19s, but I keep a plain though Leather inside, dark-tinted window Wood-grain wheel, tell me how you really feel Ride past all the kids, yelling out, "Bingo" Talk a good game, Trey Wingo Speak in code so nobody know the lingo Life like a dice game, ain't no casino Street life, contra, ain't no cheat code Everyday on the line like a free throw Shit weak, like the knees on D. Rose I was taught, "Look out for your people" Meet Heaven and you got to know evil Heart of a lion, eye of a eagle Life a movie, but ain't no sequel Switch lanes in that new thing Got on that red line while I'm playing Flock of Seagulls So, no way we could ever be equal In the hay stack, I was that needle Hold it in, thinking no one will believe you Lose it all in a second, like Me Too The whole world is evil Gun shots echo, never be peaceful Smoking diesel to forget it all If I don't do nothing, I'ma ball Ayy (Ayy), got to get what's mine Ayy (Ayy), before I lose my mind Ayy (Ayy), like I'm running out of time Ayy (Ayy), shine light, man, shine (Shine) Break down, lock down, run up on a ball (Nothing that you used to) Standing on the corner, if you see me, I'ma ball Break down, lock down, run up on a ball (Nothing I can pass to walk alone) Standing on the corner, if you see me, I'ma ball Break down, lock down, run up on a ball (Shining on myself, so) Standing on the corner, if you see me, I'ma ball Break down, lock down, run up on a ball (Nothing can break down the simple floor) Down on the corner, if you see me, I'ma ball Ayy, got to ball till you fall In a system that's designed, one strike, take it all Ayy, all it take, one call Pray you lose it all, one second, all gone Ayy, know you feeling all alone But who can you turn to when things go wrong? Ayy, it's the plot all along Push you down the wrong path, the statistics have shown Everything that I known turned out to be lies Found out when I was grown so I shared that light On these dark undertones, had a nigga head gone Why they buy the diamonds and the car with shiny chrome My fault, all alone in the scheme of it all Played like a bong, had to stay strong Got my head above water, had to keep moving on Had my head above water, had to keep moving on Ayy (Ayy), gotta get what's mine Ayy (Ayy), before I lose my mind Ayy (Ayy), like I'm running out of time Ayy (Ayy), shine light, man, shine (Shine) Break down, lock down, run up on a ball (Nothing that you used to) Standing on the corner, if you see me, I'ma ball Break down, lock down, run up on a ball (Nothing I can pass to walk alone) Standing on the corner, if you see me, I'ma ball Break down, lock down, run up on a ball (Shining on myself, so) Standing on the corner, if you see me, I'ma ball Break down, lock down, run up on a ball (Nothing can break down the simple floor) Down on the corner, if you see me, I'ma ball The dream is realized, my heart skips a beat I'm tying my feet, the baby can't sleep Defeat the sun, reach, the furthest relax The weed is uncertain, why men attacked Facts is unlocked, dress is untied Mind could explode, time to cut ties
