…is knotted I ain't high as the fire and I have unused adrenaline
Came in the cypher clean, still smelling like putrid cinnamon…
…was magnifique, ya'll fuckin' with it, capiche?
Now the safest you woulda thought with a devil under your feet
They throw a shot and…
…or Flesh
But maybe I'm just hatin' cuz my black ass could never sing Fuck that autotune I hope the Futures filled with better things And…
…love you both and I couldn't live without you both
And my lovely two brothers always give me hope
I got a dream that I'm working…
…brother had a hard time, cause he was on hard grind
And I think he would rewind
But he's not that kind
Of man that just lives the life they…
…gave up everything and still hopes for that one day
I'm with you since day one, stay strong
One day will be like we just play one…
…love you both and I couldn't live without you both
And my lovely two brothers always give me hope
I got a dream that I'm working…
…brother had a hard time, cause he was on hard grind
And I think he would rewind
But he's not that kind
Of man that just lives the life they…
…gave up everything and still hopes for that one day
I'm with you since day one, stay strong
One day will be like we just play one…
…to complain when you sleepin' on feathered bed in my dreams
Made It cannot be deal with these fakes I met
These demons and snakes and…
…is lies
Niggas don't make cream but they wanna stay schemin'
In all day and night
I'm just makin' mine, I'm just makin' mine
Only got…
…ain't on no murder ting
Say they ain't on no murder ting
So put that money back where it came
I kept it humble till you ride with my cage
Nah, nah…
…a word of thanks
Fell in with a crowd in some border town
And took to robbin' banks
Outside the law your luck will run out fast
And…
…a few years came and went
'Till he's trapped in an alley in Abilene
With all but four shells spent
And he realized prayin…
…but right now Lord with my back to the wall
Can't help but recall
How they nearly hung me for stealin' a horse
In Fort Smith…
…crips was bangin'
When my homie said "Flame forget school I'm slangin'"
They skip school they bangin
Roc choppin' and…
…slangin', posted up they hangin'
Till he hit wit a banga
Now he's covered in blood but not the blood of Christ
His ice is bloody and…
…! Better yet go straight to the cross
The cross of Christ who came just to quicken the lost listen
The word says He's the judge of the quick and…
…crips was bangin'
When my homie said "Flame forget school I'm slangin'"
Thi'sl: They skip school they bangin
Roc choppin' and slangin', posted up they…
…to school yards of youth
Feel like I'm fastin' cuz dirty I ain't ate in a while
We been preachin' while heathens are fakin' a smile
They…
…is leakin' even more of a reason to run
Call me Flame cuz my temperature's 209
I feel the fire preachin' Jesus before we run outta time…

…[Verse 1]
Two tone—represent (damn right)
Came through with a mic and a check (okay!)
Looks like I might be back, I might…
…be back
I might be back, yeah
No doubt with that (okay)
Came back fresh, win a house from that (okay)
They paid racks…
…on Amazon like, "f*ck it, all these Targets suck" (they suck)
I'm optimum with prime until he turns to garbage trucks
And dumps out…
It's been back to back, losin' my peers over the years
Conversate with Gracie and Mil like I can hear 'em
This shit serious…
…', niggas ain't on they gangster
Remember I came from nothin', it was slummy for me
The city finally crowned me king, all…
…to God when I hope it's landing?
How selfish, I'm sick of the feeling of feeling helpless
I'm sick of the fear, niggas…
It's been back to back, losin' my peers over the years
Conversate with Gracie and Mil like I can hear 'em
This sh*t serious…
…*ggas ain't on they gangster
Remember I came from nothin', it was slummy for me
The city finally crowned me king, all…
…to God when I hope it's landing?
How selfish, I'm sick of the feeling of feeling helpless
I'm sick of the fear, n*ggas…
…[Verse 1]
Never blow a fire cause you know you'll get burned
And that's you thinking 'bout the future cause it's game and…
…other day that the reality will
Our brothers are dying, and now our sisters in fear
Because the killing people for cash they…
…choose to be their career
You know, the ones who buy the weapons hoping they're gonna win
With the semiautomatic so that life's but a sin
But if they…
…[Verse 1: Indra]
I'm coming off of my worst days
Seven sermons down but I don't think about
Preachin' on the block
Preachin…
…doping their hopes away then hope to find rope to sink them
Deep in the shallow ends, hardly escaping the gallows
Bet you cold…
…of my spotlight
Your future ain't, seeming so bright
Belief in the socket electrocute niggas and block it
Igniting the fear…

DJ Mykael V on the ones and twos
Let's get into this
[Verse 1: A.I. The Anomaly]
Yeah
I put my lyrics in the pot, let 'em simmer with…
…couldn't pay for this, I prayed, though
The greatest thing to ever happen to Daygo
The lonely prophet, live from the VLLG, came with…
…no patience for the jibber-jabber, tryna make a living
Been killin' it in therapy, apparently I'm winnin', switch
Places with my demons, they depressed and…
…deceased
(no)
Hollow misery was redeemed
(yeah)
Died on the cross all I need
Spirit came down now we…
…on fleek
Demons flee wen we possessed with thee
Thee who make me fly on cheese
(Raah)
Ma pockets were done dry like camel
Bwoy looked…
…no mbs
Addicted to Christ

Rehab ain't ma home
