"AROUND THE BLOCK FROM HIM"
Ya grew around the block from him
When life had the option to
Live reckless, fast furious no one to answer 2
Culture was in the driver’s seat
No way could cancer mess wit you,
Algorithmic media and bots
Can cause your pockets to be lean,
But now we dream of this day
When we leave this empty hollowness,
We would bang Pac with plethora artists Houston’s nest
I’m tryna to invest but my pockets ain’t thick enough to let go
I’m putting in overtime just have a little blow
At the club, then the strip club
I got to pick my home girl up,
Her friends thick as well I’m pulling up
Thinking lil ma she different
Escaping from this lifestyle and build something
She’d pull the whole world with her stance
You would tell me to stand on my own 2 feet
Don’t need them distractions get your money right.
Take that time and find that spiritual light
I couldn’t fathom what that meant
Fast forward
Turn the page ya boi finally lit
​
I take that black meazy
And it break on down
I crush the tip pinching
The part so that it comes on out
Meezy in the cellophane
So that it don’t fall out
And I roll it in hands to get the cancer on out
I need to put it back together
So it burns and smooth
And I use the cellophane to refill it do
The final part is pack down on that tip so it sticks
Then I spark that mutha sucka
Bangin’ screw in the bit
Ya grew up around the block from him
Been watching how he walk with him
Cadence disdaining the evil spirits among thee
A student from the Shakur movement
On arithmetic melodies leading home
Fast forward, game told,
Mainframe been cold,
Never knew how he manifest his will but here we go
Issa funk, day 1 prophesied by those
Setting the stage for this brotha to grind is way home
​
I’m following and wallowing
And thinking about a life back when things was so
Simple we would
Grind and get the ladies was the function
Now we searching for the truth in Hebrew
Because we love him
​
I’m a gon lead the way
I’m a bo guard get in your way
The thing about heaven ya boi, don’t play
All my real ones line stand in place
In your way
I’m get in your way
Sign and sign in place
And I won’t play
Not about heaven's gates
I’m gon lead the way
Standing grace
Ohh I love Yahweh
I’m coming I’m coming I got ya
Ohh I love Yahweh
Only the spirits about us
Ohh I love Yahweh
I’m coming I’m coming I got ya
Ohh I love Yahweh
I’m coming to get the spirit up out ya
​
Always been homie I’m bout it
Always with truth, the Don Dada
Only His spirits about us
Gotta keep going, I’m bout it.
Northside of Houston
Is bout it
Always with love, for my partners
We used to slide, on them options
To get the honey
I often, dream about a lifestyle beyond this
Chasing them coins, Like I’m Sonic
Dealing with futures and options
Uniting cultures with promise
Battling the evil demonic
D’Vo the Codex with promise
Love in your heart, I acknowledge
To get to the only place you ever really wanted
​
The only place you ever really wanted.
The only place you ever really wanted.
​
I take that black meazy
And it break on down
I crush the tip pinching
The part so that it comes on out
Meezy in the cellophane
So that it don’t fall out
And I roll it in hands to get the cancer on out
