lyrics
(Chorus)
They like run, nigga run
Catch a nigga, shoot em up
Lay em down, another one bites the dust
Its a war outside
Still I rise, just I and I
Kill yo pride, we never die. we never die.
(Verse 1)
All my life i had to fight, right the wrongs to make em right
My mind get lost in the lines,
Either ball or fall and i'm something like Mike
Fuck the hype I'm your demise These niggas jokes like alright alright
We move militant on a mission to give em what they been missing
Menace when the pen is given. God gifted, pure intentions.
Fuck the incentive. Keep it real in a sentence
Miss me with the "we miss you"s, all the fake, you niggas got issues
Make a meal off the skill of my pencil
My angle of angels aiming if the lesson is misused (yeaah)
I spit a ritual, plans to be pivotal. 21 that's a miracle.
Knowledge of self, I ain't never tryna mirror you.
Rather turn you to a memory. Rest in Peace my nigga
Learn something and take a seat my nigga.
Grind hard I gotta eat my nigga
You can touch the stars just reach my nigga (just reach my nigga)
(Chorus x 2)
(Verse 2)
In a life full of tragedy, either on the assault or victim of battery
Call in the cavalry, count up the casualties
Time for reality, all of the challenges
Ain't by luck that I managed to make it happen
Never slacking, persist to pass em , they pistol packing
Niggas dying they call it the chain reaction
When the chain is flashy they brainless with aimless actions
So when i aim it i aim it pass em, but aim exactly
They shooting with a racist passion, so i'm racing faster
They chasing, hating, cause they ain't where I am
Can't save the forsaken but for the sake of knowledge
Degrees of a nigga without a college
But still pull the trigga and catch a homme
Don't condone all the violence, speak my peace then I hold my silence
Feed the people I learn from prophets (yeaaah)
Rest in peace my nigga, learn soemthing and take a seat my nigga
Grind hard i gotta eat my nigga
You can touch the stars just reach my nigga (just reach my nigga)
