chains

Should I use my turn to retaliate? I'm measured by the size of my caliber it seems mine Let's go Should I use my turn retaliate? I'm measured by the size of my caliber, it seems mine could make a lil room to recalibrate Between time hangin' by a thread, that's Balmain Street signs navigate our cities to accelerate, gang signs orchestrate my hood to boost the murder rate FaceTime reassurin' me love stayed the same, whole time they was in my face and everything changed Oh I'm haunted by the 45, the ones that I love it took those lives Stayin' up all night turned to closed eyes, that re-open the day that my soul flies Oh I know that it's my turn, waitin' on my move is a slow burn Makin' doubters react like sulfur, cause they see me makin' moves with a chauffeur Bang Nigga where's the chemistry? Multiply those moments niggas froze like a figurine Apply it to mistake you made, deep inside yo' memories Divided by the happiness you feel when you pretend to be happy I was raised where the kids would be nappy, still expected to make a degree happen I could say the outcome was tragic, cause in the end most 'em made it to a casket So throw them chains up, all them diamonds on yo' fingers put yo' rings up Pose for this like a nigga who ain't gave up, so I can use it's time to put yo' frame up Nigga I know they changed up, they kept tryna bury you once you came up So why yo' head down? Nigga lift yo' face up, so I can use when it's time to lift my pain up Red beam on yo' nose might knock yo' rude off Breathe slow relocate and cool off Cause we know what comes if you T-off, ACP's rip yo' whole Tee off Bad rules niggas made, became law You fightin' you seemed to steer you wrong, now it's you fightin' me and winner takes all But I'm through with takin' loses, got my back against the wall Damn near carryin' this world, who gon' catch it if I fall Tryna deal with heartbreak, caught up in this jigsaw Hella pieces in my puzzle that nobody wanna solve It's too hard to see the bigger picture peekin' through a straw I've been both feet in with no hand-outs, I'm outstandin' so I know I stand out I was standin' outside with both hands out, 'til I stood on my own and iced my hands out (yea) Shotgun sawed-off, got no one in my passenger Turned shotty to the opps and dumped it out the canister Turned shawty to a boss, learned how to manage her Cleaned her dirt out, that's only sum a real man will cure Jumpin' on a chance and made it here without no landin' gear Father's a magician, only trick you knew was disappear Under God's conditions, I still paved a way to conquer fears Life is a crime and we all servin' a hunnid years, so throw them chains up
