Lyrics
Yeah
65th street, nigga
Park side, Cherry side, all day (yeah)

Don't get murdered (don't slip)
Yeah, lil' niggas out here with no purpose (lil' niggas outside)
Loaded lurking (yeah, lurking, they lurking)
Rather get flipped than go flip burgers (okay)
Cayenne swerving (swerving, yeah)
Niggas ain't built like that in person
City burning (burn it down, can't save it)
Can't be saved with no sermon (hell no)
Still in search of (yeah)
Ain't no N.E.r.d., left some enemies on that curb (uh-huh)
I can not be perturbed (they don't talk)
I live out every word (uh-huh)
I put inside my verse (you know it)
I know my mama proud (you know it)
These haters wanna down me (mama, wassup? You know where I'm at with it)
Please

It's not what you think?
(It ain't that at all, the fuck?)
I could be gone in a blink, I don't wanna leave (he gone)
Yeah, it's not what you thought
(What you thought this shit was?)
We dying broke or live or with broken hearts (let's go)
Blower with a beam
(Hundred shots, boom)
Shine when I hit the scene (shine)
(Thirty shots, fifteen shots, yeah)
Blower with a beam
(Seven shots, boom)
Shine when I hit the scene (yeah)
(Five shots, two shots, yeah)

Greener grasses (get paid)
Made it out, don't make shit for the masses
When in traffic (still hang)
No, you can't be giving out no passes (hell nah)
Fuck a mansion (you lame)
Asked when I'ma move to Malibu or Calabasas (hell nah, you lame)
I can't never do it, I'm too active, she attractive (huh?)
But she plastic I can't get with that shit (how? Huh?)
She the baddest, but out here doing bad how that happen? (How? Huh?)
Yes, he rapping but, he ain't got no bag
How that happen? (Ain't got no bag on that man)
Yes, I'm cracking but, hard to understand how it happened (yeah)

It's not what you think? (I don't know what to tell you)
(It ain't that at all, the fuck?)
I could be gone in a blink, I don't wanna leave
(Told y'all this nigga's name great) (he gone)
Yeah, it's not what you thought (shit is fake)
(Thought this shit was?)
We dying broke or live or with broken hearts (let's go)
Blower with a beam
(Hundred shots, boom)
Shine when I hit the scene (shine)
(Thirty shots, fifteen shots, yeah)
Blower with a beam
(Seven shots, boom)
Shine when I hit the scene (yeah)

And I had Kel Tecs, Glocks
Springfields, Tauruses
Colts, all that
