Lyrics

[Intro] Yo If I'm doing good, my man is doing good If he's shining, I'm shining I love all my niggas, man For real, I love y'all Fuck livin, this about winnin If you not winnin then you not livin You just existin Analyze that Straight up Yo [Verse 1] I wish my homies the best and that's the truth I'm on my grown man shit but tryna hold onto to my youth It might sound contradictory but actually it keeps me balanced If it ain't about some real shit, chill with the valance Critical thinking on the daily, life's a challenge on the streets Never talk to police, we practice silence Stay sharp, stay focused, make goals and achieve 'em Dreams turn to plans these days cos I believe 'em If you see my fam shinin then you see me, I love it Imma rep 'til the death of my team, no one above it Had some good times, went through some wild shit, some real shit But still posted up in the street like we don't feel shit Queens warriors minus the bare chest, with leather vest Forever fresh Avirex and Guess we used to rock it Hoppin outta hoopties hollerin with thousands in my pocket I remember that, seven patch hat, we on the a-train Hustle from the first to the third, that's when the pay came Lookin extra like a reflector, could never stay plain Made steel, rape, rob, bag's hot, stay fly Double Ls up in the mix with new kicks Usually rock Nikes but had stripes like Stan Smiths Niggas used to spark, stay in the park and play on Vix Uh Times change but the past ain't forgotten Thinkin back to when we used to play the apple, it was rotten Laurenovich [Hook x2] I wish my homies the best and that's the truth I'm on my grown man shit but tryna hold onto to my youth It might sound contradictory but actually it keeps me balanced If it ain't about some real shit, chill with the valance Critical thinking on the daily, life's a challenge on the streets Never talk to police, we practice silence Stay sharp, stay focused, make goals and achieve 'em Dreams turn to plans these days cos I believe 'em [Verse 2] Some of us grew apart and others closer Remember days when niggas used to hop the train and share a toaster Five niggas, one gun, chippin in on quarter pounds A few of us be workin, others rappin keep New York around Some of us hustlin still, others up top Drama got pounded cos they doubted like this block wouldn't pop I'm in a different zone, the future's home but never forgot See niggas that I'd idolised either get rich or get shot, BLOAW! Intricate plot blueprints tatted on brain waves Manoeuvrin meticulous, manners on you remain slaves Older then my age of years was based upon experience Movin diesel deadly in the desert like we were Syrians No regrets Add the Ws with Ls and then divide 'em Keep it movin, never lookin back that's how we ridin Providin jewels that only sparkle on the inside Back that'll peep a rebel, son, we been live [Hook x2] [Outro] Straight up, man Shout out to all my real motherfuckin friends All my homies, man I love y'all niggas, straight up, man Shout out to Stacks, the motherfuckin white guy Dave, Will, my niggas Science, Hologram My motherfuckin man Docca, what up My nigga Action He ain't just some nigga I rap with, that's family Know what I'm sayin?
