Time and money tell me how you spend it
Everybody want it 'til they get it
Fast cars jewelry and the women
Want this life until we really live it
Most my people come up from the trenches
Never had much in they condition
You can't really blame us
Nah you can't really blame us nah
Look inside the mind of a menace
Wouldn't show love if this was tennis
Hate in his soul got him limping
Broken pockets grabbing ammunition
Hope the money erase all the pain
Upped his coins now his mood changed
Late nights swerving thru the lanes
In a bucket thinking of a Range
Ten toes gripping every block
Ten hoes working 'round the clock
Ten fold rising like a stock
Ten four hear it from the cops
Copy that cop another pack
Run it back to back to back to back to back
Same shit just a different day
Tryna get it each and every way
Time and money tell me how you spend it
Everybody want it 'til they get it
Fast cars jewelry and the women
Want this life until we really live it
Most my people come up from the trenches
Never had much in they condition
You can't really blame us nah you can't really blame us nah
Time and money tell me how you spend it
Everybody want it 'til they get it
Fast cars jewelry and the women
Want this life until we really live it
Most my people come up from the trenches
Never had much in they condition
You can't really blame us nah you can't really blame us nah
Look inside the mind of a artist
Thinking of a luxury apartment
Bullseye tryna hit the target
Life disconnected I can't call it
Wake up write another verse
Scratch then replace hope it work
Came up out the mud from the dirt
Everything I write is down to earth
Running this imaginary race
Remind me of my peoples down on Chase
Serving rocks tryna beat a case
I'm serving raps tryna be a great
Late nights grinding in the booth
Ain't have no money for the stu
Fuck it put the mic in my room
Mad villain motherfuckers doomed
Treat 'em like the food on my plate
Niggas threw dirt on my name
Cleaned it off ain't leave a stain
Cleaned it off ain't leave a stain
I take ya hip hop license
Just 'cause you gotta sixteen don't mean you can drive it
I'm 'bout to suit and tie it
Business professional
This is correctional sentencing
Call this shit your indictment
Lock you up bars holy struck with the touch Midas
And they side with a brother like Joseph Biden
Yeah they side with a brother
Dip and diving
See 'em scrutinizing
When I spit lines is sick get the flu if you try to bite it
In the booth I'm the truth they can never fight it
Talk in peace don't you speak you got laryngitis
Time and money tell me how you spend it
Everybody want it 'til they get it
Fast cars jewelry and the women
Want this life until we really live it
Most my people come up from the trenches
Never had much in they condition
You can't really blame us
Nah you can't really blame us nah
Time and money tell me how you spend it
Everybody want it 'til they get it
Fast cars jewelry and the women
Want this life until we really live it
Most my people come up from the trenches
Never had much in they condition
You can't really blame us
Nah you can't really blame us nah
Look inside the mind of a nigga
Society like to paint a picture
Reckless beings with no real ambition
Tryna keep my niggas at a distance
Same cycles hoping that it change
Rap sell packs who's the blame
Systemic racists or the game
Pipeline to prison or the fame
Growing up I saw both sides
Tell me how the truth coincide
It's mathematic how we all divide
Subtract us then they adding to they pie
American dreams turned into night terrors
In the blink of an eye
Vision clouded tryna reach for the sky
Instead we landed in a pile of lies
Gimme space gotta levitate
Need a peace of mind need to meditate
Want a piece of mine I'm a set 'em straight
Elevate my mind need to medicate
Bodies dropping
When the pistols popping
Running out of options
Put 'em in a coffin
Been a pallbearer one too many times
So I write these lines just to keep from falling
Tell me who to blame
We can blame the game
We can blame the cops
We can blame the pain
Blame it on the block
Blame it on our age
Blame it on the rocks
Blame it on our race
But nothing happens when you placing the blame
The hardest truth is realizing that you gotta change
Nigga
Time and money tell me how you spend it
Everybody want it til they get it
Can you really blame us, can you really blame us
