For My People

This For My People You put your selfish ways away When you realize that niggas need you This For My People You got somebody to speak through Walk the same lines but we ain’t equal This For My People Praise you when you at the steeple You fall off and they gone leave you Is For My People But these streets ain’t peaceful So make sure to keep yo peace full But I did this one for home To reminisce on all my realness when I’m gone All those sleepless nights Endless flights that’s I was on ironically Left me right where I should’ve been all along They say when you got more people They believe you But when I’m wit my niggas You just feel that I’m deceitful All of that energy just seem evil So tone it down, turn it around Live is what we do (uhn) Raised in the jungle, but I came from the zoo So the instincts that I knew Helped me think my way through And I do it for my town Though they trying to tear me down but My name gone stay around like the blue store Did a lot but still gotta prove more, now I just want the royalties Care less about a crown Cause the things that glitter Impressed a nigga, never So we gone lit forever Now that I got shit together This For My People You put your selfish ways away When you realize that niggas need you This For My People You got somebody to speak through Walk the same lines but we ain’t equal This For My People Praise you when you at the steeple You fall off and they gone leave you Is For My People But these streets ain’t peaceful So make sure to keep yo peace full
