



    Cheh, This shit is crazy, Crazy

    It's one of those things man
    You gotta experience to know what I'm talkin' about
    It's where the goin' get rough
    The tough stay tough

    Up front, Let's go, Konvict

    We in too deep to turn back now D
    Watch yourself before you get blown away

    You know where I come from
    The place where your fate is a mic
    Or a bull or a dum dum
    A jail cell a pine box
    And brothers is dumb young

    Still bustin' guns for the slum that they come from
    Cops is the only ones they gonna run from
    They puttin' they hood up
    But 9 out of 10 of us ain't got good luck
    You're gonna ride on a man and catch 25
    Or get hit and get sent to the other side

    You lose both sides of the coin
    So me I play the hood baby
    Not in the groin

    Mama got a little church I could join
    But I didn't go yet

    Man got a mosque I could join
    But I didn't go yet

    Cool with the devil on my back
    I'm in cold sweats
    'Bout to do some dirt
    In some dirty black old sweats
    If you known you should've shown the way
    Most of the hood bout to get blown away

    'Cause I was raised up to show no fear
    Cowardly hearts'll never last long here
    If you ain't man enough to make shit clear
    Guaranteed you'll get blown away

    'Cause I done seen the block break down tears
    And I done seen the cops break my peers
    Tryin' to hold on to a couple more years
    Tryin' not to get blown away

    See I ain't never shot nobody
    But I'm known for fightin'
    So when I strike man
    You'll think you been struck by lightning
    Shouldn't have to prove myself by killin' a nigga

    Even a child could take a life by pulling the trigger
    Retaliation only takes anger mixed with passion
    See your target in the distance and keep on blastin'
    They say guns don't kill people people do
    So when you're hit man
    You feel that shit them evils do

    Can't see myself get beat down
    My eyes swollen
    Mom's cryin' they don't know what happened
    My pride's stolen
    If I ain't got my heat then I got a blade
    That hit you off

    'Cause I was raised up to show no fear
    Cowardly hearts'll never last long here
    If you ain't man enough to make shit clear
    Guaranteed you'll get blown away

    'Cause I done seen the block break down tears
    And I done seen the cops break my peers
    Tryin' to hold on to a couple more years
    Tryin' not to get blown away

    Keep my eye out for jakes
    Ears to the streets
    Other eye out for snakes
    And these scandalous freaks

    If we ain't on good terms
    Don't bother to speak
    Don't smile and try to spark a convo with me
    Same thing'll make you laugh it'll make you cry

    This quiet nigga, he'll take you life
    Hate for it to be the world's sacrifice
    If somebody else could travel
    Through the tunnel of life
    Cause I'm that type of guy I'll be there
    When you're ridin'

    But I'll stay to myself
    So if you see me out there
    With a bear we fightin'
    Then nigga go help the bear

    'Cause I was raised up to show no fear
    Cowardly hearts'll never last long here
    If you ain't man enough to make shit clear
    Guaranteed you'll get blown away

    'Cause I done seen the block break down tears
    And I done seen the cops break my peers
    Tryin' to hold on to a couple more years
    Tryin' not to get blown away
