Lyrics
[Solomon Burke] But the part of me that wants to change Fights the part of me that tries [Che Noir] Yo, I'm trying to find [?] proof when I spit a jewel Come on, y'all can't compare me to what these niggas do Selling drugs, that thing's apparent just to get us fooled Now the house so big, got a parachute to my living room The money good, but it can't be a problem But quick to put it on your head Bitch, I'm hands free with drama We grew up with daddy issues 'cause we can't see our fathers And they waited too late to tell us about plan B's and condoms No respect for a nigga that do dirt with his mans And when he gets caught He fold and he tell what he learnt on the stand Stood in the fire so long I ended up burning my hand The fire would struggle, wrote a verse, now my word is like a fan Now I'm on XXL covers Niggas and bitches from colleges to the jails love us Just a chick from the hood that's doing Adele numbers Hard to get your respect unless your skin is a pale color Life wasn't prepared for us The night has come and left me Just the light that you allow You had to hustle 'Cause that's how we was raised on my block And you stayed on your hop until you made you a knot The night has come and left me Just the light that you allow You had to hustle 'Cause that's how we was raised on my block And you stayed on your hop until you made you a knot [Che Noir] Before I start my day, I gotta talk to God My brother had the streets at arms reach but still got the job Pain on the streets, it ain't worth seeing your daughters crying I was that daughter so, you'll never hear me glorifying it On a high horse so I made me a chariot My family was enslaved by the gospel What's a slave when you're Harriet? I never knew we was trapped, pain made me aware of it 'Cause wisdom don't come from age, it comes pain and experience All that shit you was handed, I had to grind to have Momma from the streets so she had to hide the pass Momma always told me "Never follow in my foot steps" But I still follow with a magnifying glass Her and my step daddy [❓❓] ain't get married in the church He ain't my blood pops but he's been with me since birth When he was sober he'd teach me and prepare me for the worse 'Cause wisdom's the type of wealth you can't carry in a purse The night has come and left me Just the light that you allow You had to hustle 'Cause that's how we was raised on my block And you stayed on your hop until you made you a knot The night has come and left me Just the light that you allow You had to hustle 'Cause that's how we was raised on my block And you stayed on your hop until you made you a knot [Skyzoo] At first, a [❓❓] was made The purchases got exchanged You're able to play both hands? You through yourself a black parade Well, the food is free and usually, you get to watch the day [❓❓] watch your roof So you'd just be given your [❓❓] today It's sorta like a modern day Macbeth Where all the product make the steps And the crown is handed down It's usually why they wave the cheque It's like one size fit all, for the [❓❓] You call them hyenas parallels for a cell, they that close But we was close enough to see it all Hoffer ran a free for all The engine on the two-forty-fives was like a breeding call We all just want to part of the stories that's recited But never learnt enough Where there's a road and where the indictment at I surf them off the curb after I surf them off the wind [❓❓] It's three-two, one off the stool for your influencials What I'm meant to There's no way, nobody did it this vividly And all I did was follow where the wisdom be For real The night has come and left me Just the light that you allow You had to hustle 'Cause that's how we was raised on my block And you stayed on your hop until you made you a knot The night has come and left me Just the light that you allow You had to hustle 'Cause that's how we was raised on my block And you stayed on your hop until you made you a knot
