Use the stove to heat us

Gotta be fresh to go to school with fly sneakers

Schools with out-dated books, we are the forgotten

Summers cooling off by the fire hydrant
18
Yeah, I'm from the ghetto
19
With old black woman talkin' bout their sugar level
20
It's not unusual - to see photos of dead homies' funerals

Aluminum foil on TV antennas

Little TV's sit on top the big TV, eating TV dinners

My chest still cut up like a bag of dope

Spit Moses' lost commandments

Like a gross sandwich out my mouth

Toast to government cameras peepin' us
42
Every week I must have my cars, homes, and phones sweeped for bugs
43
But this is what I was dreaming of
44
Between cutting hard coke with new razors slicing my fingers up
45
They used to string us up; we wanted everything
46
But the one bringing us cake be the snakes
47
Like the, like the New Jack City wedding scene

No time for mistakes, tryna get it like Medellí

People afraid of criticism
50
But I always put myself in the sacrificial position

56
When I rap about war
57
They got a tendency to scatter

70
In the land of the blind, the man with one eye is the king
