[Intro]
I only be up with my motherfuckin' Glock
When I lift and I gotta be in step when I shot (Snow, it's a cold one, this one)
Shoot and I'ma die, they got me feelin' like I'm 'Pac
[?] be this rap shit, I got shit to get around (JBFlyBoi, oh, baby)
Ayy
[Verse]
They got me trapped in a maze (Yeah, yeah)
Uh, in Miami, ridin' wit' a K (Grrah, grrah)
I don't dot the door without my fire 'cause it ain't safe (Yeah, yeah)
Thinkin' 'bout my life and a close and early grave (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I came all that I can be (Grrah)
Now the crackers want my freedom, niggas wanna take my life from me (Grrah)
Conversate wit' my B-M, thеse niggas wanna take my wife from mе (Whaddup?)
Get up on me, do me bad and break down my dynasty
Niggas tryna get close just to stab me in my back (Yeah)
Fuck that, nigga play, get him whacked (Bah, bah-bah-bah)
I know niggas that wasn't killers 'til they became rappers (Wow)
'Cause these niggas will make you kill 'em, playin' the game backwards, yeah (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Catchin' pistol case after pistol case, tryna survive (Yeah)
I'm not a gangster, sir, I just wanna see twenty-five
My pops say, "Fuck that, thug life 'til we die" (Yeah, yeah)
I'm just tryna find some peace but it ain't nowhere I can hide (I can hide, yeah, yeah)
Tell them, "Free my nigga C before I break him out"
'Nother shootout in the A, I barely made it out (Bah, bah-bah-bah)
To make it home to my lil' girl, all I be thinkin' 'bout
Wish I could've took a safer route
[Pre-Chorus]
They got me down on my knees (Yeah), head to the sky (Yeah)
Finger on the trigger (Yeah, yeah, yeah), tryna stay alive
Got my back against the wall (Wall), tryna survive
Lord let me know it, am I comin' or am I goin', I say
[Bridge]
It ain't easy bein' me (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Will I see the penitentiary or will I stay free?
It ain't easy havin' fame (Yeah)
Will I see my next birthday or will I see the grave? (Yeah)
It ain't easy bein' me
Will I see the penitentiary or will I stay free? (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
It ain't easy havin' fame (Fame)
Will I see my next birthday or will I see the grave? (Yeah)
I don't wanna see the grave, oh, or the chain gang
[Chorus]
They got me down on my knees (Brrah), head to the sky (Rrah)
Finger on the trigger (Bah), tryna stay alive (Bah, bah-bah-bah)
Got my back against the wall, tryna survive (I'm sayin')
Lord let me know it, am I comin' or am I goin', I say (I'm sayin', whaddup)
