occupation is a musician and im staying true to it I went 
from
being a ridah to being a provider while I was straddling 
the
benz trying not to hit the divider just a impressional 
human
being trying to do right every now and then I get my manner
tested in fight like I used to have a beef with this cat 
named
eight and his homies approached me at the club at ray what 
was I
to do im on stage and im doing my thang and this niggas out
 in
the crowd trying to hoo bang giving it up for his homies 
and set
tripping too but he wasn't from roadie 6 these more like 
triaged

his

around

See some don't realize about the power of lyrics cuz when

the
things that can help us all ball but you can say things 
that

course
everybody knows that its bad in the hood so check what you
rapping about if it aint to the good I did my part a long 
time
ago I changed my views aint no gang banging slanging just
hanging with trues give it up to my creator and that you 
could
quote the mother fuckers still see me as a scapegoat yeah 
like

crowd
