I n t e r l u d e

[00:02.24] I'm a livin' little good thing

[00:05.96] It's like you never lived for me, yeah

[00:08.96] Mama said you was a good thing, uh

[00:13.46] Good, good, good, yeah

[00:17.46] Yeah

[00:20.98] We came a long way, man, we done came a long way

[00:26.46] And we sittin' on top of this shit

[00:30.21] This shit can go one or two ways

[00:34.47] This shit can go up, it can go down

[00:39.21] Either way, nigga, I'm prepared

[00:41.96] Feel me? Yeah

[00:44.21] I be comin' in peace, but fuck me

[00:46.71] Best beware of the others

[00:47.96] This shit deep, undercovers creep

[00:49.21] This Southern heat make unbearable summers

[00:51.47] Just last week, seen yo' mama weep

[00:53.96] Crying 'cause she don't wan' bury your brother

[00:54.46] The blood lеaks while the EMTs gotta carry her baby likе surrogate mothers

[00:58.46] Woah, thank God we survived around where the terrorists hovered

[01:01.96] Though traumatized, wouldn't trade it for nothin'

[01:03.73] Through hard times, it was there I discovered a hustle and makin' the best out the struggle

[01:07.47] I kept grindin' 'til this day, up a level

[01:09.46] Respect mine, gotta stay out of trouble

[01:11.21] 'Cause TEC-9s like to air out rebuttals

[01:12.98] Cole World, niggas knowin' what it is

[01:14.71] Just in case they don't, I show 'em what it is

[01:16.47] Then summer, I do real numbers

[01:18.47] Couldn't dare touch it if they sold the double disc

[01:20.22] Block hot, niggas burnin' up the street

[01:21.96] Shots poppin' and we heard it up the street

[01:23.73] It's a war, niggas runnin' up the score

[01:25.71] Jesus said that you should turn the other cheek

[01:27.71] Voiceless niggas gettin' murdered every week

[01:29.21] Dead bodies, smell the odor in the street

[01:30.97] My homie' homie got out on parole

[01:32.96] He sold more Coca-Cola than the soda industry

[01:34.71] Summertime bring the coldest winter breeze

[01:36.46] Hella blues like the Rollin' 60's

[01:38.21] Christ went to Heaven aged thirty-three

[01:40.21] And so did Pimp C and so did Nipsey

[01:47.21] I told you, I told you

[01:52.21] This shit can go up, it can go down, I don't give a fuck

[01:54.97] Nigga, I done seen the highest heights

[01:58.46] I done seen it twice

[02:00.71] And I've seen the lowest of the lows

[02:03.71] And still I rose

[02:07.73] Now I'm at your neck, nigga, yeah
