Eye for an Eye

[00:24.09] Who can I trust, i can't feel no love
[00:26.13] I'm just feeling fucked up, I took a L that's tough luck
[00:28.65] Rather sell than touch drugs needed help but none come
[00:31.04] To only say I felt numbs an understatement by a tonne
[00:34.08] Weighing up my options, feeling like I'm boxed in
[00:36.73] Weaving and I'm bobbing, while everybody's watching
[00:39.12] Failure always knocking, even if we take it into stoppage
[00:42.24] I bring something off the bench and get it popping!
[00:44.60] Weight up on my shoulders that I carried like a man
[00:47.08] I grew up in a broken home my mummy like my my dad
[00:49.77] All I know is pain man I can't fumble on no bag
[00:52.22] Listen even if I love you, do me wrong I do you bad
[00:54.93] I burn bridges and I turn tables
[00:57.32] I found a way to make it happen when we weren't able
[00:59.81] And I thank god cos I learned lessons when I weren't grateful
[01:02.59] Yeah I got married to them streets but i remain faithful
[01:05.21] You ever had a blessing in disguise?
[01:07.03] I lost friends I lost money I done nearly lost my mind
[01:09.87] Had me searching everywhere but couldn't to find no time
[01:12.25] I'm still out here everyday they couldn't keep me my grind you know
[01:15.72] Sometimes you gotta read between the lines
[01:17.62] If you couldn't do time you shouldn't entertain the crime
[01:20.18] When the blind lead the blind it didn't lead them to no light
[01:22.89] I ain't sharing out a slice, I teach you how to bake a pie lets get it
[01:26.10] Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will
[01:28.83] Remember when they used to tell me that i never will
[01:31.56] And i done things that I ain't proud of just to pay my bills
[01:33.66] And i've seen brothers lose it all while they was chasing girls
[01:36.69] For you change the world you need to change yourself
[01:39.32] Before you pray for wealth you need to pray for health
[01:41.58] My life like a movie and I play myself
[01:44.28] I'm still staring up at heaven, I remained in hell
[01:46.96] I've always made bad decisions when it came to women
[01:49.33] I tried to make her queen bee but she just left me stinging
[01:52.13] Tell a bitch plenty fishes, you ain't any different
[01:54.84] It's all smoke and mirrors, every hero needs a villain
[01:57.27] Shit... I used to be your only fan
[02:00.25] Now you selling pussy pics on only fans
[02:02.39] Out of everything I taught you, didn't teach you that
[02:05.08] Cos your behaviours mad, I could never take you back
[02:07.73] What example am I setting to my daughter
[02:09.76] If her daddy date a porn star?
[02:11.30] Probably think I found you on the corner
[02:12.87] Got me feeling like a prick for getting caught up
[02:14.78] You can't drown me if my head above the water, I know lets go
[02:18.21] Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth
[02:20.17] Truth in the booth, unless you're winning they ain't rooting for you
[02:22.80] I say my brain black and blue, looking battered and bruised
[02:25.25] But I still got the flame burning while I carry it through
[02:27.64] It's who, Big banks! I effortlessly stand out
[02:30.95] Get it by myself and I ain't ever took no hand outs
[02:33.97] I stand ground, ain't no man gone make me stand down
[02:36.37] Mouths to feed I ain't trying let my fam down!
[02:38.84] Tired and I'm ran down, tryna put some bandz down
[02:41.57] Stay poor or run these streets like I was Mashtown
[02:44.27] Check my background, some shit I couldn't act out!
[02:46.68] I can not wait until they let my brother jack out
[02:49.03] Rest in peace Jermaine, and rest in peace to John Mclean
[02:51.23] You forever on my brain, I'm lighting up a paper plane
[02:53.98] Tryna puff away the strain, no umbrella in this rain
[02:56.36] Rest in peace to Black the Ripper
[02:58.02] Yeah my brother made a change
[03:00.17] The pain running through my veins is hard to explain
[03:02.32] Lock me up but you still can't refrain my brain
[03:04.76] I've been sent by god to come and change the game
[03:07.20] I want money fuck the fame
[03:08.57] I stay underground like trains, Black The Ripper
[03:11.03] And I still say it with my chest, you're now rocking with best
[03:13.76] Until rapping pay I cheque, I still jugg and I finesse
[03:16.16] Ain't got no time to take a rest, you think I'm out here to impress
[03:18.61] I wouldn't hold your fucking breath
[03:19.99] I ain't nothing like the rest, I been cursed and I been blessed
[03:22.63] And now Im working with what's left, its time to put it to the test
[03:25.32] Time flies got me feeling like there's hardly any left, shit
[03:28.67] I don't even know what's really coming next
[03:31.32] I'm just a product of my environment, hustle for retirement
[03:34.83] Life been getting tiring, I'm nowhere near retiring
[03:37.24] You're either selling dreams or you're buying em
[03:39.23] Benny I got demons and i'm fighting them
[03:41.39] You make your bed you better lie in it
[03:44.69] Be prepared to lay down and die in it
[03:47.09] Black Lives Matter white people still denying it
[03:48.96] But the one thing about it the truth is we cant hide from it
[03:52.16] Without a shadow of a doubt I'm going down as great
[03:54.43] Legendary I cemented my place they gon' remember my name
[03:57.44] Daddy homeI just needed a break
[03:59.54] Now its time to put some food on the plate

[04:03.37]
