whoWeAre
[00:12.04] Don't you want to see it
[00:26.54] It started off when I was 5
[00:28.28] Riding on my bike.
[00:29.53] To shootin' BB bullets at kids I didn't like.
[00:32.53] Then we laughed it off,
[00:34.03] Never did I have it all.
[00:36.01] I would be an act from crazy little things I saw.
[00:39.29] When I went to school,
[00:40.78] Mom would stay by the phone.
[00:42.30] Just in case the principal decides to send me home.
[00:45.54] I always thought everything would change,
[00:48.53] Sold out shows, people screaming my name.
[00:51.78] But then again the streets made me,
[00:54.31] Law here to blame me,
[00:56.02] Yes, oh Lord why don't you just take me,
[01:00.78] Off these streets, cuz I'm tired of running from the police.
[01:03.80] Don't you wanna see
[01:05.53] Don't you wanna be
[01:07.05] Street life got me running from the police
[01:10.29] It went from hanging with the stars
[01:12.52] To me running from the law
[01:14.29] This is just who we are
[01:30.79] OG, oh see, running from the police,
[01:34.04] I ain't tryna do it big, I'm tryna do it obese.
[01:37.27] Oh boy, from the hood, you can call him O Shay
[01:40.54] Okay, real life, shit this ain't no role play.
[01:43.79] Ain't no Hollywood, real niggas probably would,
[01:47.03] Set you up, put down, make you king, take your crown.
[01:50.28] Livin' life, yes I know, ghetto got me on the go.
[01:53.53] So I'm stayin' on my grind, cuz tomorrow might not show,
[01:56.54] Been through some real shit, y'all wouldn't understand.
[02:00.04] Doin' good now but wouldn't take half a grand,
[02:03.28] Wouldn't let the hand in.
[02:05.29] Ain't no silver spoons,
[02:07.06] Only silver bullets aimed with the extra zoom.
[02:10.06] They got me aimed on that extra zoom,
[02:13.53] So I keep them mad to plan on the extra room.
[02:18.03] Take the way like what they say,
[02:19.54] Cause that's the life on the streets.
[02:22.29] Don't you wanna see
[02:24.03] Don't you wanna be
[02:25.02] Street life got me running from the police
[02:28.04] It went from hanging with the stars
[02:30.27] To me running from the law
[02:32.27] This is just who we are
[02:48.54] See the light, that's the truth,
[02:50.53] All you actors play your role.
[02:51.79] Drop them cards, play it right,
[02:53.53] Swallow pride and never fold.
[02:55.03] I had no choice but to face the fact that my father's gone,
[02:58.29] Should I cry or man up? Proud to be my mother's son.
[03:01.78] Got a case and went to jail, under pressure didn't tell,
[03:04.78] The Truth, under oath, my heart is gold, I live by code.
[03:08.04] Came alone, I leave alone,
[03:09.55] Main line, walk the yard.
[03:11.29] Now I'm home, still grindin',
[03:12.85] Clock windin', goin' hard.
[03:14.59] Same hood, same friends,
[03:16.12] So fly like Jordan 10's.
[03:17.87] Won't change, born and raised,
[03:19.62] Trainin' from a black Benz.
[03:21.13] Poppa's tryin' to forget it all,
[03:22.62] Tryin' not to trip and fall.
[03:24.38] Grabbed my girl, walked them off,
[03:25.89] Face the fact, I want it all.
[03:27.62] Count me in, I'm all in,
[03:29.13] Product of the environment.
[03:30.87] Think you hot? Think you not,
[03:32.40] Turn you out like firemen.
[03:34.13] From zero, to the hero, right and don't call me out,
[03:37.38] Party on, that's my town,
[03:38.88] 9 Lives it's going down.
[03:40.66] Don't you wanna see
[03:41.65] Don't you wanna be
[03:42.91] Street life got me running from the police
[03:45.89] It went from hanging with the stars
[03:48.42] To me running from the law
[03:50.15] This is just who we are
