Sad how human life really means nothing to them.Also sad that they can’t just fight to settle these issues instead of always firing shots.
From the first version of Trae's hard-rap, ultra truth-pill style of storyteling in "Wake up"
It's a sign of the time
and everybody wanna be gangsta
they too scary to be a man and realize we in danger
I'll go to bat for every one of my people
I got níggas living in penitentiary cells
for killing they closet nígga, now they goin' through Hell
what it take for you cats to realize our closest enemy is us?
probably got you níggas scared to get heavy and get ready to bust
if it came to revolution I know we wouldn't last
fuck putting it the test, because I know we wouldn't pass
and all the while we complain about our situation
where níggas rather lose they life than lose they reputationand take it how you wanna, I ain't scared to tell you the truth
i only speak on what i know, cuz I been blessed the proof
and I advise we keep our calm if we ain't feelin each other
cuz the system been designed to have us killin each other
and that's for real
