Uncle Told Me

When you out here in these streets you better watch thy step Don't you lose your life tryna gain stripes like ref You wasn't with me when I started so you might get left and You can try to steal my shine but I got anti-theft When u out here in these streets u better watch thy step Don't you lose your life tryna gain stripes like ref You wasn't with me when I started so you might get left and You can try to steal my shine but I got anti-theft You wasn't with me when I started person and You ain't understand my plan until it started working I should have listened to my heart before it started hurting You know I really hope I spark before they close the curtain Now my tounge on fire and I found a purpose You know I rose up out that water then I walked the surface I tried follow all my peers but it wasn't worth it I swung my sword and chopped the head off the evil serpent Cause when you out here in these streets you tend to lose focus These perpetrators still your shine and you'll never notice and When you try being humble niggas push your buttons But they be mad cause they ass don't be doing nothing Matter fact they want to hurt you cause they still struggling and Being broke really make em wanna kill something and When you talk about that money that's a real subject But when you getting more than them they act real suspect I overheard that love was blind and the pain is pleasure I heard that one man's trash is another's treasure I'm out the way and right now I'm on a different schedule I'm on the grind to take my music to another level When you out here in these streets you better watch thy step Don't you lose your life tryna gain stripes like ref You wasn't with me when I started so you might get left and You can try to steal my shine but I got anti-theft When u out here in these streets u better watch thy step Don't you lose your life tryna gain stripes like ref You wasn't with me when I started so you might get left and You can try to steal my shine but I got anti-theft I wrap bomb like a it's a grenade Then I get all up in the mix like kitchen bouquet In the streets it ain't sweet like its a brulee You better wake your ass up like its a new day Once apon a time granny tried to take him to church But she ain't understand the preacher was just making it worse He started off stealing candy now he taking the purse He started picking up the dice But now he shaking them first Cause when you out here in these streets you gotta watch thy step The same place them niggas find you is where you might get left Cause if the opps catch you lacking you get shot like Steph and You'll be gone till November but this not Wyclef Now your body on the block you couldn't settle a truce and They ain't even wear no socks cause they was reppin' the boot Niggas say they bust grapes but never carry the juice They go to war but come home and have to bury they troops Just be careful cause them niggas might be right in your face With a hundred round drum just to brighten your day Itchy finger on the trigger cause the nigga was nervous Now his family members at another funeral service When you out here in these streets you better watch thy step Don't you lose your life tryna gain stripes like ref You wasn't with me when I started so you might get left and You can try to steal my shine but I got anti-theft When u out here in these streets u better watch thy step Don't you lose your life tryna gain stripes like ref You wasn't with me when I started so you might get left and You can try to steal my shine but I got anti-theft
