Trials and tribulations
The bounds and limitations
The sounds of imitation
Surrounds the city
Chasing a dream
That's crooked as the frown on their faces
I think I need out, or maybe just a vacation
Smoking pounds of Jamaican
On the isles of Malaysia
And my eyes looking asian
From the Y-generation
More like high-generation
I done seen a lot of warriors die in the making, yeah
(Please have mercy on me)
Skin color brown
Like the brews we was sipping on
Smoking on purple, like the fluids I was tripping on
Dripping these flows got these pros trying to rip it off
Cheese make a rat go and tip it off
Still fly like the birds when I flip it off
Building on fire, made the girls wanna strip it off
Used to spend hundreds on the honeys we was slipping on
Made the money back from the mic I was gripping on
No day jobs, working overnight
All in, need a win as I roll the dice
In a heartless world that's as cold as ice
I face death till my soul is immortalized
Please have mercy on me
(Please have mercy on my soul, yeah)
The shadows follow everywhere I go
My heart is hollow like everything I spoke
I see no tomorrow
I live off the sorrows
And time that is borrowed
From everyone I know
If life is just suffering
Pain and some troubles then
I'mma need some help
Make it two, that's a couple then
Product of the perils of the places that we struggled in
Picking up the parts to the pieces, yeah that's puzzling
Got the devil working overnight
I said it's over
But my homie popped another fucking bottle
Poured the drink in the soda like
Yo I'm as fucked up as you dawg
Ain't that a bitch
How can I show you how I feel inside?
We Outlawz, motherfuckers can't kill my pride
Niggas talk a lot of shit, but that's after I'm gone
'Cause they fear me in physical form
Troublesome
