St. Louis

I'm from St. Louis where we don't want take no orders Who gives a f*ck about yo race, we'll blow your head off your shoulders There are a lot of catholic schools, I realize that when I got older I was raised to respect my elders and clean up the streets We got Bloods, gangs, crime, and anything in between We gonna hit you in your mouth and tear out your spline There are homeless people yea they don't take no teams They gonna come into your house and take everything you need They gonna rob a couple of stores and feed their whole family While I was in my room I heard a know on the door I was with my big brother, thinking about grab dads swords I call my mom otp, she noticed that we were home alone Now we are under the bed singing lullaby songs I was raised in the darkness but I emerged out from the light Back in the day, I was an evil kid I used to sleep with a knife My pops told me this was an evil city, so I knew something wasn't right Taught me self-defense so that I would just know how to fight He said to keep your head high, so you can't focus on what's in sight He said people will try to bring you down, but Mekhi that's a part of life You just gotta move differently like you play a game of dice If you do that you will become Mansa Musa overnight But I didn't care, fucking bitches putting their legs up in the air Do you have a ride? She said that it's coming looking like bitch where So I stop, so I stop to think on wtf I do So I told her to get everything she got and don't forget your shoes So I'm driving in the front seat while we ride around the Lou She is a boogie girl, she can sniff the scent of my Jimmy Choo She just wanted me to give her food goofy girl I ain't no fool Dropped her off notice her mom was with 4 niggas in a room
