Generate meaning
1
They say, he was a monster from birth, so
2
Fuck it, I'll just a lean warn-os them hoes
3
I suppose O took on the street life
4
Even though my mother told me I could be otherwise
5
Wasn't the school type, I was too cool
6
My agenda wasn't general education, nigga
7
Generalizing Obie's expectations
8
It was like, a cu-coo in twenty-twos
9
Bad news my nigga, pass the brew
10
'Cause in a week we be pouring a glass for you
11
So rapidly homies become casualties
12
We was just playing Madden
13
Now a nigga sad for his family
14
That's how it happens
15
Dudes get blasted, another casket
16
Another child becomes a fatherless bastard
17
Make a nigga wanna grab this ratchet
18
It's so tragic and Obie can't get past it
19
And you wonder why a nigga'll flash it
20
Just to show these demons that I ain't having it
21
Put 'em beneath the grass in a flash
22
Homie I'm from the craft
23
And to make it where I'm at
24
That's called Soldierism
25
Real niggaz notice 'em
26
They wanna flow with 'em
27
Wanna do major shows with 'em
28
Get the fuck out the ghetto wit 'em
29
Heavy metal, leave a nigga twisted, don't fret
30
This is the set we live in
31
But I ain't crying or whining about my environment
32
Even though black folk is dying constant
33
Niggaz'll shoot you unconscious
34
With no conscience, until you lose conscience
35
Conscious and pompous white folk think I'm just rhyming
36
Just designing lines, just for the sake of shining
37
Like I just speak violent
38
Applying to the business I'm in
39
Rewind and find him in a dirty ass hood
40
With no sight of climbing
41
Moving on up was just 'The Jefferson's'
42
Rest of us watching the tube got less then them
43
So why you vexing him? Why you stretching him out?
44
He got the weapon all because his whereabouts
45
Born and raised, mental slaves
46
And I don't see change before I'm seeing the grave
47
All I see is my homies corpse decay
48
Crying at his wake, can't recognize his face
49
Face it, you not identifying with me
50
My identity distorts ya visibility
51
So you can't see me, peep what he's achieving
52
You receive information from TV
53
I'm in the hood, I live it you read about it
54
Rest in peace Peezy, please believe
55
Obie eyes've seen 'The Wire'
56
Prior to what you seeing on the screen
57
I done been in and out of the bing
58
Lost niggaz to unfortunate things
59
That's why, praise the Lord I'm still on the scene
60
Praise the Creator who made human beings
61
Just for creating a nigga like me
62
A nigga that put the umph in G, yeah
63
Wake up, I try to reach out but you won't
64
Wake up, my brothers and sisters, we got to
65
Wake up, 'fore you stuck in the system and then ya
66
Wake up, reality hits ya, before you can
67
Wake up, I try to reach out but you won't
68
Wake up, my brothers and sisters, we got to
69
Wake up, 'fore you stuck in the system and then ya
70
Wake up, reality hits ya, before you can wake up
