HB Freestyle (Chozen)

Lyrics

[Intro: Joey Clipstar] Joey Clipstar, HB Freestyles Now, one thing I get asked a lot is, "Is HB Freestyles only drill, or only rap", and the answer is no, but you're gonna see why now Um, I know you guys saw "Talent Hunt, Stafford Edition" And, um, there was a guy at the end, kicking some spoken word And it was muad, I saw everyone going mad for it So I thought it was only right to bring him down, to do the whole ting here So we got him down, Chozenz shout BPG "Love Me Black" coming soon And Im gonna let the rest come from this guy here Chozen, Joey Clipstar, HB Freestyles [Stanza 1] There's two ways not to be a victim in the ends where I grew Gangbangin is one, suicide is two I've been running my ends for miles but you couldn't walk two in my shoes So dont ask me why I do what I do, just do you fam So what mean mug scared you a bit? Boo hoo fam Try living around these thugs with the sticks and the [?] fam It's more than scraping butter and A-Town fittings Round here, it's state gutter will get laid down in it You got guns and garments, eight rounds fitted Glow compartment with a tray pound in it I'm from a manner where the [?] roll deep and there is non stop beef so the guns don't sleep man the blocks so peak If my brothers don't like the way that you speak or they feel how you're acting is wrong It's not actually long I will have a man changing a dress like a girl getting gas for a prom You see where I'm from, it's rare for you to see youthes upbeat Unless we're talking gyal on both knees, we don't see opportunities to succeed So we take all our hopes and dreams and bring them closer to the floor If they're still difficult to reach well boy we lower them some more Until our greatest aspirations go from bringing change to nations into pinging Dave and Nathan to come to meet me at the station Where there's a debit card exchange Then I'll be getting the hardest chains I'll get me some credit, couple of shades and phone up my brothers Nate and Wayne to go to the borough's bait, it's rave That's only a couple of days away and out of my wallet has gained some weight I blow the money I made in a couple of days on bottles of Ace of Spades Slaves to astigmatism If ignorance was a pool, then we're swimming in the deep end So shortsighted we can't see beyond the weekend Of course, I wanna break through, but there's hardly any help and we're just tryna make do with the cards that we've been dealt If I could take it right back, build my life from scratch, I'd stack them Lego blocks proper Show everybody what the ghetto's got to offer Not just gangsters and the shotters, trapsters and the robbers Living like life is just a game of cops and robbers Look, if that's something you're proud of, I can't say I share the feeling I see in the same state of mind from Edgware to Ealing But can someone please tell me what the RAS is so appealing about a lower class living underneath a glass ceiling? Self-destructing our futures and then choking on the fumes from the blast I'm looking at my team thinking, who's going to last? If we knew from the start that living by the trigger means you die by the bullet Do you think any of my niggas in their right mind would pull it? I said, if we knew from the start that living by the trigger means you die by the bullet Do you think any of my niggas in their right mind would pull it? Instead of making our aims aerial, I became a stereotype and it's scary at times I have dreams of myself plummeting from various heights I'm falling at warp speed through a precarious life into a four-wall prison of a burial site Is that what's in store for me? You trying to take the piss? So is HMP or the Grim Reaper's kiss? When I visualise the future me, I didn't picture this I should pitch the prick that had me thinking ignorance is bliss But there I go again, trying to deflect the blame When the choices were all mine, I should accept the shame You get a chance at success and either take it or lose it If you choose to do something stupid, don't be making excuses The mess you made is your fault. If you hate it, then prove it Chase after the life you love instead of waiting for Cupid That's blatantly stupid, I'm saying it's useless waiting for him to come Your odds are like a billion and six to one Your chances are slim to none If I didn't believe that success was just meant to come, the way i would have chased it, you'd have thought i was mental, son The way i would have been dusting hard, jumping up and ducking fast, you'd have thought a man was playing Temple Run But I've abused second chances for i don't know how long I've done a whole lot that I can't be proud of Dug myself a hole that is hard to get out of and time to grow up is something I've now run out of I'm just trying to spark a change, I'm hoping you receive the gist and if not, what I'm trying to say through this piece is this If you think opulence exists for the indolent, you're pissed and you'll be dead before you live believing ignorance is bliss Chozen [Outro: Joey Clipstar] Juss like that Told you, its not only Rap, it not only Drill We want hard bars, to come down, and kick it Joey Clipstar, Chozen, HB Freestyles Let us know who should we get next? And know you know its a wider, variety Hopefully Ill get some different names See you next week Fumez The Engineer
