VOLUME 5 - TADOW

Lyrics

[Verse] Here come the bass, All of them strings Look at them breathe, The way that they sing Follow the soul, Where does it lead Maybe a stray, Maybe it's close I know everything, Fuck I don't know All I know is that we put here to grow And all I know is that I started to flow The minute that Biggie started Kick In The Door Now they're go them drums Notice the way they drop on the 1 I grew in the sun without throwin' no shade Built for this shit man I know what it take The big homie Tay, and big homiе Rock And Big Homie Dre It wasn't no gang But I know that they camе from a whole different place And not only race but they fuck with the way that I say what I say And now there go them Horns Throwin' em' up Wanna be strong but wanna be loved I wouldn't be Calm if wasn't for Storms The Thunder and Lightning that live in my bones You Quake in the Wake of a trembling thought Watching for signs, I'm dotting them I's I'm crossing my T's while I'm making my mark Never asked for your help, but I'm begging your pardon I'm late to your party, Caught up on reasons why I even started Thinking bout people who couldn't afford to believe But they offered a promise Who clearly are martyred But Dearly Departed We live in their honor It's been a minute It's been a while I'm all you got Hop off the phone He told me to chill Everyone died Even the dog And even his Pa And even his own No matter how cold I believe we could thaw No matter how old I believe we could draw A picture, a portrait or so Looked in the mirror and told him myself Apologize I couldn't formally help I ain't forming a Guild I am more like a Quilt With the weaver each memory sewn into Silk But what happens when homies get pushed to the side What happens when Neighborhoods don't got a chance Jamar if you heard this then hit up my line I ain't seen you since Saints started taking your land And to the mama belong to your grams Everyone talking bout Gentrification Without seeing Exemplification Fuckers done tore down like three Generations Made it a Benz Dealership Who the fuck you think we dealing with Boy it's Corporate Interest we competing with Pray I don't become no Greedy Motherfucker on some Gatekeeper shit Heard it's contagious, Whole lotta Gang Shit Keep turning these pages What more can I say
